AJ McLean from the Backstreet Boys paid a visit to Montreal this week and even he's had it with the orange cones. With the construction epidemic remaining rampant across Montreal, we don't blame McLean for wanting to eliminate orange construction cones for good and it appears he's already got a plan on exactly how he'll do it.
Quebec Minister of Transport Geneviève Guilbault has vowed to "do better" after La Presse revealed officials have placed sets of downtown Montreal orange cones in the same spots for at least 15 years.
Sure, Montreal is known for its bagels, poutine and smoked meat but the orange construction cone has dolefully become the city's true emblem. Although no one construction cone is more special than the other, there's one standout orange pylon that has been garnering a lot of attention this past week.
