It's hard to remain topical, underneath the 1884 Notman Photo of the Montreal Bicycle Club I used to place a picture of a ghost bike on the left side:

Followed by last stanza of the Flander's Field poem in the middle:
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though winged wheels roll
Upon Mont Royal.
(with inspiration from another Montréalais, John McCrae)
And a picture of Greta Thunberg adressing a huge crowd in Montreal on the right:

But as he Covid crisis unfolded, and the club had to stop regular Fixture rides, I thought this picture worked better.
Healthcare workers stand in the street as a counter-protest to those
demanding the stay-at-home order be lifted in Denver, Colorado, on 19

These as these measures seem to be easing a bit I saw this cartoon that I like in The Economist.
