La chanteuse Lhasa de Sela nous a quitté le 1er janvier 2010 à l'âge de 37 ans. Nous pensons qu’il est de notre devoir de se souvenir, par la nomination de ce parc situé au cœur du quartier qu’elle avait adopté, de cette très grande artiste qui s'était établie au Québec. Son indéniable talent, la force de ses chansons, ses prestations exceptionnelles, la radicale authenticité de sa démarche, ont contribué à faire fleurir le paysage artistique de notre métropole et nous pensons que sa mémoire inspirera de manière positive et profonde les générations futures.


The singer Lhasa de Sela passed away on January 1st, 2010. She was 37 years old. We would like to honour her memory by naming a currently nameless park after her, which is situated at the heart of her beloved neighbourhood in which she spent her final years. Her undeniable talent, the power of her songs and performances and her authenticity all contributed greatly to the blossoming of an incredible artistic community, and with the help of this park, her memory will serve to inspire generations to come.

I spent the morning walking through the park again thinking about how it would feel to finally see her name etched on a sign there while I listen to her music on loop. People have been messaging me such beautiful stories about what her voice meant to them during hard times and I am honestly overwhelmed by how much she still matters to all of us.

I was looking at the screen and realized we are almost at a hundred names which is just wild to think about honestly. If everyone reading this could just get one more person to click the link right now we would fly right past that goal and it would really force the city to look at what we are doing here.

creo que un lugar que lleve su nombre es algo muy simbólico y un gesto de agradecimiento por el legado musical que dejó. Música del mundo y única en su voz.
