Because you asked ... Tom Mulcair's flophouse

It might not be obvious by looking at his knee-dipping, Outremont-winning, environment-championing puss today, but Thomas Mulcair was once a Lay's-munching, dish-not-doing, let's-check-out-Saturday-in-the-Park homeboy. In answer to your deluge of requests about where he used to shack down, we (and Bing and Lovell's) bring you this scoop about the cheap kinda $200ish flat this dulcet-toned political survivor used to do his homework in.This listing is from 1977. As a student Thomas Mulciar lived at 6720 Sherbrooke, just west of NDG Park.

Hey, that's near Persian hangouts Zam Zam and Akhavan. Green guy ... Green Revolution. Coincidence?

  2. You can use Bing to search the Lovell's directory on the banq site?

    Here's another question: is Tom Mulcair the son of the doctor on that Lovell's list? As I recall my mother's reminiscences, Dr. Mulcair delivered me at St. Mary's and I went to grade school with another of the Mulcairs on that list, but I don't know whether the politician is related to them.

    Dr. Mulcair delivered a few Peabody cousins too.

  4. Zadcat: Word is that Mulcair originated in Ottawa. Bing is cool, because it gives you Sherbrooke W instead of Sherbrooke O -- and the pictures are cooler at an angle like that. And no it doesn't work with Lovell's -- it's all legwork, as a cutting-edge blogger like you already know.

  5. I would also like to know if Tom Mulcair is related to the gynecologist Dr. Mulcair at St. Mary's. He was my doctor and he was the best!

  7. Jean: Lovell's available online from the BNQ from 1842-2000. Hopefully they'll add more years soon.
