Blue Bonnets may have had its last race (Montreal Gazette)
From The Montreal Gazette:

Racetrack rituals haven't changed much in 101 years, which is how long Blue Bonnets racetrack (now known as Hippodrome de Montréal) has been part of the fabric of this city.
But live racing at Hippodrome de Montréal was abruptly cancelled at the Décarie Blvd. oval two weeks ago after racetrack operator Attractions Hippiques filed for creditor protection.
With no word on when it will resume, if ever, there's been a quiet exodus of horses from the barns adjacent to the racetrack.
