If you're in the Montreal area, the following event might be of interest to you. No idea why they're using a Google Map on their webpage but I've already complained (I'm not involved with the event).
http://www.hacktaville.ca/ "Profitant du succès des initiatives de données ouvertes, Hack Ta ville vise à développer des application s’attaquant aux questions de transport, de planification urbaine mais aussi d’agriculture urbaine, de développement durable ou d’utilisation du territoire (lieux publics, parcs, développement résidentiel, etc.) Organisé à l’université McGill, l’événement cherche à provoquer une rencontre des amoureux de la Ville, citoyen-bidouilleurs (hackers), designer, acteurs communautaires, universitaires et professionnels des transports et de la planification. Hack ta ville will build on the successes of the open data movement by exploring themes of transportation, urban planning, urban agriculture, sustainable development, urban land use, housing, parks, public spaces – and more.
