In 1973, the Radio-Canada tower bore witness to the effervescence of our society. The new Crown corporation building brought together all of its craftsmen in one place. Aline Desjardins, retired journalist and host, and Michel Lacombe, journalist and host, share their memories of this place.

“This place had souls”, says Aline Desjardins, who hosted the show. Today’s woman. “You couldn’t go out in a corridor without meeting a star, an actor,” adds Michel Lacombe. Both regret, however, the end of productions on the premises.

Moreover, before getting to the heart of the matter, they pay tribute to host Minou Petrowski, who passed away on April 27th. “She was a free spirit, a great seductress and a strong mouth,” says Aline Desjardins. Very moved, Michel Lacombe, his son-in-law, agrees.
