Quebecers’ favorite comedian died last week. He was 72 years old.
The public can say goodbye to him from 1pm to 5pm and from 6pm to 9pm at the National Monument on Boulevard Saint-Laurent. The actor’s family will be present.
And in Quebec today, the flag of the central tower of the Parliament building flies at half-staff in honor of the actor.
Today, the flag flies at half-mast atop the central tower of the Quebec National Assembly. On behalf of myself and all my colleagues in Parliament, I offer my sincere condolences to the family and loved ones of the great Michel Côté.⚜️ pic.twitter.com/e7Qdpk2V7f
