Let me introduce you to the city where I work, a dynamic city located in the heart of the Laurentians: Sainte-Agathe-des-Monts
Current information

In 1951, two years before being crowned Queen of England, Princess Elizabeth came to Sainte-Agathe-des-Monts with her husband, the Duke of Edinburgh. They attended a religious ceremony at Holy Trinity Church (where I got married !!!).
Twinning with our French cousins...
At 28 km east of Paris, within Marne and Gondoire, Lagny-sur-Marne seems to cultivate the charm of a provincial town, beautiful, friendly and dynamic. Its heritage, geography and business appeal.
In 1969, the city of Sainte-Agathe-des-Monts signed a friendship pact with the city of Lagny-sur-Marne in France. Since then, several agathois have participated in cultural exchanges over the years while a program of the Association Quebec-France allows students to experience work in French soil during the summer. The City wanted to highlight this long friendship by giving the name of Place Lagny to the main gathering place of Agathois with a privileged panorama and located downtown on the shores of Lac des Sables.
Does anyone know Lagny-sur-Marne?
I plan to go to France eventually, in the Paris region ... is this destination worth seeing?
