Fete de Nuit Fireworks Highlight Quebec Exhibition
The Quebec Fete de Nuit displayed heavy Roman candles bombs and rockets as crowds watched a celebrated show. The bombardment ended with a cease fire as garrison forces repelled attackers and the display earned high praise for its quality. E W Beatty praised Canadian Pacific Railway for 249 million dollars in capital spending and over 1,000 miles of branch lines in five years at the Montreal address to the Canadian Industrial Traffic League. Saint John grain exports rose in December 1929 and early January with 508367 export tons in December and 651438 in the first seventeen days of January.
