Yup, the title of this month\u2019s newsletter is a nod to the classic album Dehors Novembre<\/em> by the quintessential Montreal rock band Les Colocs, which we\u2019ve had playing on repeat lately. With Montreal still in confinement, \u201cDedans\u201d (inside) seems more appropriate, wouldn\u2019t you say?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

So here we all are, snuggled up inside with our favorite albums (both musical and comic book variety, to be sure!) and maybe even our most beloved stuffed animal to keep us company. But we aren\u2019t just staying in this chilly month, no way! Because we\u2019ve got some great activities for you all month long, so let\u2019s get going!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
