Kirkland Parking Frustrates REM Commuters

New REM line to Montreal’s West Island is sparking parking chaos at Kirkland station—just 200 spots reserved for residents, leaving commuters stuck with $80–$100 tickets for parking elsewhere. While Kirkland secured the spots months ago with mall owners, neighbors are furious. REM says they’re open to solutions, already added 300 free spots at Fairview-Pointe-Claire, and are watching usage to adjust. Some suggest opening up Kirkland’s spots to all, if they’re underused.
