Article in today's Globe and Mail re the Gaspe region:
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/life/...ticle19767692/

Includes this quote: "Further along the shore is La Malbaie, or Murray Bay, once a fashionable summer resort for the elite who would travel down the river from Montreal in grand steamships to stay in the Manoir Richelieu, a big castle-like hotel overlooking the water.

I would avoid staying there now, as it is disappointingly sterile and frequented mostly by tourists interested in the casino next door. It has the architecture of another time but the atmosphere of a bus stop
."

Ouch!
