“Mutantism on the March” :Chapter 79 “Is Montreal to Become Home for an American Nuclear Base?”

One chilly fall afternoon a class of engineering students from Montreal’s McSwill University were surveying the City’s Mont Royal with sophisticated hollowmeters they had developed for a project.

Jiber thought it was time to give his crew a talk and hand out some orders. He spoke to them under a grove of maple trees in a deserted part of the Montreal suburb Hudson. “Comrades.

Jiber ordered a quick retreat from Expo 67 and they landed on a green field surrounded by majestic buildings. A sign nearby said “McSwill University”.
