[edit]

Being part of the minority of francophones from Shawville, I did laugh a bit when I saw the "a.k.a Cat City". However, given that I see no other edits from 137.122.26.237, I am not sure this person made this edit out of good intention.

The only times I herd Shawville refered to Cat City was from our own child translation of the name and in high school in Aylmer, not in Shawville. I have never heard it refered to Cat City from within the town, which is another reason to remove it. There were alot of cats in my youth in Shawville, but maybee that's because I was a neighboor to Jules Landry :-)

What do others think?

I've lived in Shawville for three years and have never once heard the name before this. Though I do get the pun, it's not appropriate for a Wikipedia entry. Deleting. Mcwetboy 01:15, 20 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]


I grew up in Shawville for years my name will ring bells for years to come and it was never refered to as CAT CITY so please if you dont know just dont speak. Joey Greer

I was one of the francophones in Shawville, but I went to the local English High School. I've never heard an anglophone say Cat Town, but it's quite common with francophones...CSmith


The web site link was changed to the official Shawville site, but the mrcpontiac.qc.ca Shawville page is more informative. What do people think? jlam (talk) 07:19, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
