‘First queer bar in Montreal’ is now hiring

Val Desjardins, the newest promoter behind Faggity Ass Fridays, is hiring for her new venture, which is being billed as the first queer bar in Montreal (corner of St-Laurent and Bernard). I guess that’s true, though all the homo bars (ok, minus L’Aigle Noir) have been unofficially queer. Or maybe she means queer as in leather or denim, cut-off jacket mandatory? Anyway, they’re opening in one month! They need:

  • bartenders
  • managers with experience
