Montreal Grand Prix

Shame on the Grand Prix organizers.  

The Grand Prix organizers released a schedule for the 2009 season and it did not include its normal stop in Montreal Canada.  No phone call, no email, they did not even have the courtesy to contact the city of Montreal to inform them that they no longer wanted to come to there great City. 
 
The Grand Prix in Montreal brings more than 300,000 fans to the area and puts over $80 Million Dollars into the Montreal Economy.  It is not only good for Canada and Montreal but it has also been good for the Grand Prix.  

What i find particularly shameful is that the Grand Prix has forgotten a city that was there for them when they were starting out.  Montreal has brought them a lot of money, and a lot of fans over the years.  And to just cut them out of it with no advanced notice or talks is disgusting in my books.

The Grand Prix has lost one fan for good, and has lost many many others i am sure.
