One portion of an historic church in Lowertown is up and running once again. Patrick McDonald, the owner of St. Brigid’s Cathedral, calls the relaunch of St. Brigid’s Well an important step in a return to normalcy. However, the long road back doesn’t stop with the Irish pub’s reopening, as the chapel’s lighting system was dismantled by The United People of Canada during their short-lived rental. And while McDonald plans to transform the property into an Irish cultural centre, the fight with TUPOC isn’t over yet, as the group plans to appeal its eviction.
