An apartment building in Montreal's Rosemont–La-Petite-Patrie borough lost a wall on Thursday, December 15, CTV News reports. Montreal fire department spokesperson Alain Laflamme told the outlet that the collapse was possibly due to a demolition in the neighbouring lot.

CTV said that no people were hurt in the incident.
