In arriving to Matane we stopped off @ the local ski doo dealer - Andre Halle & Fils -  here in Matane QC. WOW ! Great inventory . Obviously only recently opened. Jean-guy Hallé I think you posted photos of the grand opening some months back. 

The service writer David Rioux couldn’t be nicer. He represents the Ski-Doo product well. 

Because of D. Rioux’ professionalisms our machines are getting their first service in accordance to the current mileage recommended in the service manual. 

Customer service @ it’s best. Highly recommended .

We came across this snowblower in the “rhubarb” outside of Rimouski. We watched the plow truck come to the rescue. They placed a chain to both front ends and the snowblower easily popped out of the ditch.
