All stout Celts here!
Two well-fed bagpipers pose at Montreal's first International Celtic Festival, held June 17-18 on the grounds of the Douglas Hospital in Verdun. Wicker men--like the guy in the middle--were used by ancient tribes in the execution-by-burning of social undesirables. But modern times are gentler, and alongside thousands of weekend Celts, the festival was attended by psychiatric patients at the Douglas.
