Here are the Montreal-area schools closed today due to ice storm
Many school boards and school service centres in and around Montreal are closed Thursday as hundreds of thousands of households are in the dark from a major ice storm.
The weather system has coated southern Quebec in ice, causing trees to topple over and hydro wires to snap. As of 11 p.m., just over 1 million Hydro-Quebec customers were without power across the province.
Here are some of the school boards and school service centres that are closed Thursday.
