Montreal's Pothole Hero: Saad Tekiout
Description
Montreals Pothole Hero: Saad Tekiouts Unstoppable Mission
Saad Tekiout, a Montreal landscaper, is filling potholes for free on his days off, aiming to keep his city looking sharp. Despite city officials urging him to stop and let professionals handle it, Tekiouts efforts are gaining traction online, with thousands cheering him on. The city has reported over 14,000 pothole patches this year, a significant increase from last year. Tekiouts actions have sparked a conversation about the citys pothole problem, with CAA-Quebec reporting a 48% increase in flat tire assistance from mid-January to late February. However, legal experts warn that unauthorized road repairs could lead to trouble. Despite the potential risks, Tekiout remains undeterred, fueled by the support of Montrealers.
