It's April 30th. Welcome in. This is Canada News today, where local news meets AI. A recent Concordia University grad just dropped a free app that maps out parking tickets across Montreal in real time. It's called MTL Parking, and it pulls data straight from the city's public system every night, turning addresses into dots on an interactive map, so you can spot the danger zones before you park. The clever part is how he cracked the city's ticket numbering pattern by solving a math puzzle to grab the info systematically without any login. Hassel. No more digging through spreadsheets. This thing makes it dead simple for anyone to see where tickets fly. Drivers are loving it because parking in Montreal is already a headache with construction, bike lanes, and tricky signs. On April 9th alone, 950 tickets went out city-wide, and spots like 8,699 boulevards St. Michel. Rectub 12 in one Saturday afternoon, showing the officers whole route from time stamps.

Hot spots pop up on downtown streets, busy commercial areas, and places with confusing rules, helping folks avoid those fines and rethink risky choices. It's already highlighting patterns that were buried in raw data before. He's gearing up filters, time-based breakdowns, alerts for bad streets, and even a mobile version since that's where you'll check before pulling over. Head to mtlparking.versail.app to dodge the ticket trap and stay one step ahead in this city.
