The sun shone on the 190th annual Saint Patrick’s Day parade in Montreal Sunday and green was the official color of the day

Despite mid-winter like temperatures and a brisk wind tens of thousands of people lined Ste-Catherine Street to enjoy the festivities.

Many people showed up well in advance of the noon start time to ensure a good view of the myriad floats, marching bands and other participants along the two kilometer long parade route.

Montreal police report no major incidents.
