Charlie Biddle

Remembered as the father of the Montreal International Jazz Festival, Charles Biddle lent his name to the club that kept the groove going year-round.  Biddles, now known as The House of Jazz, was a draw for jazz stars and fans, from around the world.  Charles Biddle was made a member of the Order of Canada in 2003.  The Saint Jean Baptiste Society said, ‘without him, Quebecers might not have developed their love for jazz’.

    Wordle is a word puzzle game that was created by Jonathan Feinberg. The game is simple – each round, you are given six chances to guess a five-letter word. After each guess, the game tells you which letters are correct and in the right position, which letters are correct but in the wrong position, and which letters are not in the word at all. Using this information, you must guess the word before your six chances run out.
