| Description: | Mr. Brochu, a.k.a “the Boss,” runs his gas station as best he can, despite repeated thefts and hold-ups, competition from the self-serve stations in the neighbourhood, the onset of Parkinson’s, and his strained relationship with his two eldest sons–who want more out of life than running the Champlain gas station. Through these small tragedies, we meet the local regulars who come every day to hang around, swap gossip and share a good laugh or two. |
