Singers of the Maîtrise Notre-Dame de Paris called off last night’s Christmas concert at Saint-Sulpice church, as well as all other seasonal events, in protest at the dismissal of several members of the adult chorus.

The cathedral is making cutbacks after suffering the loss of one-quarter of its revenues as a result of the devastating fire. On the plus side, it has raised 922 million Euros in donations.

Whatever.

Tis the season to be striking.
