From Bad To Worse
Some of the people present during the time the canal had been drained spoke about the shocking revelation it had resulted in. They were not holding anything back. “That’s Paris for you,” one person named Bernard who was a bystander to the whole cleaning incident commented. “It’s filthy.” “The last time, I don’t remember seeing so much rubbish in it,” he continued as he spoke about the amount of garbage the canal had collected. “I despair. The youngsters are using it as a dustbin.” After hearing such comments from a Parisian himself, you have to wonder if Paris is indeed a dirty place where people do not follow common decency when it comes to public hygiene.
