100 Strangers Project Part 32

Meet: André Durant

André is 78 years old. He worked in the mines in northern Quebec for 33 years. He almost got killed a few times in those mines, he says. Copper was the main element back then but then it changed to gold and silver. He has one son who lives in Three Rivers. Now that he is retired he loves to spend time on the computer, yet he says he doesn't really know how to work it, except for email. He loves to exercise, especially cycling which helps with his arthritic knees.
