Working in Montreal this past July with my exploring partner in crime/co-worker and decided to take a break and find some Quebequois abandonments. Spotted this place outside of Ottawa almost completely enclosed in trees so we parked at the end of the long driveway and started walking up.

There was a barn, many outbuildings and an old house with easy access and lots of items inside it. We were excited, we had been drawing blanks on good spots, all had been boarded up solid so far and we don't kick in doors etc.

Next thing we know a truck comes out of nowhere, an overgrown driveway to the left running off the main one, which must have led to an even more hidden house that was still occupied. Camera in hand I approach the man and say hi. He doesn't speak English so I switch to French, hoping that will get us on his good side. He wanted to know what we were doing of course and I told him the place was beautiful, I just wanted to take pics. He got mad and said "Maybe once it was!" and kicked us off the property.
It sucked because we can't return anytime soon and it was the only unsealed location we found the whole trip (had to waste most of it working LOL).
This next pic was typical of a lot of places we found, full of stuff, intact glass and boarded tight. Limited to peeking and photographing thru windows
