Emmanuel Christian School is a small private school located in Dollard-des-Ormeaux, Quebec, a city of Greater Montreal. EMCS is a school that bases its educational and religious values on the Bible and Evangelical Protestant teachings, while simultaneously meeting or exceeding all of the educational requirements of the Ministre de l'Education, du Loisir et du Sport. A former dispute with another Montreal area private school named "Miss Edgar and Miss Cramp's School" has led to the use of the acronym "EMCS" instead of the previous "ECS". EMCS offers both elementary and secondary education from Kindergarten up to Grade 11. There is only one class per grade with usually 20-30 students per class. Total enrollment for the entire school is roughly 300 students. In 2009, admissions for French-speaking high school students was made possible with the establishment of the French Sector. However the high school sectors merged in 2017 and are now bilingual. The current principal is Mr. Jean Obed Jubuisson, the High School Administrator is Mr. Alexander Ko, the Elementary School Administrator is Mrs. Judy Ikegami, and the Director of Operations is Mr. Martin Plante.

Île Bigras is the largest of the four islands that make up the Îles-Laval archipelago in the Rivière des Prairies in Quebec. They all are part of the city of Laval since 1965. The 1 km (0.62 mi) Île Bigras was named in 1817 as Île Amesse, after the name of its owner, Louis Amesse (other more recent maps have also shown the names Île Boiret and Île Boisvert). The island was bought in 1890 by Émilien Bigras, who gave it his name. He was also the owner of the three other islands of the archipelago: Île Pariseau, Île Verte and Île Ronde. Thanks to the Deux-Montagnes commuter train line and its station, the island is less than 30 minutes from Downtown Montreal and Central Station. It is also less than a quarter-hour from the seasonal reaction ferry that connects Île Bizard with Laval-sur-le-Lac. A park and ride at the station can accommodate several cars.
