Mysterious Traffic Cones Appear on Montreal Roads

Thousands of unexplained orange traffic cones have appeared in various locations throughout Montreal this winter. Citizens are being forced to avoid them with their cars, as McGill’s leading environmental experts are struggling to find a possible explanation:

“We have no leads, and it just keeps getting worse” said Professor David Greene. “They do not seem to follow any pattern; they merge 3 lanes into one, force detours to side streets, and some appear to just be placed randomly in the middle of the road. I guess it’s just one of those things that can never be explained, like the crop circles.”

We can't rule out the possibility that aliens sent them

 

According to Greene, the only commonality found among all the groups of cones is an orange, diamond-shaped sign that reads ‘Fin.’ “We thought it may have been the french word ‘fin,’ meaning ‘end,’ but the cones just seem to continue one block later. We are now fairly certain that the sign is meaningless.”
