Heir of the Heart: When Your Mother Is Gone and You Are Not a Mother

With Stéphanie Laprise

Beyond traditional Mother’s Day celebrations, this conference is intended for older women whose mother has passed away and who have not had children.

In a gentle and compassionate setting, participants are invited to reflect on what we inherit from the heart:

• the legacy left by a mother,

• memories and emotional bonds,

• and other ways of passing things on, without being a mother oneself.

A meaningful space for recognition, remembrance, and reflection, offered in connection with Mother’s Day.

📅 Monday, May 25
🕜 1:30 p.m.
📍 Cinema

✨ Enjoy the conference

The card turned up above the stock offers a suit as trump.

Each player can accept or refuse to make this suit trump.

The “Left Jack” (jack of the same suit as trump) is the second-highest card.

3. Playing tricks

Each player, in turn, must follow the suit played if possible.

The rules of the game: 500 is a game of trump tricks played with 4 players in two teams of 2. The partners sit opposite each other. A 43-card deck is used (a 52-card deck, plus a joker, from which the black 2s, 3s and two 4s are removed).

The order of the cards in trump is as follows:

Joker

Jack of Trump, called Right Bower

Jack of the suit close to the trump suit (example: Clubs if the trump is Spades), called Left Bower

Trumps: Ace, King, Queen, 10, 9.

Other cards: Ace, King, Queen, Jack (if not Left Bower), 10, 9

Without trump, the joker is considered a trump, and wins the trick where it is played, no matter what
