Opération nid de poule
I saw this vehicle in a Montréal street the other day. On the side, it says:
Opération nid de poule…
Operation Pothole!
Or as Rupert and Samantha would say:
Operation Hen’s Nest
The driver was using a large hose to blow the dirt and stones out of potholes so that they could be refilled.
According to the Usito dictionary from Québec, you can use the spelling nid-de-poule (with hyphens) or nid de poule (without hyphens).
