    He Got Tired of Waiting, So He Fixed Montreal Himself | Saad Tekiout & Shahrez Hayder In this episode of The Path We Choose (TPWC), host Umer Farooque sits down with Saad Tekiout and Shahrez Hayder to explore the story behind the Montreal man who went viral for fixing potholes across the city himself. What started as one simple act of service quickly became something much bigger. Saad began repairing potholes for friends, family, and people across Montreal before the videos ever went viral. For him, it was never about attention. It was about solving a problem he saw in his city and helping people who were tired of waiting for someone else to step in. This conversation goes beyond potholes. Saad shares why he sees Montreal, Quebec, and Canada as his community, why he believes helping others is the same as helping yourself, and why small actions can create a much larger ripple effect. Shahrez also joins the conversation to discuss masculinity, responsibility, purpose, leadership, and what it means to take action instead of just complaining. In this episode, you’ll learn: • Why Saad started fixing potholes in Montreal • How one simple act turned into a city-wide movement • Why real leadership starts with taking responsibility • What it means to serve your community without waiting for permission • How small actions can create a domino effect • Why Saad believes the mission is bigger than potholes • The connection between purpose, masculinity, and action Whether you’re from Montreal, interested in community change, or simply inspired by people who choose action over excuses, this episode is a powerful reminder that sometimes the biggest movements start with one person deciding to fix what’s in front of them.
