Although I’m biased for sure (Montreal is the city of my birth, and where I live and play), I think Montreal is THE coolest city in Canada and it definitely has it’s own special mood and vibe. Part of what makes Montreal so cool is the fact that although English is spoken by many, Montreal is the second largest French speaking city in the Western world. The municipal government works primarily in French and all the street signs are in French. That said, most Montrealers are bilingual and many of us are trilingual. You can often here French and English being spoken in the same sentence.
Montreal is a multicultural, tolerant and open minded city. Most people generally get along really well and this is another reason that I really dig Montreal.
Here are some of my favorite Montreal photographs with many more to come.
