Travel Guide - Montreal, Canada

[Edson6859]

Canada is very cold !!!

[skyscraper03]

I will move to Montreal, IF Bill 101 in Quebec gets repealed. My reasons for this are simply two.

1) Montreal won't grow and reach to its full potential as long as Bill 101 is in place. (We all know it's an undeniable truth by now)

2) I merely speak English as my third language and I'm not English. However with this law, Montreal won't be able to take off the name-tag of an evil place that discriminates minorities and freedom of choice. It's like as if straights are SUPERIOR to gays&lesbians.

[FlacoTV]

Always considered Montreal to be a bilingual city, not just a French speaking city.

[xxxtangerinexxx]

@FlacoTV theres many english speaking but its way more french speaking than english

[Bozewani]

3rd Largest French speaking city after Paris AND KINSHASA

[Mahadonna]

Montreal ugly speaking french!

[BDRioga]

French speaking girls are more beautiful than english speaking girls. 

[columbusdinner]

Is it all French all threw or do they speak English as a second language?. 

[123benny4]

@columbusdinner I live in Montreal. English is my first language, French my second.

[heyitsfp]

@columbusdinner Most of us speaks english as a second language. It's sort of mixed though. The western part of the city is more english and the eastern part of the city is more french.

[ispyonu20]

@columbusdinner We do speak English as a second language,

[1000milesout]

wooow wish I wil be there one day

[FloridaVilla4Bed]

Great video. I plan on visiting here one of these days with my family.

[2008maerski]

Is it possible to live and work in monreal with a little knowledge in French language?

[123benny4]

@2008maerski Yes, but it depends on which sector. Business - you need to know French. French is first here.

[ispyonu20]

@2008maerski no, it is not. You've got to learn French! :)

[lorenzoduque]

Montreal was my favourite city in Canada. Plus, girls there are ALMOST as hot as the ones here in Bogota, Colombia. I lived in Ottawa, though, and I liked it a lot too, but Montreal has this energy, which makes you want to stay forever. Greetings from Colombia.

[Barnakos]

@lorenzoduque that's right, Montreal is the biggest multi cultural city, so we get the best looking women from all around the world.

[waterbottlecap100]

loooove montreal

[54spiritedwill54]

Such a wonderful city of Montreal! So many sights and sounds to see. I'd like to visit this beautiful city one day. It's a bummer I live way at the other end of the country :(

[MikeTupperTheKiller]

and the home of the habs

[jayelzivi2]

We'll be moving here so soon.

And I can't wait.

[KadoxCK]

Yowpete, which seperation? -.- it is really old. I'm from Montreal but my family is at quebec now, and it is really nice whwn i go on quebec..

[Lishy1]

When I think Canada, I think Montreal.

Vivre longtemps au Québec!

[BigSharkZ]

Fuck yeah Montreal! Can't wait for the 10$ per hour minimum salary. :P

[30000leagues]

Montreal is THIRD largest French speaking city in the world, FAR smaller than Kinshasa, but Quebeckers don't recognize that because, well... think about it and you will come up with the answer. It is a North American city with a North American flare.

[yowpete]

Montreal is great! Quebec outside Montreal can eat shit.. good luck with seperation!

[NorthAutumnColours]

I live here! (well, Lachine technically) I love it! We need to fix the sketchy elevated highway system though... lol. Go Habs Go!

[greenchef6]

Montreal has the hottest girls in Canada

[Amanda281100]

@greenchef6 Have you been to Ontario ?

[teamwork1productions]

@greenchef6 no, hottest girls in the WORLD!!!

[Theblob2k7]

Montréal...my city. Welcome to all of you.

[blindfatkid23]

Oh sure all you tourists love it. Living here sucks though.

[hhhrolling]

The distinct Euro like character of Montreal is truly fascinating.

[ManOWar2Red]

@hhhrolling visit Québec City....much more european :)

[suncrop15]

lol my fathers cousin lives there, I never went to canada since i was 7, lol i need to visit there again.

[Philzup]

montreal is great city

[slimshadybaby4]

yeee i love montreal man



[zedxyle]

4 hours from Toronto and 6 from NYC...u drive very fast. 6 hours will get u to Boston depending on the traffic at the border

[PauloJean]

@zedxyle

When my family and I go there, it usually take 6hrs and my mom is pretty slow on the wheel.

[BAGELQ]

west new york new jersey is a great city to visit. you guys should come by one day. i will show you around

[goldenchocolate]

Montreal is NOT the 2nd largest French-speaking city in the world. It is AT LEAST 4th, behind Paris, Kinshasa (Congo) and Abidjan (Côte d'Ivoire)

[omgrobbiee]

@goldenchocolate Not bigger in population, but Montréal has a greater number of mother-tongue french speakers.

[mytotallyawesomename]

@goldenchocolate africa doesnt count because of the dumb niggers

[goldenchocolate]

@mytotallyawesomename yup

[MerchantofTarshish]

@mytotallyawesomename I take offense

[zoophobe1]

@goldenchocolate No man it is very the 2 largest french speaking city in the world my friend work for statistic canada it its real

[15native]

atlanta is great city to visit

[columbusdinner]

Hows the gangs & violence in Montreal? low?

[Cwolfgal]

@columbusdinner rather low and most residential areas are very safe and pleasant. I've personally never had any trouble with it.

[umekfan]

@columbusdinner very low

[iJess17]

@columbusdinner its ok, but montreal-north is like the gangs ghetto place of the city other than that it's ok

[GaBoBalberith]

@iJess17 yeah u are right!! the other places around montréal is really cool!! only montreal nord! is the worst place ever! only ghettos and people from haiti they don´t respect they are in a new country!

[teamforteress]

i lie montreal because theres no ghettos like most of big american cities

[tjftor]

Check out my Montreal videos on my channel.

Thanks

T.J.F.

[ginlep]

You are wrong! Montréal is 10 h from NYC and 6 from Toronto

[columbusdinner]

@ginlep

Actually New york is 6 hours & 38 minutes & Toronto is 5 hours & 29 minutes

[umekfan]

@columbusdinner  are you serious?

[JAJAJA31000]

I went there from August to December 2009 to study english and I really liked the city, I want to go back so bad

[wildnutria]

Montreal sucks! I will never live there again!

[Jathross]

Great Place I got to get back there again

[dinamo4889]

I moved to NYC in 96 From Maison-Alfort its in Ille De France. I can't stand New York. Waiting to graduate and relocate. would Montreal be a good place to live. is there work for people with post graduate degrees? my french is rusty but i can still communicate. any advice?

[RoIIand]

[XAVI68S]

I'm from Barcelona (Spain) I was in Montreal in 2008 I've been in the Olympic Stadium, Montreal Canadiens stadium in the city center I love Montreal.

[TheMba58]

watch?v=1hSMMvnezKs

[delicious533]

jewelbocks its people like you who gives us New Yorkers a bad name, you wouldn't believe how many New Yorkers love coming to this city and I'm one of them because Montreal is so special and so unique than from NY, usually when people comment and talk shit about a first class city its because of jealousy, oh its true NY, Lon,Tor,LA,Paris get this shit all the time. I guess some people just can't except the fact their city doesn't have what other cities have so it pisses them off to write shit

[SniperViper1000]

@delicious533 Ignore him. He's a retard.

[canada193827]

im soo down to go to mtl

[Zigzag4me]

And seriously, every city has its problems. When driving in NYC, we got food thrown at us during a festival and I got mugged too on the same day. That doesn't prevent me to like the city.

[spydog50]

so if you dont like montreal why go there people like you spoil it for everyone else. every city has is the same noone is perfect so stay in your own city and walk in your own shit i,m from montreal and proud to live here.

[JewelBocks]

New York is Montreal 1000 times over. You could fit all of downtown Montreal into a few square blocks of lower Manahattan.

[benymetal]

and.....?

[JewelBocks]

Why would any New Yorker with all it has to offer come to a place like Montreal? When I came back to Montreal from New York, it looked like a village in comparison. There is 100 times more to do in New York.

[JewelBocks]

I have no hate toward Montreal, but I have seen dog shit in the Metro transit system with my own eyes. It is far from perfect when you cannot even walk on a subway platform without stepping in dog shit. All of these videos make it sound as if it is some kind of paradise and that should all come and visit or live there.

[Zigzag4me]

I've lived here my whole life and never in my life have I seen this. I don't know when you visited the city, maybe when the janitors where on strike or something because I simply can't believe this.

You say you have no hate toward this city, but yet you can't stop posting negative comments about it. If you have nothing to say, then don't say anything at all.

[SniperViper1000]

@JewelBocks I've seen dog shit in the streets of NYC! So what. You know what I do! Find a place with lot's of dog shit and write a sign saying "Hillbillies wore here!":

[JewelBocks]

Do they mention in this video that upwards of 250,000 English speaking people have left Montreal? Do they mention that 50% of the Island of Montreal is composed of immigrants and anlgos, but 95% of the police force is made up of French Canadians? Yes, it might be fun to visit, but it is no fun to live there, and that is why so many people have left.

[Markinbetween]

@JewelBocks Cut the crap, you have no idea of what you're talking about, you only hate Montreal for some reasons, and that's alright, you have your own opinion, but don't come here to diss the french canadians and their city. This is disrespect to me and every Montrealers. I don't know where you live but i don't give a shit. Just shut the fuck up and don't show disrespect again to people who live here.

[JewelBocks]

I forget to mention most of roads are full of very deep potholes. Do they show this in the video? Did they mention that theft is very very rampant, in fact car theft is among the highest in North Americ. Do they mention that about 30% of the population lives in poverty?

[JewelBocks]

The customer service in stores is very poor and people will attempt to rip you off. They spend their time putting down anyone who speaks English, especially Americans. They have been very unfair to the anglos who practically bulit up the entire city years ago. They have a total disrespect for them. You don't see any of this in the tourist videos which are made to entice you to come and spend your money. People in Montreal can be very rude toward tourists, demanding they speak French.

[Markinbetween]

@JewelBocks this is so wrong!! i don't know why you're spending so much time hating montreal, but you have some sort of problem! you know what, just go fuck yourself! you're shit

[shaitan34fr]

Quand on decide de vivre dans un pays ou une region du monde dont la culture est differente de la sienne, on s'adapte au pays et non l'inverse. Ce n'est pas au habitants du pays de s'adapter aux etrangers comme Mr JewelBocks le voudrait.

[JewelBocks]

Montreal is also a very dirty city. There is even dog shit on the public transit system known as the Metro. There is trash everywhere except in the well to do areas, which are not numerous. Everything is expensive and there is 13% sales tax on everything

[JewelBocks]

If you don't live here you have no idea what it is really like. The French Canadian majority have very little respect for the 49% who are anglo or immigrant. This is probably a video made by someone who has visited the city but it onwly shows you the best apsects of it. If you look clearly at it, you realize that montreal is not much different than any North American city. It is full of office building and snooty people working in them.

[JewelBocks]

The hidden face of Montreal: the police have rounded up all the most vulnerable, fined them so many times that they end up in jail. This is so the tourists don't have to stumble over them. The police also don't repsect your civil rights, and it is even worse if you are black. So if you are a black American, don't waste your time coming here. Please see the video about the old French Canadian racist insulting black tourists.

[APPLEexampleSample]

@JewelBocks so is vancouver a better place then?

[SkullsNCrows]

wow my city looks so great in this video lol

[natcha88]

Qu'est-ce que j'aimerais y vivre à Montreal !

Je vis à Paris et bien que j'aime ma ville, Montreal est une ville où j'aimerais y habiter !!

I love Montreal !

[JewelBocks]

Monsieur, si tu vivais ici, ce serait une erreur, car les gens n'aime pas les français trop à Montréal. Presque tous les français installés ici veulent retourner en France.

[Markinbetween]

@JewelBocks Tu sais tellement pas ce que tu dis!!!

[ghbolivar]

Quebec government gives us too many services because we pay ours taxes for that. We have a socialist culture, where first in the list is people, not money.

[assou23]

i just love montreal it's sooooooo a great place.Vous êtes cool les montréalais Lol XD.

[drekas2005]

Montreal is a bullshit facade run by racist

mean spirited thugs. The only people that give this dump any bit of culture are the foreigners.And that's the fact.

[fibreoptik]

I love my city!! :D

Always love to come back here after traveling :)

[HappyGypsy52]

City's okay to look at in magazines and vids, the French are rude and arrogant and the money that left in 1976 and 1977 is never coming back. Glad I was able to escape to the USA.

[ManOWar2Red]

@HappyGypsy52 rude and arrogant lol ask that to our fellow english canadians who made us that way.

[guanabanin]

looks amazing beautiful city! amazing

[koozemano]

Montreal = Scum of North America

I have lived in Montreal for few years and it is as if you go back in time. Nothing is normal, roads are terrible, things dont get done right, and people are very rude

[yowpete]

South Carolina is a state stupid.  Montreal is great!!! seperatists not great!

[ifann88]

I LOVE MONTREAL! The people treat you so well. If I had a choice, I'd live there. :-D

[Tennessee44444]

Montreal is filled with rude and arrogant French who would get angry instantly if you talk to them in English. If you dont like to speak English, then move back to your shit hole country of France.

[popstarmagasine]

boy you should get a life

[matthewad999]

how would u know? and thats not true at all

i win :)

[dappawap]

You should move to NDG or Cote Saint Luc; your type would feel real comfortable there

[tarny11]

LOOKS AMAZING.

[scpotvin1]

Montreal doesn't need you haters. Stay away!! It is a better city than any other in North America !! One has to be intelligent enough, to understand the geat city that is Montreal. The Quebecers certainly understand the rest of North America and they DO IT BETTER!

[trancebeliever]

Looks like a nice city, only 7% are nigga.

[lovergurlz10001]

we dont need people like you in montreal stay away and move to south carolina or some other hick city.

[drekas2005]

Except for a altered version or the French language, you just described any North American city.

[whereamigoingnow]

Pretty City.

[ZAK900765]

it is too bad that quebecois are racists

[ExplicitAzn]

Quebec City sucks more compared to Montreal. >_>

[IH8QUEBEC]

ALL OF QUEBEC SUCKS

[drekas2005]

I like the cut of your jib.

[SniperViper1000]

Fuck of cowtard. Just becasue you got rejected in a school at Quebec means you have to diss Quebec. Now suck your dad's cock for freedom to show that YOU NEED HELP!

[NatWolffTV]

Wow Montreal looks really awsome,That's why Im going to travel

there on Sunday.Hopefully I get to meet

a french canadian! :)

[drekas2005]

Just don't speak English to him. It is frowned upon. They expect tourists to speak French. Now that's no way to attract

Tourist dollars.

[tehboxnoob1]

i live in montreal ftww!!! :DDD

[jflomann]

I'd say vancouver and montreal are a real toss up...vancouver has amazing scenery but montreal has the partying and nightlife

[artcakes]

Beautiful video!!! You make me want to move there... Toronto is boring :(

[ITHEREONETHATHASNT]

Hope they separate fuck you quebec!

[EmoBusterQc]

OK can we stop with the

FUCK Qc thing?

please can we all grow up!

[ITHEREONETHATHASNT]

Its not immature to be pissed of that spoiled brats want to separate. I dont want to raise children that will be blackmailed into giving Quebec whatever it wants. Tuition in quebec is $3000 less then anywhere in canada. Child care is almost free. Why? Because it is subsidized with ontario and western money. I am not hateful towards the people of quebec they just have to realize there is only so much we will take. Did you know the canadian government subsidizes asbestos BC of Quebec!

[SniperViper1000]

only 12% of Quebec wants to Seperate so show some resepect foo.

[ITHEREONETHATHASNT]

The last vote was 49 percent in 1995. Even twelve percent (which is a number you pulled out of the air?) is fucking retarded considering Ontario pays for all your shit in quebec.

[defcabounty]

49 percent of people who voted. That means 12 percent of the entire population. So you are fucking retarded

[ITHEREONETHATHASNT]

Even 12 percent is fucked up. And you know full well what i was referring to stop trying to pick a fight. Have a greta day and stop calling me retarded.

[SniperViper1000]

It's already been decided dummie, Quebec can't seperate it's been final.

[ITHEREONETHATHASNT]

The clarity act does not mean they cant separate moron. Learn your shit. 50% + 1 is all they need. DUMMIE

[3o0d30od]

am in Montreal and it's an amazing city :)

[Despereaux2407]

its just like Chicago lol

[DinosaurUriel]

I`m from mexico and I like to go to Canada, is good idea? Montrel is a city good for to live ?

[mralanv]

noo stay ur own country , unless you wanna spread swine flu across the country

[DeNiZLiLi87]

montreals have everything to get you divorced, and loose your family, then you will find yourself in the metro, asking for money.. why? ,montreals bitch.. they need to kill the bitch, so they will be no more SON-OF-BITCH ! people whos gonna say fuk u to me : look your wife,sister,mom.

[SniperViper1000]

Montreal is one of the greatest cities to raise a family in Canada.

[wweuploader01]

i am frm montreal and montreal is to good

[drekas2005]

Montreal is Canada's garbage can. Dirt

Graffitti, bums etc... The immigrants gave

this cold city its true cosmopolitan flavour

and class. In return they are always unappreciated and considered lesser

people by the ruling Quebecois...

[drekas2005]

I fogot to mention the worst roads in

North America

[groscon4]

c comme rouler sur ta mère

[whereamigoingnow]

Lodge Detroit? Good Luck with THAT!

[drekas2005]

Visiting is one thing. Even a lot of tourist revues of the city are negative. Live in this circus sideshow. That will quickly dull the lustre and change your mind. I'ts a big facade.

[IH8QUEBEC]

So true

[drekas2005]

I forgot to mention, the foreigners are the only ones who have contributed to the

"cultural" diversity and flavour of the city.

The dull locals flock to these communities just be part of the scene.

Too bad their government restricts us

of freedom of speech and consider us dirty and interfering.

[SniperViper1000]

LOL Ever been to New Jersey? They got shitty roads. But hey atleast they have a clean transportation system unlike the dirty subways of NYC.

[groscon4]

loooser!

[drekas2005]

Learn some English then spell the word properly....loser..which is what you are...

and oh yeah, Yo mamma too...

[groscon4]

ma "mamma" te dis "tu peux toujours rêver de coucher avec une femme de 54 ans mais pour l'instant, contente toi de la tienne elle donne déjà assez de peau"

And learn some french, so, when I will say you "va te pendre sous-produit de sous-merde le monde est assez plein d'ignorants pas besoin d'un autre joueur de runescape pour pourrir la vie des gens bien" you're gonna understand ....

[drekas2005]

Wow dude you have a lot of hate in you.

You have to learn to relax and take it easy.

This is the problem with our world.....too

much hatred, too much division..Maybe the next generation will wake up and see

the light and actually change the world for the better.Relax my friend, and smoke the pipe of peace.

[drekas2005]

The truth hurts heh mon ami.

[groscon4]

non ce qui "hurts" c'est de voir qu'en 2009, ça existe encore des chiasses de ta sous-espèce.

[drekas2005]

Now now. There's no need for that.....We are all equals as a sub-species...After all

there is always somebody above us..

Like the Dylan song "you're gonna have

to serve somebody"

[NADIRTIZIELKORN]
