As I speak to my friends who live in Toronto (not all of them for sure, but a considerably good portion of them), they have this vision of Montréal as if it’s an exotic city in the middle of Africa, surrounded by volcanoes! Cause every time I ask them to come for a visit, they respond with enthusiasm “ yeah, I’ve been there once and I’m really looking forward to visit again at the end of the summer or next year…”
So I thought it would be useful if I explain some apparently obvious facts about our city, Montreal.
Dear friends,
Don’t let the notion of “French Canada” fools you, it’s still, although rather reluctantly, Canada! meaning that you shouldn’t apply for a visa or something, and you can still use your Canadian money here, as well!
Sure we’re more fun and less workaholic, our girls are way too gorgeous, sexy, tasteful and open minded, in a very good sense!, our city is more beautiful and our roads are too crappy! but if you ignore the fact that you have to call “Shopper’s Drugmart”, “Pharmaprix”, and remember that “PFK” and “KFC” are “La Même Chose”, or you should by your alcohol from “SAQ” and not “LCBO”, it’s almost the same thing.
So, remember, you shouldn’t reserve tickets or plan a year ahead, it’s only five hours of driving away and will cost you about 80$ but you can bet your life that it worths every penny.
Just so you know!
P.S. We don’t have hot dog vendors in the streets but instead you can buy alcohols from grocery stores. I think it’s a fair trade off!
