It's hard to not love Montréal. French ascendence, the dynamic of north america, most people are bilingual, trees everywhere even in downtown, and foods reflect the french-north americain-multicultural city. People are nice and polite, We just take it granted.

[sirmambaa]

I'm originally from Montreal and had to move away about 15 years ago. This video made me feel like I was home. Excellent job guys - very well done!

[Transphysique]

Incredible video series guys! I'm from Montreal and it's BY FAR the best tourism/travel video that have been done on the Province of Québec. It's also very cool that you came in the winter time. Almost all of the travel blog/guide says to avoid the region in the Winter but there is alot going on and alot of people miss out. Very professional work guys!

Having a little France in North America is precious. I would like to visit the city one day.

I loved Montreal as a teenager and I love that my family still owns a large family farm not far from there. I LOVE YOU MONTREAL I love your cobble stones, your shops and your history. I love that my family is all over Canada and that my roots run deep in your soil. STAY BEAUTIFUL

Two historical inaccuracies :
- The first inhabitants of the shores of the Saint Lawrence between nowadays Québec and Montréal are an unknown people speaking a language related to the Iroquois confederacy peoples but that were not iroquois themselves. For lack a a better term, archeologists call them Saint Lawrence iroquoians (language family). One of the Iroquois people, Kanienkehaka (Mohawks in English, Agniers in French) do claim they actually were these people, but the non-Iroquois Wendats do say the same thing however according to historian George Sioui. Archeology so far does not favour either hypothesis. Also Algonquins pretend they conquered the people that originally lived in Montréal.
- Beer in Québec did not start with Molson at all. It started much sooner under intendant Jean Talon in 1668.

I so badly want to head to Canada in the next couple of years! Next year Europe then we'll see what happens. Awesome video!

[carlvaillancourt]

If your guys are returning to Montreal, I suggest that you go to a bar called: Les Deux Pierrots. Best Quebecois ambiance in Montreal!!!!

[campingcarjoa]

Montreal looks really amazing!  Definitely different from any other North American city I've seen.

[emilietaza]

I live in Montreal so my first language is french and it's funny to see your accent when you speak french😂. Between it's really nice to see your view of my city !

[Masterpiece]

I love discovering my own city into an outsider's eyes.
