Been there a few times, none of those times did I get to explore the area but yeah it is amazing! Just remember you cannot take a right on a red, only place in North America where it is not legal.
Edit, fixed a direction.

Which is surprising considering how highway driving there is like an extremely fast game of bumper Cars.

There’s only one and he’s booked months in advance.

You meant to type right turn on a red.

As a Canadian, it’s my favourite Canadian city to visit. I’ve been about 15x since the early '70s, and expect to visit a few more times.

Indeed there’s a queue for that one alligator. Beware the croc trying to masquerade as one.

Wow thanks, I swear I know the rules of the road, as much as any Saskatchewan person does (I know I am the best on the road it is just everyone else who does not know how to drive
).

I mean you have to go to down to Hochelaga for that.

Uh, FYI right on red is also generally not permitted in New York City.
And as someone walking and cycling in Montreal, I’m remembered how dangerous right turns on red are every time I exit the island. I’m glad Montreal is resisting to this car centric abomination.

Oh don’t worry I think we also have our lot of strange and/or mentally ill people.
There are select places where this more concentrated than other parts of the city. Like on Parc between des Pins and Sherbrooke, where there’s a lot of homeless people in a doubtful mental state. Or park Émilie-Gamelin over the Berri station.
We even have infamous scam artists. I don’t know if he’s still doing it but there was a guy with a hernia that was telling a whole story a out how he’s from another province, lost his stuff and needs money for the treatment, or some shit like that.
There are several posts about this guy on reddit.

I gew up in a small town in Quebec but moved in Montreal in 2009 and kind of fell in love with the region. Being an island surrounded by water, and two lakes, it’s certainly not the ocean but there’s plenty of water activities to do. Not only in Montreal but in all the towns and villages of the region around the river and the lakes.
Boating is made easy by a network of canals, like the Lachine canal and the Ste-Anne-de-Bellevue canal. It’s possible to go kayaking or paddle boarding in multiple places around the island or others, like the Boucherville islands. You can camp on those islands too. There’s an extensive network of dedicated cycling paths in, but also around the city, going deep in the countryside.
Admittedly, the only thing missing might be the beaches. We some nearby like the Oka beach, or the St-Zotique beach, but it’s not comparable. Otherwise, I think the Montreal region has much to offer, in summer.

Love the subtle disclaimer at the end: in summer
