    Who here likes to parler franglais? Not anglais. Not français. But franglais. Swear it's the best language - and it's perfect for those occasions where you're trying to show off in French, but then immediately want to revert back to comfort when you start struggling.

      His history was completely wrong though, the French did not slaughter the natives. We did make allies with some of them and help them war against their enemies, but that's it when it comes to slaughter. We only traded with them and tried to convert them, that's it. Most of the disgusting things actually happened (and continue to happen) under british rule.

    The Orange Julep is quite iconic in Montreal.
    I have always loved going to the Orange Julep, but I will never forget the time my Aunt and Uncle brought me and my Sister there at Midnight. I was quite young, we were in our pajamas, and it was an exciting, unexpected adventure.
    The most iconic part of “The Big Orange” (apart from their building), is their drink, the “Gibeau Orange Julep”. It is delicious and while the exact recipe is unknown, I have made this version several times and it is close enough for me. It is so good, that MTL Blog featured it as the closest recipe they have tried!
    Ingredients
    1 6 oz. can orange juice
    1 cup milk
    1 cup water
    1/2 cup sugar
    1 tsp. vanilla extract
    12 Ice Cubes
    *Optional egg whites/egg substitute may be added for the frothy texture. About 3 Tbsp, but it is not mandatory.*
    Instructions
    Put everything in the blender except for the ice.
    Blend for 10-15 seconds until frothy.
    Add the ice and blend for another 20 seconds until thoroughly crushed.
    Have a taste test. If it isn’t as sweet as you would like, add a tiny bit more Vanilla extract. Just be careful- sometimes people put too much vanilla in it and it ends up tasting way too sweet.
    Simple, isn’t it?

    I lived in montreal for 8 months because Im studying engineering at mcgill. It's so cool to see you visit so many places that ive explored as an outsider and a lover of quebecois culture, like Jean mance parc and the underground tunnels. The switching to english thing is so relatable!!! It's like walking on a thin rope, if you trip a little bit your french conversation is over. This video is the coolest thing ever and I hope that the next time you're in montreal i'll happen to be there as well!

    It's a little unfortunate you didn't have a Montreal buff with you guys to explain the context of some situations and sites you visited...Julep being the last remaining old drive throughs other than that being a common fast food joint. The orange Julep juice is basically the same as Orange Julius. MTL Crew Cafe is situated in the first headquarters of the RBC Bank, and until 3years ago before the cafe opened, you could see the remains of the old bank cashier counters and piled up library lamps. There's also a NightClub in the old vault . The underground is just a major shopping mall crossing metro stations and takes you to the train station as well. If you understand the different passages you will find that it's almost true, you can do a lot without stepping out during winter. It's also going through a major transformation at the moment ! There's so much to say!

    the outside stairs were started after a ruling of the city when they obliged every new duplex( appartements) to have at least a certain percentage of the front porch be greenery (so grass usually) because the city was starting to feel very crowded (like paris where all the buildings start at the street) so all buildings constructed kinda lose a part of their land and had to be kinda smaller un less you bought more land, so they started using that space for stairs so they werent wasting that space inside the appartement and they didnt have to heat in the winter so it's cheaper for electricity.

    I just love how casually they change languages, I just start panicking and pretend to understand bc I’ve already asked them to repeat something and I end up just being like “ah ouais!” and it’s obvious I didn’t understand urghhh c’est trop

    I know that Damon already did a little bit of this on his Insta story, but I would love for both Damon and Jo to talk more about politics either on their channel or on social media in general. I feel like being so well-traveled has allowed them to see the US from a variety of different lenses, and I would love to hear more about that!

    • @DamonAndJo
      @DamonAndJo  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Awww I thank you for saying that! I would also agree that being well-traveled is the *first* step in being able to analyze your own country's culture and political views/values. But it is a risky game to play, I tell you - in terms of keeping "everyone" happy. The easiest way to piss people off is through politics - which is frustrating because I feel like if people traveled more they would see that they could and probably should detach themselves from this identity they believed for themselves - that they "are" American or they "are" Australian or whatever. And after you detach yourself from that identity, you can start detaching yourself from every other identity and role you play in society (profession, family ties, sexuality, etc.) and start thinking for yourself. Basically, travel makes you look at society and politics through a different lens. It makes you question everything you've ever known or believed.
      Anyway, for every political comment I make on IG or YT, I get just as many bad DMs as good DMS. Some are even from my family telling me to quiet down so I don't lose followers or sponsors. But as Cardi B once rapped, "I started speaking my mind, and tripled my views." So for now, I'll keep speaking my mind.

    En fait à 4:40, j'ai appris dans mon cours d'histoire que l'entrée du métro avait été donnée (ou prêtée) par la ville de Paris pour commémorer l'implacation des architectes et ouvriers français lors de la construction du métro de Montréal en 1967 (pour l'expo!)
