    I think you really need to understand the backstory to understand this park. It hasn't always been under Six Flags management, and they haven't put all that much money or effort into the park beyond Goliath. It was the amusement park left over from Expo '67, and has been added to little by little over the years. It was never intended to be a fully fledged regional park, much less a fully-fledged Six Flags park. The hope was that Six Flags would bring it closer to that goal, but they just haven't bothered. In fact, instead they took out some classic flat rides that gave the park character and had been there for quite some time. (Think: Six Flags Great America-style flat rides and you'll know what I mean.)
    The real point of the park is to be a wonderful afternoon diversion from Montreal, itself. A place to go before or after food and cultural festivals elsewhere on the mid-river islands, or to watch the summer fireworks festival. On those terms it works great, especially before Six Flags when the older classic rides were still around, and Le Monstre was still being operated as a racing coaster. Back then the park delivered because it didn't overpromise. Right now, Six Flags over promises and that's the problem. It really needs to be under better management. FWIW, It's Le Vampire because of licensing issues. It really was supposed to be Batman.
    On the other hand, you were in somebody else's city in somebody else's province in somebody else's country, so complaining that you hadn't bothered to learn a word of the local language--or bothered to learn that you were actually in an incredibly bilingual city and could easily have used English with anybody you encountered--that's really on you, not on the 2 million people who live in the Montreal region. Your cultural sensitivity in this video is essentially zero.

    I like you Taylor, but some of your complaints were quite ignorant. First of all, poutine is a Canadian staple. It's a meal. It's not just fries with cheese or bacon, it is fries, cheese curds and gravy and it is really filling. Sure, a small portion could be considered a side, but in general, it is eaten as a meal. Secondly, you can't get mad at people for speaking French and English in a bilingual province. Not everyone in the world speaks English. If you were to go to China would you be mad that they were speaking Mandarin or Cantonese? I'm sure you didn't mean to offend, but judging a park because the patrons speak their native language isn't a valid complaint.

      I'm Canadian. Poutine is NOT a meal, it is a snack, and the only time it could be considered more than a meal is when there's more meat then fries. Especially considering that he got a theme park poutine, which is probably much smaller than a snack size poutine

    Being from montreal, La ronde used to be really good before six flags got involved, it had more of a local fare feel to it. Once they started to remove timeless rides and replace them with remnants of rides from other parks. For example for the 2020 season we are getting the 4d Greenlantern ride which has been deemed horrible by so many. It's as if la ronde has become six flags' dumping ground for stuff that doesn't work.

    so it has been 2 years since this video was posted, and i think some rather large changes have been made:
    -they need to improve on up keeping of the rides. (still)
    -they still use the same entrance methods but it is way faster now.
    -i only spotted a few problems with fellow park goers (also all teens may i add) with jumping the lines, which staff was all over and made them go to the end of the line
    -the music was a reasonable volume (and i do agree it was oddly loud in 2017)
    -i believe the meals have been changed to things more filling.
    -it is still unaesthetic to look at (like most six flags)
    -the bathrooms were slightly unhygienic but like any other public bathroom. (said both genders.)
    -ques are still slow due to their loading process.
    -they have better employees
    -There's plenty of lost kids
    Tips to take with you to La Ronde, if anyone is looking to go:
    -line up to enter an hour early if you want to enter the fastest.
    -line up for the rides you want to go one first when you first get in.
    -scope out the park before going
    -study up on French, and English (most employees speak only french with minimal English)
    -security at the gates most often only speaks french (from my experience)
    -don't talk about vampire's name (it is a copy of batman, but had licensing issues)
    -just be a good park goer
    -HELP THE LOST KIDS (this happens too much)
    please keep in mind, this is my experience, and yours may be different. for reference i went on June 23rd, 2019, and they have improved since i last went in August 2017. this is not supposed to be a hate message, but instead informative, this is a note for recent park goers considering La Ronde

      ok I can understand the snack food employees not speaking English but the SECURITY?? WITH ALL EM LOST KIDS?? Thats just plain dangerous!! its the most widely spoken world language, french is not, so if a person dosent come from Quebec, chances are that persons knows at least a little English, not to mention its the second language of Quebec itself. And there wouldnt be anything done about the fact security dosent speak english, because Quebec has a grudge against english, thinks its loosing french when its totally fine, so opresses english and its speakers. vice versa with french and the rest of Canada, particularily Ontario.

    As a french Canadian, WE LEARN ENGLISH AT SCHOOL ! We can understand you. Just ask as simple it is: Can you stop your kids please... Or: Please, stop. French Canadians are not stupide and can understand at least the english basics. We fought so much back in the days for having the right to speak in french out loud in Quebec. It was almost a crime in 60's to 70's to speak french in public, french canadians were judged, cursed at... But we fought. And now, we have our rights, saying that we can speak our native tongue in public. Now we are accepted and then you juste come and say that french is one of the reasons why you don't like a freakin' theme park ? And then we still learn english at school better than you learn french at yours. Bro, sorry for going this far, but hearing you saying all those things about us make me so angry. I couldn't stay in front of my computer and hear what you say about us un this video, I had to write what was in my mind. + Poutine is a meal for us in Quebec ++The workers are amazing and well treated by their employers.

      So I have respect for everyone. If you speak french or english, it doesn't matter. The only thing I want is the same respect from people who were born in families who speak another language. Your language doesn't mean you're good, or bad or shitty.
      Anonymoose, humans are not made to be assimilated, they are made to survive. Would you like to hear it if someone says to you "Let's all assimilate everyone who speaks english !". If english is part of your culture, than french is part of ours. All we want is to defend our culture and keep it in our family as much as possible. Same thing as you want for english.

    Just went to Laronde. I went with very low expectations due to this review. I was pleasantly surprised. Low crowds, and Le Monstre is actually open now! Didn't expect to get that credit considering it's been closed since 2017, so that was nice. The meal plan worked out well for me and my group. I liked the flat ride selection as well. Titan is pretty insane. I will say though, the park needs shade for the queue lines. Much of the park looks very old and run down with overgrown weeds and old buildings that are empty. The park has potential to be very solid. Refurbish or tear down the old rides and scenery, get that Zac Spin up and going, RMC Le Monstre (unlikely), and get rid of that empty parking lot in the back beside Goliath. Throw a S&S free spin in there and maybe a dark ride, and you got a very solid park. One I'd gladly go back to.

    Like, bro you probably went to La Ronde on a weekend. I actually waited no more than 7 minutes for the Goliath on a sunny wednesday. Also if you wanna complain about the kids and the adult that was using the frickin' stall for too long, you should actually blame it on them instead of making the park's reputation go down. Also we're in a bilingual region so you should understand that we speak another language than English.
    P.S. Le Monstre is a very 'fragile' coaster since it's made out of wood so it's super normal that they close it often to check if everything is OK. Like the roller coaster is almost a 100 years old so I suggest you just shut your mouth.

    As someone who grew up in Montreal I can explain you why there is so many teenagers (and obnoxious ones) at La Ronde.
    The Thing is that La Ronde might be one of the few Six Flags that is closed to a subway Station. So makes it easy for young teenagers to go without having to rely on their parents. So every kids from Montreal , lets say age 12-17 will go with his group of friends in an unsupervised trip to La Ronde. Imagine your 14 and for the first time your going out with your friends without any parents to a theme park: you get the picture.

    I live in Montreal and I go to this park every year. This park is not for tourists. People do not come to Montreal to go to La Ronde, so it is predominately filled with locals. Oh, Quebec is French, so get over it! This park is crap because Six Flags doesn’t care. Yes, there are a few great rides, but it is run down and dirty. Broken rides like the Cobra and Le Pitoune are left there to rot. The employees are not pleasant either. There is also not enough employees at the front gates, and it takes forever for the baggage check. If Six Flags would hire better management, it could be a lot better. A coat of paint could help! I seriously believe Six Flags writes La Ronde off as a tax loss. This park has a great history which is lost by owners who don’t care! It’s a real shame, and considering there are no other amusements close by, we are stuck with this one. Please somebody buy this park and restore it to its glory days!

    I feel like a lot of people missed the point of the whole review. So many dislikes over poutine lol. Look, he said he was dissatisfied with the portion size. A cheeseburger is considered a meal in America. But if you got a small burger like a slider, you would be upset that that’s all you got. And then even more upset if you were to find out that a full size burger was NOT included on the meal plan. Meal is about portion, not the item itself in my opinion. But beyond that, his poor review what NOT centered around food. It was centered around long lines, bad aesthetics, rude employees and fellow guests, closed rides, and the ones that were open were only running one train and slowing things down further. That sounds like a horrible day if you’re spending the $60-$70 PLUS parking it takes to get into a typical Six Flags park lol. It’s $64.99 plus like $20 parking here at Six Flags St. Louis and it is considered one of the worst Six Flags. Get over yourselves, dislikers. He had a bad experience. He told you about it. Not up to you to tell him how HIS experience was.

    There are a bunch of narcissists and ignorant people saying that Taylor complained about people speaking a different language than him. If you actually pay attention, you would realize that he actually said was "Look, I've never been one to hate on teenagers at parks because I know not all teenagers are like that, but it certainly felt that way at La Ronde. There was no respect for personal space, they didn't care, and it doesn't help that you get a weird mix of people speaking French and English so not only are they being obnoxious but you can't tell them to please stop because they speak a different language than you."

    Living in Montreal, I used to go to La Ronde ALOT when I was a kid. There was a magical ambiance and I actually felt welcomed (and I'm pretty sure it's not childhood nostalgia). All the game stalls were open, rides were rarely closed, employees and people weren't rude. Having experienced it in the last 2-3 years, I've noticed how much Six Flags just didn't give a sh*t about this amusement park. They cut on everything. Everythings looks dead or on the edge of death/closure. Seriously, they don't even clean up after themselves: there's ride corpses EVERYWHERE. I really don't know what to tell you about the people though, I noticed that too. From what I gathered and figured out, most of them are from the south shore (450) and I felt everytime I entered La Ronde I was in a jungle with a bunch of primates. It is now a sh*tfest and I'm really sorry you had to experience this once magical park (at least to me) in it's current state.

I had a pass from teens to early 20s, kind of stopped going and started getting a pass a few years ago to go as a family. I noticed how many family rides have been taken away (they were old, pieces are hard to find, I get it) but never ever really replaced with anything else. Cool we got some new thrill rides, but I feel there's missing those rides for 5-9 year olds, or even for those that are slightly older but like milder rides. Those who are getting a little too old for ribambelle but not quite old enough (nor tall) for things like the pirate ship.

    I think the trains you saw will be the new 2020 ride,where Cobra was.
    Entry line : 3:45:12 minutes
    Monstre : open and fixed (I remember is breaking when I rode it)
    This was my experience at La Ronde.

    Pretty much everything you said is accurate, sadly. The rides are pretty lame, and the staff are ridiculously rude. If you don't speak French, they'll pretend that they don't speak English, and treat you like complete garbage. My thoughts on the place entirely was; "why bother?"
    But, as for the poutine... "it's just fries with stuff on it... it's not a meal." CLEARLY, you have never had proper Canadian poutine before. I don't know what sizes they serve there, because I didn't eat a damn thing, with their overpriced menus. But, real Canadian poutine is be served like Italian spaghetti. Plate; LOADED.

    I just went to La Ronde and maybe I got lucky, but this park had the best operations of the 8 Six Flags parks I've been to. They ran two trains on so many coasters, including Ednor. The dispatches were solid as well, no rides ever broke down apart from Titan for one day, and the line to get in moved much faster than when you went. I believe the park's operations have improved greatly, the staff and guests were both nice, and the poutine was more than large enough to be dinner. I think you should give the park another chance, maybe if they add a new roller coaster.

      @@jonay3699 Respect it? Sure. But it's not like I expect tourists visiting Sweden to be able to speak Swedish, that's just silly. And even if they did speak a little I'd probably switch to English or Spanish since it'd be easier to hold a conversation.
      The thing is I expect both partys to cooperate holding the conversation, or why even bother? E.g. if I go outside of tourist areas in Thailand I expect that people barely know any English at all so I will bring a dictionary for some words, use simple English words or just communicate non-verbally.
      Visiting France was quite annoying though. Some people were very nice and welcoming, while some would straight up refuse to speak any English at all. I get annoyed at the refusal to even attempt to communicate. It's not like me saying "How much?" and pointing at an item is very hard to understand. Been traveling my whole life and France was where I had the hardest time to communicate with some people in.

    @layla.a 6 ปีที่แล้ว +488

    Look I know that LaRonde has some issue but considering the fact that it’s the only six flags amusement park in Quebec, it’s great. Us locals appreciate what we have even if we have to wait 45-60 minutes in a line (and I’ve waited longer in other amusement parks).
    The fact that there are so many people isn’t surprising, people love going there during summer time and they enjoy it. And the fact that there were so many teenagers was because there were school trips. If you’d went on another day maybe then there would be less kids but what did you expect? It was the end of the year so that means a lot of schools organize trips.
    The fact that people speak French and English isn’t an issue. It’s a _bilingual_ city, of course people will speak different languages. You could’ve easily tried to talk to the man in te bathroom with his two kids and maybe he would’ve understood, but you didn’t even bother trying because you noticed that he spoke French.
    When you go to a different country you’ve got to accept the fact that the food and people there will be different. While you think poutine isn’t a meal, some people eat that for lunch, because here in Canada it is considered a meal.
    I don’t know what high standards you had for LaRonde, but it’s not perfect. We’re trying to make it better and at least some people appreciate every aspects of it.
    You decided to go to LaRonde and if you didn’t like the way it was, than that’s on _you_ and you’ve got nobody else to blame but you.
