Montreal is an absolute shit hole. I know, I live there. Junkies on every corner in every borough. Safe injection sites for junkies. Loads of homeless people (I was one for 7 years). Mafia, crime, gangs, shootings, drugs etc).
I went back in march of last year for a few days and loved it also the food was amazing. Would love to go back some day, I live in Ontario so I most likely will
As an anglophone that has lived my whole life in Montreal, here are some corrections: 1) Notre Dame Basilica is pronounced as Notre DAM (As in an electric dam) Basicila in English here. 2) There is no such thing as Old Town Montreal. It's called the Old Port.
Montreal is a beautiful city. For me personally, I love Quebec city. My Dad is from Quebec, i was vorn and raised in Ontario. We go to Quebec often. Its beautiful.

Montrealers should be grateful to live in a place where the authorities don't let their infrastructures crumble like in many other major cities across North-America. Cones are annoying, but they mean that work is being done
Love how well kept it is and the European architecture is extremely prevalent! Beautiful

Ma ville préférée de tout L'Amérique Nord
As a Canadian this is so nice to see, and btw I’m in Montreal rn and it it awesome
My favorite city in all of North America.
it's much safer than Toronto or Vancouver! Crime is Lower in Montreal all though every city has it's good and bad parts!
Its a nice city
#1 is to come over during the summer time !!!
It has been a few years since I visited Montreal, and you really captured its beauty!
FYI, almost as good smoked meat can be found at Snowdon Deli (on the less than scenic Decarie Blvd) and Lester's (on the far nicer Bernard in Outremont).
In my opinion Snowdon Deli is better than Schwartz's. Everyone has their favourite.
Montreal autumn 2023.
Keep up the great work 👏
Vive le Québec!
Montreal looks like a mix of London,Paris,Berlin and cities in Italy
Montreal is an absolute shit hole. I know, I live there. Junkies on every corner in every borough. Safe injection sites for junkies. Loads of homeless people (I was one for 7 years). Mafia, crime, gangs, shootings, drugs etc).

Such a tourist! I live in Montreal...so much to see...
Beautiful city. Mean people.
Thank you for sharing.😊😊
It is awesome
Great city!
looks like Montreal is the most European city on North American continent.
Quebec city.
When its sunny it looks like western europe more or less like france
Lmao this video show only the old port, if you go in downtown you will see is more closer to any North American city than European one
Then my friend you have to visit Quebec City. It’s even more “European look alike” than Montreal.
And I thought Quebec City was the other major Quebecer tourist trap; however, Quebec City would instead be comparable to smaller French cities.
I live just over the border from montreal and I love it
Montreal really looks like a cool place to visit
Glad you love my city!
Beautiful
Very nice🌹🌹🌹
Wow
My birth place! 'Nough said!
Absolutely ❤️ 💯
I prefer Old Quebec. Feels way more like a French town, it’s super quaint and gorgeous in Christmas. Montreal feels like NYC or something similar.
Mtl does not feel like NYC at all. Toronto, on the other hand...
⚜️🔰 cool
In three weeks. Looking forward to it😊😊
Wow! Merci Pat.
Ça fait différent du Québec Bashing...
Laval too
Because Montreal is frickin beautiful, thats why!
I went back in march of last year for a few days and loved it also the food was amazing. Would love to go back some day, I live in Ontario so I most likely will
The way he pronounced Notre dame🥲
👌👌
❤❤❤
The city is beautiful, the people are absolutely have absolutely sewer worthy attitudes
If you ask people where "old town Montreal" is, they'll give you a wtf stare, cause there's no such thing. It's old Montreal, or vieux Montréal.
Actually, it Old Port or Vieux Port. NOBODY calls it old Montreal or Vieux Montreal
As an anglophone that has lived my whole life in Montreal, here are some corrections:
1) Notre Dame Basilica is pronounced as Notre DAM (As in an electric dam) Basicila in English here.
2) There is no such thing as Old Town Montreal. It's called the Old Port.
In French we make a distinction between "Le vieux port" et "Le vieux Montréal" (often shortened to "le vieux").
@@hdufort I've never heard this so called shortneed form
Old Montreal not Old Town
@@hdufort Same in English - Old Port and Old Montreal. That is how it is where I grew up and how the tour guides refer to these parts of the city.
As a québécois American it is lovely
Montreal is a beautiful city. For me personally, I love Quebec city. My Dad is from Quebec, i was vorn and raised in Ontario. We go to Quebec often. Its beautiful.
Montreal'planning is the french style.

Your comment is litteraly just a comment.
And a viewpoint you don’t see the specialty in it?

Totally missed the Basilica. Mount Royal was a nice surprise & heard they snow Ski.
What he missed was Oratoire St-Joseph...
I live there
M living in montreal and i see everything normal.
🇨🇦👍
Notre Dam is always under management 😵💫😵💫
I live here
As a Montreal resident, I approve this video.
Overrated city
Don't forget to visit hurley irish pub on crescent street. They have the best guiness this side of the Atlantic ocean.
Notre deym
I went to montreal 2019 November right before covid. My hotel has new names but it was pronounced “goovernot hotel” corner of st Catherine. McDonald’s right around corner!!! Can’t forget Canada
moi qui habite déjà à Montréal : OUI
You can see the British influence
I just spent 2 weeks in Montreal, it was amazing! I'd recommend it over going to Europe any day; it's way cheaper and more approachable.
What’s there to do for 2 weeks?
I live here, I eat too much poutine 😂
What's poutine ?😊
I did all that in two days
I'm spending a weekend in Montreal with my 8yr old son. Any suggestions on what to check out?
You can enjoy a Montreal guided bus tour and it will give you ideas where to continue your visit...
St Viator Bagels. The Oratory! You can drive/park at the top of the mountain. The gay village is amazing on weekends. Fantastic museums (beaux arts).
U FORGOT TIM HORTONS WITH DES TIMBiTS
Depends where you are 😶
What month was this?
I live near montreal
Coming to Montreal for six days in August with my nephew....wondering if we need to rent a car if we plan on staying local 🤔🤷♀️
Most great places to visit are close to a metro station and there are also Bixi bikes that you can rent. Walking is an option too.
The trifecta of large churches: Notre-Dame, Saint-Joseph, Marie-Reine-du-Monde.
It is a nice place but geez bro americans cant pronounce french at all. Old port is also very fun.
You should check out Quebec City
Old town is referred to as Old Port
Instead of visiting Notre Dame, visit the Angrignon metro station
Pov I do live in montreal 😅
The area is called old Montreal. The actual port is called the old port.
And turns out I’ve been living here for 20 years haha
❤️✝️✝️✝️✝️✝️😍
These are definitely the top 5 touristy things to do lol
Go see a game of the Mtl Canadiens
i aggre i live in moreal and poutine and tht steak samwich is the best i live a little far from it but i drive there every 2 weeks
Endless construction.. nope
I grew up in Montreal and I agree Montreal’s Notre Dame is outstanding. I was so disappointed with the interior when I visited Notre Dame Paris. Montreal far far superior.
To the traffic to the construction I live near Montreal and Montreal has a lot of pollution and a lot of traffic and the construction here is massive
You forgot to mention Stock bar
Bro, I live next Montréal and I hate it
even in our tourist spots where millions of photos are taken every year, the haunting reality of cones still linger in the thoughts of Montrealers
Montrealers should be grateful to live in a place where the authorities don't let their infrastructures crumble like in many other major cities across North-America. Cones are annoying, but they mean that work is being done
