oh yes, montreal... once the bustling economic capital of canada, now some lonely backwater all because they refuse to play ball in a world where english is the language of business. i was born there, and my family was essentially chased out by seperatists. any time i go back i am reminded of why i don't like the city much -- they really do make it as tough as possible to do anything or get around if you dont speak french [and i still don't]. what's worse is that road signs, product packaging, and whatever else has to be BILINGUAL all across canada, but in quebec it can be french only. have LE FUN.
