Why even bother speaking French if you can't do it properly. It's mind boggling to say the least.

An English Gentlemen while abroad doesn't concern himself with the demonic babbling of the locals.

That's the reality here, slightly better than Vancouver but barely. Even the 905 areas are becoming too expensive. New builds in Markham are over 700k for barely over 2000sqf.

Originally posted by racer59 View PostYeah, I'm sure they do but you'd also have to subject yourself to hearing locals attempting to speak to each other in very bad French.
Originally posted by jaded View PostThat's not exactly right...and many simply don't want to. It's a pretty contentious issue.
Montreal is a very welcoming city to tourists, no matter what language they speak or what country they come from. English speaking tourists will receive better treatment than unilingual Anglos who actually live here and should be able to speak French to begin with. There is ignorance on both sides of the coin. Anyone who is proud to be unilingual is a damn fool.
