It’s a big reason why Toronto is huge now. Back in the 70’s, Montreal was Canada’s flagship city for business, etc. Then, their provincial gov passed Bill 101 (French is required as the primary language), Quebec (the province where Mtl is) tried to separate from Canada a couple times, etc.
U.S investors were like “CRINE f*** that” and moved all their business to Toronto, effectively TERRAFORMING it on some Dubai s***.
People from Mtl till this day harbour jealousy and angst towards Toronto, while it’s their own people’s & provinces fault for playing music that scared the chicks off.

Montreal not that racist lol, go outside of the city in the rest of Quebec and you might get some weird interactions if u not white or dont speak french
Great night life, great food, public transit is aight, prostitution is legal like amsterdam, extremely cheap cost of living, etc. The city is a lil dirty here and there but it's really the best place on earth if u a young dude

Facts lol
Aside from actual cops (who are pretty much bigoted everywhere) you won't see that much racism. The most you'll see is in the interviewing processes where niggas will throw your CV away if they think you have a black/arab name or landlords that will sometimes ghost u once they find out you're black.
Now go outside of the big cities in the rest of Quebec and that's a different story lmao, way closer to Georgia lol

The thing though is that people from Montreal are different than the rest of Quebec, most people here are bilingual and don't give a single f*** about Bill 101.
When the other parts of Quebec pushed for this bill, Montrealers felt resentment towards them because people didn't care for it here and it took away a lot of business opportunities.

In Montreal, you’ll be “relatively” fine if you just speak English. But finding work will be stupid hard if you’re not bilingual.
Toronto’s the place to be if you’re looking to make money. Sure, things are more expensive, but generally each industry has PLENTY of jobs to go around.
You should become bilingual if you're in canada though bro
The job opportunities you'll get is f***ing stupid lmaoooo
The fed will employ ppl for crazy money who are underqualified just because they're bilingual

Lived in both for multiple years, loved Toronto 10x more.
Mtl would be better only in the case if you’ve got old money, decent house & a good job.

PIMPWe wouldnt know but since you're from "Europe" its close to home culturally & architecturally
It isn’t at all don’t listen to this guy
French people from france move there and feel out of place
Québécois culture is distinct but Montreal itself is a mix of quebecois, canadian, American. It’s definitely very North American especially to someone from UK
The differences are only noticeable if you’re from like the states or english canada

Rurul quebec is wwayyyyy worse than rural Georgia
All my extended fam is in GA and i spent time there. The whole state is black af. Outside the atl area they might be ultra conservative weirdos but they definitely still are used to interacting with black people
Rural quebec is literally 99% white

I came here for uni and did not speak any french, but for work it depends, service jobs you probably should know how, others not as necessary
Daily life it's no problem but it's nice to learn
