@@patrickhundley1203 it's the best way to do it, instead of living in a hotel. I lived in MTL for 10 years. I understand the attraction to the city, but living there was a nightmare. 99% of Canada is woods, lake, peace and quiet. That's why i live for.

@@clairemercier3969 Maybe your circle actually despises poutine as a low-brow dish - and there is some truth to it - but it is very popular in Montreal and the rest of Quebec as well. It's not only a "tourist" food, by any means.

Hello, I hope you're safe over there? I hope this year brings happiness, prosperity, love 💚 , and peace all over the world 🌏.

Greetings from Montreal. You made a wise choice in making Montreal your first journey outside the U.S. I'm glad you enjoyed our city as well. There are special poutine restos that only serve a multitude of different Poutine. If the ones you had blew your mind, then be prepared on your next visit. Summers are best, Festival Season. Hopefully, you will return again in the future.
I know both Montreal and Quebec City well and visit them as often as I can. It was very interesting to hear about them from the point of view of a first time tourist. This was a nice video. Thanks.
Poutine and bagels in Montreal. Smoked meat....ok they have a lot of great restaurants. Glad you enjoyed Montreal! I live in Downtown Toronto and I love going to Montreal. Going to see the Habs play is an event too. Although they haven't been so great lately. Come on Habs!!
Another Montrealer here to tell you that you did a great job representing our city! There is so much more to see! A hockey game at the Bell Center, the Olympic stadium, a tennis match at Jarry Park and of course smoked meat!!! (First smoked meat THEN .... smoked meat poutine.... yes it is as wonderful as it sounds)
This guy is an Artist . Waiting hours even at night for the perfect picture gives impressonant result . He is passionate in is love for scenery and trasmit is entousiame to other . KUDO
The best time to be in Montreal is in July when it comes alive with 142 outdoor concerts and festivals..a unique vibe no other city has is the people..out in the streets dancing, playing music and just having a great time…
As a Montrealer I gotta say man, you're right about poutine. Best noms in existence!! Glad you enjoyed my city man, really warms my heart to see people enjoying my hometown :)
5:44 We can tell you're american by the way you describe people who ride public transport haha; taking the bus is very normal and in fact its quite the opposite here. Most people who take the bus are young working individuals in the city! No shame in it!!! On the contrary older retired people are usually in their cars driving themselves places. Toronto, Montreal, Edmonton, Vancouver and even some places in the middle of nowhere have Public Transport systems. I visited Mont-Tremblant and they had a bus system as well!
I spent a lot of time on instagram and reddit looking at other people's photos and figuring out where they were for some of mine, but there was a good portion i just happened to stumble upon. I kept my camera with me the whole time since I was constantly finding beautiful shots!
Thanks for visiting Montreal .a UNESCO design city like Berlin ... you should come during summer ... it is like New Yorld city with festivals , fun and hot weather ( 90 f)

The new REM (réseau express métropolitain) just opened today and you should try it next time you visit the city. I am a 60 year old Montrealer and one thing I like about the city is the bike trails. Next time you visit I will be glad to show you the trail that goes from old Montreal all the way to lake St-Louis or the one from St-Lambert to Varennes. These trails are beautiful. You can also take a shuttle on the St-Laurence river on one of the Navark shuttles.
WOW! Absolutely breathtaking dude!!! Those Timelapses were stunning and you did such a great job of capturing the best Montreal had to offer! Great job my dude!!
If you loved Montreal in May you should visit end of June to mid October....first off, all the festivals week after week and the fall colours are something to experience :D
Montreal is so fun to walk around love the older areas of our city I love Halifax Nova Scotia also. The thing I love about Montreal is when I hear people speaking a mixture of English and French
Loved your ode to poutine 😄 Have you tried it in different flavors? Like with smoked meat, Portuguese chicken & merguez, etc? So happy you took the time to go to Quebec city as well; people often go just to Montreal, but miss one of the best part of our Belle Province with Quebec city! So glad you enjoyed it! 😊
@@patrickhundley1203 The good old reliable for me is the Benny restaurant poutine au poulet, with shredded chicken. I also got often a sweet potatoes poutine with extra chipotle sauce while I was working at A&W's.
Glad to hear you enjoyed Montreal! Montreal was love at first sight for me and hopefully my future home. There is no place like it on the North American continent.
As a Quebecois , i traveled across all the province and the Québec city region is the most beautiful place of the province Charlevoix region 40 minutes north , La Beauce 30 minutes east Laurentien park north ouest , Jacques- Cartier park , stonham region ( hollywood went there for TV series . So many things to see there ...
Nice vid. Great time lapse from the Jacques Cartier bridge. You spent a lot of time on St-Helen island… but indeed the skyline is great from there. I wish you showed what the poutine looked like 😅. Every small fast food shack are claiming they have the best one. And yes, we’re still baffled as why this dish is not mainstream in the US !!
Lindo vídeo !!! Tem paisagens muito caprichadamente escolhidas e de fato esta Cidade tem locais bastante interessantes e belíssimos . É notório que seus habitantes são bem humorados, esperadamente civilizados, além de naturalmente simpáticos !!!
I hope you went out to bar / club , the night life here is insane. You made me appreciate my city by the long shot from day to night , really well done !

Nice video. I am also a photographer. And go all the time. Totally my favorite city in north america. Hey. Note the mountain is one of the largest Necropol in the world. So full of Ghosts ......oh and montreal got crazy architecture and some sick. Subway stations . one of the only city. With this much Art. Maybe the only rival is san fran
I like your time lapse videography, and the use of music throughout. I understand what you mean when you say there's not much to do in old Montreal (there's a lot of tourist trap), but I cannot totally agree. There is a science museum right by the Saint Lawrence River. There is also an archaeology & history museum, which I'll visit again in a couple of days.
Beautiful video! As a Canadian I really enjoyed this about one of the most charming cities! One of my brothers' studied in Montreal. I live outside of Toronto. I really found the part about the poutine original and funny! The poutine tastes much better in Montreal than the poutine I have tried in Ontario though. And you poked the milk bag haha!
Great video, honesty, no BS, the essentials, glad you enjoyed Montréal and Québec as whole as it's quite unique in NA and I'm working to make this place a country one day.
🤣🤣🤣! You seem to like poutine! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I don’t blame you it is amazing! 🤣🤣🤣 for the botanical garden your opinion about it would change if you talked to any of the cool gardeners maintaining it. Yes the round about on the bicycle path is very unique as I recognized it right away. There is only one. 🤣🤣🤣 very good video! Well done. When you come back to Montreal make sure that you go to China town for dim sum while listening to Leonard Cohen music. If you like winter Montreal is very nice to visit during winter.
Great video! I hadn’t been to Montreal 4 years due to the pandemic. The metro trains are brand new…do they still have rubber tires? Only other one I’ve seen was the Mexico City subway. Anyway, there are sites out there where people offer their places for house- and pet-sitting so you can go away for long periods of time without worrying about lodging. Something to look into as you get into doing more travel abroad!
A few lines in Paris are with rubber tires. Montreal and Mexico City bought the technology when they built their subway system. The decision makers (back in the 60s) say that they are quieter and have better acceleration.
I was actually pet sitting for someone i knew! I also thought the rubber tires were strange on the metro, it made a lot of noise when they were going fast, but the trains were really nice otherwise!
So many interesting moments in your video, and so many comments ! Not sure if you knew, but the Biosphere that appears at the beginning and end (the metallic sphere with violet lighting) used to be the US pavilion in the 1967 World Exposition (Expo 67). Designed by R. Buckminster Fuller, it is one of the few original pavilions still standing. It was ceded to the city by President Lyndon Johnson.
Sigh. The American mentality of thinking buses are for old or poor people. Enjoyed your video! I’m American who moved to Montréal years back. Ok… which park had that self cleaning self disinfecting bathroom?? I never heard of that 😮
Yeah, that comment was a bit insulting to older people. Either he thinks that only older people ride the bus, or he thinks that they cannot ride bikes.
I spent my first month away from home in Montreal many years ago. Came back several years later to live there during school for a few years and have visited ever since. That City will be forever in my soul and I’m glad you enjoyed it! ❤
Dude remember that poutine as it was, what you had there was a real poutine. Even we (Quebequers) make modifications to the recipe sometimes but a real poutine is cheese, fries and gravy and it will always be the best. I am baffled that you managed to find things to do in Montreal for a full month, I guess that's the sign of a true traveler, you must be a natural. Hope you had a couple nights out at the bar and got a chance to meet some of us as well during your trip, I would say most of us are really good people. Cheers
Kudos for a first-time traveler! You are so well-documented Your videos and pictures are magnificent. You captured the essence of living in Montreal (and left out the annoyances, like construction cones and trash). Your video of Jean-Talon station, the bridges, the islands, the Belvedere by the footpath, ... means that you explored a lot of corners of Montreal, something that many Montrealers have never done. Thank you for visiting us! I am a Quebecer who grew up in Montreal. What do you have in store on your day trip to Quebec? Looking forward to see it.
Love your review and video, great images. Can’t get over the fact that as a Montrealer I realise that I’m frustrated to see a very basic apartment being rented as another Rbnb when there is a completly out of control housing crisis going on here. Not your fault of course, i do not wish to focus on that, but I had to make this observation.
As a Montrealer I really hope you enjoyed Montreal and honoured that you chose Montreal as your first destination outside of the USA.
I know someone who lives there and they were going on their own trip and asked if I wanted to stay at their place while they were gone, so it sort of chose me, but I'm so glad it did!

You forgot the Jazz festival.
there are a ton of festivals all year round@@rulinghabs igloofest and nuits d'afrique are a few of my favourites
Merci pour ta visite chez nous. You are most welcome to come back and visit us again in the future.
I definitely plan on it!

I definitely do want to come back!
I live in NYC, Montreal is my fave city outside of New York. The shopping, the creative people, its awesome.
Very well put together with some great time lapses and other special effects. I love Montreal!
Haha - just realized I commented here a year ago - must be a great video to keep me coming back!
From Toronto, but so glad you did this! I love Montreal! Beautiful, and vibrant city! Its also an Island! Keep on seein the world buddy!

The "Mountain" is Mount Royal. French: "Mont Royal" Say it fast: Montreal :) I agree on your take about Poutine as well.

I hope you enjoyed my hometown. Looks like you hit some pretty sweet spots in the city. I agree, Poutine does rock!

Man your rant on poutine killed me 😂. You picked the perfect city for your first trip!
As a Quebecois , i traveled across all the province and the Québec city region is the most beautiful place of the province
Charlevoix region 40 minutes north , La Beauce 30 minutes east
Laurentien park north ouest ,
Jacques- Cartier park , stonham
region ( hollywood went there for
TV series .
So many things to see there ...
Love your enthusiasm for poutine. You also have a great eye for photography. Thanks' for liking the city where I was born.

Great video, glad to see the Metro and Bixis (bike rentals) treated you well. Montreal is a great city
I love places that it's not inconvenient to go car free, and Montreal checked all the boxes easily
Awesome city. Dont get to go there often enough as i live in Alberta.

Poutine is a must! It should be more expanded outside Quebec. This is a fast food dish a lot of American people would really like to eat.

Sigh. The American mentality of thinking buses are for old or poor people. Enjoyed your video! I’m American who moved to Montréal years back. Ok… which park had that self cleaning self disinfecting bathroom?? I never heard of that 😮
Now you need to find poutine in N.Y. They have! 🎉
(5:40) I'm guessing only 75-year-olds ride the bus wherever this guy is from...?
Yeah, that comment was a bit insulting to older people. Either he thinks that only older people ride the bus, or he thinks that they cannot ride bikes.
The biosphere was the American pavilion at Expo 67.
Mont royal is a public park usually cloed from 11 pm to 6 am
I spent my first month away from home in Montreal many years ago. Came back several years later to live there during school for a few years and have visited ever since. That City will be forever in my soul and I’m glad you enjoyed it! ❤
Fantastic video! Glad you enjoyed Mtl :)
Ok. Now I'm homesick. Haven't been home in 5 years. Great video.
sweet vlog, very informative!
Dude remember that poutine as it was, what you had there was a real poutine.
Even we (Quebequers) make modifications to the recipe sometimes but a real poutine is cheese, fries and gravy and it will always be the best.
I am baffled that you managed to find things to do in Montreal for a full month, I guess that's the sign of a true traveler, you must be a natural.
Hope you had a couple nights out at the bar and got a chance to meet some of us as well during your trip, I would say most of us are really good people.
Cheers
The people there were just as wonderful as the poutine!
Kudos for a first-time traveler! You are so well-documented Your videos and pictures are magnificent. You captured the essence of living in Montreal (and left out the annoyances, like construction cones and trash). Your video of Jean-Talon station, the bridges, the islands, the Belvedere by the footpath, ... means that you explored a lot of corners of Montreal, something that many Montrealers have never done. Thank you for visiting us!
I am a Quebecer who grew up in Montreal. What do you have in store on your day trip to Quebec? Looking forward to see it.
Thank you for the kind words!
ouhhh ! so glad you had a nice time over here ! ... great great comment about poutine !!!
Merci! Au revoir! 🤗
Fantastic travel video!
Thank you!
Love your review and video, great images. Can’t get over the fact that as a Montrealer I realise that I’m frustrated to see a very basic apartment being rented as another Rbnb when there is a completly out of control housing crisis going on here. Not your fault of course, i do not wish to focus on that, but I had to make this observation.
If it makes you feel better, I was pet sitting for someone i know while they were in vacation, not an airbnb. I don't like them either.
The bag of milk is only in Eastern Canada , we are more American like out west 🤭🤭
