Montreal

Montreal (ahem: mon rayahl) is nice, but you really need to speak French to talk to most people.  Not all, but most of them.  (Though I did wonder sometimes if they just did it to giggle at my French!)  Having a good map of the Metro helps, too.   And don't assume (like we did) that oh, we won't need Canadian cash,  we'll just pay for everything with our non-chipped US credit cards.  Yeah, about that....

I have been through Montreal but never struggled to get around the city. Now, perhaps, I will just stick with Ottawa and Toronto.

Well, I'd like to think they will eventually finish the bulk of it. In theory!
