[quote=Anonymous]DP. Is this a done deal? Or are you just thinking about moving to Montreal? I used to live in Montreal many years ago when there was a referendum to separate Quebec from Canada. The vote was 49.4 yes and 50.6 no or something like that. So Quebec stayed. But there was tension for many years before that. Things were calm for a while but in recent years, Quebec has passed several laws and adopted practices that are frankly discriminatory. I echo the other PP who said as an anglophone, I would not live there with a family. I speak French and it improved while living in Montreal. I was single when I lived there and I still love Montreal - but to visit, not to live there. It is hard to live in a place where you are treated as a second class citizen, even if you speak French. You're still not "pure laine". But you asked about neighborhoods - Westmount is a nice area for Anglophones. Outremont is also nice - many orthodox Jews live here. [/quote]
