Montreal

The second-largest city in Canada and the largest city in the province of Quebec, Montreal’s first name was Ville-Marie or, 'City of Mary'. Legend has it that the city got its present name from the Mont Réal or Mont Royal / Mount Royal as in French, after the three-head hill at the heart of the city. The official language of Montreal is French and it is among the five largest French-speaking cities in the world. Nicknamed 5-1-4, MTL and City of Saints the official motto of the city is Concordia Salus ("well-being through harmony"). Montreal was incorporated as a city in 1832. After World War I, the Prohibition movement in the United States turned Montreal into a haven for Americans looking for alcohol. Montreal became known as Sin City, due to the abundance of alcohol and burlesque shows, unrivalled in North America at this time. The city's international status was cemented by Expo 67 and the 1976 Summer Olympics. Montreal was merged with the 27 surrounding municipalities on the Island of Montreal on January 1, 2002. The merger created a unified city of Montreal which covered the entire island of Montreal. This move however proved unpopular, and several former municipalities, totaling 13% of the population of the island, voted to leave the newly unified city. The de-merger took place on January 1, 2006, leaving 15 municipalities on the island, including Montreal.

- Montreal was the capital of the Province of Canada from 1844 to 1849, but lost its status when a Tory mob burnt down the Parliament building to protest passage of the Rebellion Losses Bill.

- Tipping practices are similar to those in the United States: 15% to 20% of restaurant bills, 10% to 15% for taxi drivers, C$1 (US80¢) per bag for porters, C$1 (US80¢) per night for the hotel room attendant. Hairdressers and barbers expect 10% to 15%. Hotel doormen should be tipped for calling a taxi or other services.

- Most goods and services in Canada are taxed 7% by the federal government. On top of that, the province of Québec has an additional 8% tax on goods and services,
