Toronto women definitely better than women in nearby cities like London, Hamilton, Saint Catharines, etc. Now women from those places are truly deplorable

I'm a Montrealer, I can give you a few spots that I frequent.

1.For sushi my go to spot is Saint Sushi on Duluth. It's quality product, well made, they play good music and the price is very low for what it is. Tasting menu is 35$ and you leave full and knowing what the place is all about.

2. If you can deal with the lineup or are able to show up during the day outside of lunch or dinner hours a half chicken with fries and salad from Ma Poule Mouillée on Rachel is 12$. You will be hooked.

3.If you haven't tried a smoked meat at Schwartz Deli yes it is worth a try and very good. Do it like a local though. If you show up during the day you're going to see a giant lineup but right next to Schwartz Deli is a Schwartz Deli counter, just walk in and order a sandwich medium with a black cherry soda. Lives up to the hype if you didn't wait 30 minutes to get it..

4.I don't know if I can really recommend a caribbean restaurant to someone from Toronto but I make a point of hitting up a little Trini spot called Tropical Paradise on Decarie whenever the wife and I are uptown. Everything is good there.

5.iL Focolio and Santa Lucia both have one of the few wood burning ovens left in downtown Montreal and make sick pizza.

6.For stripclubs it's Chez Paree or Kamasutra that will have the most girls working.

7. Mixology cocktails you're looking for Coldroom in Old Montreal(you have to ring a doorbell to get in), Le Mal Necessaire in Chinatown, Big in Japan Bar on St Laurent Blvd (there's a restaurant with the same name, that's not what you're looking for, this is a speakeasy with no sign so google the address before you head over), Atwater Cocktail Club kind of like a less good but more of a on the scene Barchef.

8.If you're a clubber inbox me and I'll tell you what's popping on any given night. During the week it's only or 1-2 places that are good at a time. On weekends in the summer the city fills up with tourists and all the main places are pretty busy.

9. Some other good moves are getting a coffee from Cafe Olimpico. Grab a bagel from St Viateur Bagel or Fairmount Bagel(we're better at bagels than New York). Jog up Mount Royal and get a view of the whole city. Grab a poutine from any non chain restaurant, the sketchier and frencher the place is the better it's going to be. Walk through the underground city downtown with miles and miles of malls and buildings connecting to each other. Our casino is trash but i've been to worse. Beachclub outside the city sometimes has hip hop acts. There's always some kind of festival going in Montreal from week to week all summer long.

Enjoy

Thanks breh, this is dope. Cafe Olymico is a very nice little spot, watched a few World Cup games last time I was in town and atmosphere was great.

@trick check out one of these shows if you’re in town any of the dates The concerts | Festival International Nuits d'Afrique de Montréal

Also given that you’re a sports fan, I’d recommend an Impact game if you’ve never been. Can typically find decently priced tickets, it’s a nice venue to watch a match with no bad seats, and good atmosphere.

Not exactly breh
In 5 years just over 200k look at other races

That's nothing

The 70-90s leap thanks to Trudeau will never happen again


The Chinese and Indian population are getting 100,000 plus new folks in every year

It takes black folks 5 years just to grow 200k

We are done
