Welcome to Everything Montreal! If it's in or around Montreal, you will find it at Everything Montreal.

Montreal, or Montréal in French, is the second-largest city in Canada and the largest city in the province of Quebec. Originally called Ville-Marie ('City of Mary'), some historians think the city takes its present name from the Mont Réal (as it was pronounced in Middle French, or Mont Royal / Mount Royal in present French), the three-head hill at the heart of the city, whose name was also initially given to the island on which the city is located.

Formerly the largest city in Canada, it is now positioning itself as the second-largest French-speaking city in the world. As of the 2006 Canadian Census, 1,620,693 people resided in the city of Montreal proper, of which roughly half live and work in English, half in French. The population of the Montreal Census Metropolitan Area (also known as Greater Montreal Area) was 3,635,571 at the same 2006 census. This larger census metropolitan area, which includes all the former suburbs that were swallowed up by the mega city, is predominantly French-speaking, bringing the average figure for "language most spoken at home" to 70.5% of the population (as of 2006 census). In 2007, Montreal was ranked as the 10th cleanest city in the world.
