InterNations — A Community for American Expats in Montréal
Hello to all Americans in Montréal! Are you interested in getting to know fellow expats in Montréal? Looking for advice from other Americans, e.g. wondering if there are any bars in Montréal which will be showing your favorite baseball or American football team’s upcoming match or where to go in town for st￭ turkey?
There’s no doubt about it: Montréal is among the top choices for expats interested in Canada — though life in Montréal can be very different to life in, say, Toronto, due to Québec’s unique identity within the country. The Ville de Montréal is a very multicultural city known for being the second-largest French-speaking city after Paris, its very varied food scene, the numerous festivals, theaters, dance companies, and much more! With the modern transportation network of subway trains (Metro) and bus lines, navigating your way around the city from one place to the next is simple. This also means that if you don’t want to live among the hustle and bustle of the center, you can enjoy a quieter life in the cities of Montréal’s metro region, such as Laval or Longueuil, which are just a simple commute away from Montréal’s center.
Although Montréal has lots to offer, you might be wondering where and how you can meet other Americans in the city. Luckily, InterNations is here to make this easier for you! You’re warmly invited to join the InterNations community. Within our international network in Montréal, there’s a vibrant circle of American expats from all regions of USA, including New York City, Los Angeles, and beyond.

As an expat from Argentina, I absolutely love wine, and I found some nice wine bars and wine tasting events here in Montréal.
