Life in Montreal
Montréal is practically Behaviour’s 351th employee!
Cradle of culture and innovation, our city offers its splendors and diversity to immigrants, travellers and long-time residents. Located near the international airport, it is accessible to the world. On the banks of the St. Lawrence, you can walk its quays and discover its art, history and architecture. Creative, humble and unique as the people who inhabit it, it is one of the cities that offer the best quality of life in the world at low cost.
Life in Montreal enjoys the perfect balance between North America and Europe, two official languages, English and French, and a multitude of communities that share their charms, their customs and their good food. Its diversity allows people to adapt easily.
Montreal even manages to follow the changing of the seasons by exploiting the best of them! Hiking on Mount Royal, adventure on the river, crowded and warm terraces, hockey game at the Bell Centre: there is something for everyone.
The heartbeat of our employees
“I love Montreal in large part to its diversity. It is possible in one day to go from Italy to China, the urban life with its many shops and buildings to the peaceful landscapes of Mount Royal and its trails. Epicureans, movie fans, artists, musicians and athletes can find their niche! Its nightlife is a hub, which resounds with sounds of all genres, from techno to hip hop and rock to jazz. Montreal is a modern city with a soul dating from 1642. These are all the reasons why I love it so much!”
Fanny Thibodeau
"In Montreal, the St. Lawrence River is a great wealth. The Lachine Rapids are a playground almost unknown locally, situated just a few minutes’ drive from downtown. I spent dozens of days playing in my kayak. Playing in the waves or rolls gives me a great feeling of freedom. I love to hear the water rumbling! Big Joe (the name of a wave, http://www.metacafe.com/watch/1315039/big_joe_lachine_montreal/) is known by almost all whitewater kayakers in the world and there are always paddlers who come from elsewhere and remind us how lucky we are to have this play spot this close to home."
