Bonjour! I would love to learn about Montreal. I have always wanted to go there. Can you give me some interesting information? 
 Bonjour! It sounds as if you already know that Montreal is the second-largest French speaking city in the entire World!! An interesting fact about Montreal is that it hosted the 1976 Olympics. 
 Mon dieu! I was five years old! I did not know that! I promise I won't keep throwing out the French terms. What can you tell me about the history of Montreal? is it super old or what? 
 I am impressed with your French! Based on your age, I would most definitely consider Montreal super old! In 1639, Jerome Le Royer de La Dauversiere obtained the Seigneurial title to the Islands of Montreal in the name of the Notre Dame Society of Montreal. This was to establish a Roman Catholic mission to evangelize the natives there. 
 Interesting! Are there more islands that are part of Montreal? 
 Nope! Your french got me all twisted. The correct title is Island of Montreal. Montreal is built on an (one) island sitting in the Saint Lawrence River. At the center of the island sits a mountain called Mount Royal. My apologies for the confusion. 
 Oh it's tout bien! Ha ha there i go again. High school French. Anyway, I would love to go there. In the summer, of course. What about the demographics of Montreal? 
 Yes, you should take a trip next summer! How awesome would that be? The great thing noted by Statistics Canada, is in terms of additional languages spoken, knowledge of both French and English is possessed by most residents. It will give you a good opportunity to practice those past high school skills but be covered if you can not remember. 
 Absolutely! 
 Also, I can share that in 2016 the Canadian Census had the population at 1,704,694 people. That 's a lot of people to practice your French with! 
 You are right about that! Thank you for all the info. I will definitely look into taking a trip there. Maybe I will run into Kathy Reichs, an author who has a character based there and in the US! 
 I hope you do. Take care and Bon Voyage!
