I didn't think a park could actually be this bad, but leave it to Six Flags to operate what I consider to be the worst theme park I have ever been to.

We are pleased to provide a new UPDATED park review for La Ronde, following another visit 5 years after this one. Check out that video here! ruclips.net/video/v5dWZRRqRrI/видео.html
40% "la ronde is not that bad"
10% "lol yes it is"
50% "POUTINE IS A MEAL"
I'm in the 10%. Perhaps people who like This park haven't been to other parks and think it's great. Before visiting many other parks I thought it was great but now I see it's terrible and it's just mediocrity
@@imnotcool2100 who's probaly not 99% Canadian?
@@imnotcool2100 that still doesn't answer the question, and okay I typed it quickly. Ironic you point that out when you write u instead of you just an FYI
Are u french
50% people speak French hurr durr
50% poutine
Everyone’s focused about the poutine and not the six flags review lmao
"Reveiw" It was a rant about canadians and the park being popular..
No its not and shutup I'm talking to u Commun
It’s the Canadians
wait....
that’s me
@@communismkilled4xmorethanh141 that would make sense if he hadn’t given good reviews about other Canadian Parks and other ones outside the US. Your park sucks ass, hold this L.
@@communismkilled4xmorethanh141 You act like he hasn’t given praise to PNE Playland or Canada’s Wonderland, or he hasn’t talked about any park outside of Canada.
Trust me as a Canadian. Not even a Quebecois, but trust me. Poutine is a meal here in Canada.
As a québécois I approve this message
im canadian too and it is a meal
Me to I am sure poutine is a meal
I went to la ronde and the poutine was way to small
poooooooooutine :)
3:15 On that day, middle schoolers had a field trip at La Ronde.
EDIT : These were all of the teens with the orange and gray shirts.
Emanuel Vaccaro worst days to go there for sure
Exactly!! Like if you go in August or September, it would even be a line

😂😂😂😂😂
u can’t judge it unless you’ve tried it
But like- poutine is amazing
I like you Taylor, but some of your complaints were quite ignorant. First of all, poutine is a Canadian staple. It's a meal. It's not just fries with cheese or bacon, it is fries, cheese curds and gravy and it is really filling. Sure, a small portion could be considered a side, but in general, it is eaten as a meal. Secondly, you can't get mad at people for speaking French and English in a bilingual province. Not everyone in the world speaks English. If you were to go to China would you be mad that they were speaking Mandarin or Cantonese? I'm sure you didn't mean to offend, but judging a park because the patrons speak their native language isn't a valid complaint.
He's just mad about Canadian's people, he sound dumb and ignorant as well.
I'm Canadian. Poutine is NOT a meal, it is a snack, and the only time it could be considered more than a meal is when there's more meat then fries. Especially considering that he got a theme park poutine, which is probably much smaller than a snack size poutine
PizzaProGaming If poutine isn't a meal, how come so many restaurants serve it as such? It is a meal. It can be both a meal and snack depending on the portion size, but it absolutely is a meal.
I'm from Quebec, and yes, poutine is considered a meal. There are amazing ones out there, such as pulled pork poutines (which is nothing like the crap they serve in La Ronde. And yeah, the comment about the language I must say was completely ignorant. Even in Ottawa, people speak French. Bienvenue au Canada mon ami!
Also this guy was most likely treated bad because he was a yank lmao
I think you really need to understand the backstory to understand this park. It hasn't always been under Six Flags management, and they haven't put all that much money or effort into the park beyond Goliath. It was the amusement park left over from Expo '67, and has been added to little by little over the years. It was never intended to be a fully fledged regional park, much less a fully-fledged Six Flags park. The hope was that Six Flags would bring it closer to that goal, but they just haven't bothered. In fact, instead they took out some classic flat rides that gave the park character and had been there for quite some time. (Think: Six Flags Great America-style flat rides and you'll know what I mean.)
The real point of the park is to be a wonderful afternoon diversion from Montreal, itself. A place to go before or after food and cultural festivals elsewhere on the mid-river islands, or to watch the summer fireworks festival. On those terms it works great, especially before Six Flags when the older classic rides were still around, and Le Monstre was still being operated as a racing coaster. Back then the park delivered because it didn't overpromise. Right now, Six Flags over promises and that's the problem. It really needs to be under better management. FWIW, It's Le Vampire because of licensing issues. It really was supposed to be Batman.
On the other hand, you were in somebody else's city in somebody else's province in somebody else's country, so complaining that you hadn't bothered to learn a word of the local language--or bothered to learn that you were actually in an incredibly bilingual city and could easily have used English with anybody you encountered--that's really on you, not on the 2 million people who live in the Montreal region. Your cultural sensitivity in this video is essentially zero.
Michael Thaddeus Doyle Exactly. I almost felt offended watching this video being a bilingual montrealer growing up WITH LaRonde...
How very true sir ...i worked there for some 14 seasons until the Six Flag ...
Michael Thaddeus Doyle Well say !!
I kinda took it as not that he was mad that other people didn't speak only english, but that having an issue with communications on top of having all the other issues added to the stress of the day. Obviously still on him to learn some french, but Idk that's just how I understood it, I could be wrong.
Wow you're totally right mate! ENFIN UN COMMENTAIRE ANGLAIS QUI SE DÉMARQUE 😁!!!!!
“There were these obnoxious lines to get on all the good rides”
Yeah, that kinda happens at amusement parks.
Have you been to Great Adventure or Dorney?
@@gianfeliciano9816 yeah there's like no line for anything at great adventure this entire season
Lol no, this "park" is absolute dogshit.
@@kevinkujo318 because they raised the price
There are only two decent parks in the entire country. And this is one. Of course its busy all summer.
im from quebec and i have to say that the lines are very long at La Ronde because it's the only one park that we have in quebec and because it's the only one , we have to appreciate it
Edit: Wow, so many likes! Thanks!
Julien Lévesque damn right
Julien Lévesque i live at 10minitutes from their and all he says it's true but I used to it cause I got their since 5yeurs old
Julien Lévesque I live in Quebec to
Julien Lévesque Same! I’m also from qc
That's true, but the way he said poutine and Montreal and La Ronde bothered me so much, I'm from quebec too btw
3:33 says he isn't giving the park a hard time and then complains that he doesn't speak French
no lol he's upset about the people being rude and stuff
@@macias7125 The French speaking crowd is a compounded problem.
Doesn't half of the parks he goes is from other countries? Also theirs a part of cananda where people speak French
Sorry mate, but being from Quebec, I can say Poutine is one hell of a meal. Most popular meal in all of Quebec actually.
Why does every non Canadian hate it
JuggerSnake because the non canadian version is made with barbecue sauce
Yeah that must be why. I guess plain brown sauce is a canadian thing as well?
E.T The Extra Terrestrial he probably didn't find it filling which may be a portion problem on the parks part
JuggerSnake nice try most people loves it
"I don't think I have ever waited so long to enter a park."
I think Busch Gardens Tampa on Spring Break is a worthy contender for longest wait.
Now imagine this spring break because iron gwazi is also opening hahaha :(
I've seen videos of the entrance line going all the way back to where Montu is. If I got to the park and I saw that line, I would leave.
I'm not sure if I'll ever go to Lake Compounce again after a 1 hour wait to enter the parking lot.
Disneys magic kingdom during Christmas is…
The worst thing at la ronde is that the poutine is 11$ and usually it’s 5$
Is it part gold? Because for 11$ it better have something precious in there
probably because the $6 more goes to laronde for building new roller coasters and probably staff payment
Everywhere I go the poutine is 10$+ and laronde HAS THE BEST POUTINE so it’s worth it
Wolfy Cake you should taste the poutine at benny&co, its the best for me🤷🏻♀️
You can get fully loaded Smoke's for like 8 bucks...or at least that was how much it was back when they still had a store in Los Angeles. I imagine they are like the McD's of Poutine, but you take what you can get in the US.
Taylor: poutine isn't a meal
Canada: hold my beer...

Did you say poutine can’t be dinner?
Hmmmmmmmmmmmm...surrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeee

Kasra .B he's never ordered a poutine from Benny rôtisserie.
jaymtl79 damn right he hasn’t
The "regular" size at ashton is like a goddamn buffet.
jaymtl79 criss que oui
Well, he's right. It is just french fries when it comes down to it.
Getting annoyed because people are speaking french in a french speaking city , wow. You must be American.
Nadia Arkison god you are annoying.
David Baines you must be American too
he wasn't annoyed that they spoke french, he was annoyed at the guests being obnoxious
@Eating food is wow most people from montreal both speak french and english
Julien Boisvert how is he supposed to know that?
"if you like dirt you'll love this park" - Taylor 2017
Six Flags: LaDirt
Well, most of the landscaping is just dirt as well
Best quote of 2017!
Seriously, stapling you on a coaster with airtime.
This is bull s**t this parks better than great escape , so not the worst and the b&m hyper is amazing in the front row your just s hatter and yes this is my home park
10:45 -- if the park made a 360° change ... It would be right back where it started. I think you meant 180°.
Yeah, that’s cringey.
This comment killed me hahaha
Yep
It's just the same as saying I'm giving 200%, mathematically it makes no sense but it's to express exaggeration.
in the time it took to make a 360 degree change he changed. so why when he's back at the start is he not changed. you are just repeating the same phrases over and over again and it's getting old.
This guy is complaining that there's mixed languages? Wtf... You're in Canada lol in a French area!!
Of all the points made in this video, THIS is the one you chose to point out?
NCN 0
All of his points were pretty retarded, so he could’ve picked any of ‘em
I signaled the video for it. It is insulting.
Kevin Thériault truee
He wasent complaining
Being from montreal, La ronde used to be really good before six flags got involved, it had more of a local fare feel to it. Once they started to remove timeless rides and replace them with remnants of rides from other parks. For example for the 2020 season we are getting the 4d Greenlantern ride which has been deemed horrible by so many. It's as if la ronde has become six flags' dumping ground for stuff that doesn't work.
well..I guess Green Lantern would have been better than nothing now :D
Enthusiasts: You’re rude
GP: Why?!
Enthusiasts: You don’t let me get airtime
This comment makes no sense to me. Why does it have 55 likes??
Ur GP
Ride ops* not gp
What’s GP
@@dhandler335 general public so anybody who's is always there doesn't really go outside there home park
Actually as someone who lives in montreal I can guarantee you that poutine is an actually lunch/ dinner
Not just as someone who lives in Montreal, more like someone who lives in Canada 😂
Yeah it is
Poutine is fries. Fries aren’t a meal. Don’t call it poutine it’s called loaded fries not poutine.
Ryan Mai wow..
So your saying that ever where else has to call it LoAdEd FrIeS
Lol yeah sure....
Well that’s what it is. The Six Flags chain is American not Canadian here in America it’s called loaded fries and it’s Better than GrAvY.
The reason why you can't go around the lake is that they're using that space to setup the bi-weekly fireworks. As you can imagine there would be certain risks to letting people anywhere near that. ;)
Then don't do the fireworks....or move them to a different place!
@@Gen-x-press this competition is one of the most famous international competition running since 35 years. Im pretty sure Six flags would be happy to stop it and put more ride instead, but seing those thousands of people gathering near the park 2 times a week from june to august, I dont believe they will cancel or relocate any time
Thanks atlesse someone knows
@@jaydenchrist6152 They can't! The bleachers for the crowd to watch the fireworks are right across from the lake, which gives a magnificent view on the fireworks and their reflection in the water. There's tons of pyrotechnics setup at ground level too so they take advantage of that reflection. It's one big installation that they just can't move anywhere else, since they're stuck on an island. If you're so inclined to ride that shitty monorail all around the park, you can do so outside of the firework season. ;)
@@atomicshroom I don't want to ride that shitty monorail because I don't want to go back to shitty laronde the park sucks the employees are rude and the coasters are boring except for vampire goliath and endor in my opinion monster is boring and the rest of the coasters are boring there flats are better then most of there coasters is that a thing in Canada because that's the issue with Canadas wonderland but the only outstanding flats in laronde is Titan and demon the park is crap now that six flags came
The fact that a Vekoma boomerang is there logo is truly tragic
2001 A Waste Of Space definitely shows the quality of the park. Going there tomorrow so I’ll see if he’s right
Yes remove it
@@Coastersguy And how was it?
@@SirDella He was exactly right. It was horrible, but also I guess alot of outside factors made it that way. I went in October and it was raining so most of the coasters were closed. Too many people to really get on any rides that were operating. Long lines for food and drinks too. I've been to seven six flags parks but La Ronde is the worst. Never going back, even for the credits.
@@Coastersguy Thanks for sharing your experience. This park (from this video only) reminds me a lot about my now defunct home park which is located in south america. It shares many of the bad stuff shown here like one train operations (expected 2 hours to ride an slc), long queue to enter the park, bad food service, and ironically, it even is built around a body of water, in a compact piece of land (is that how it's said?). It's sad because the experience could've been a lot better with relatively minor tweaks
Steps to visiting La Ronde:
1. Don't
2. Go to Canada's Wonderland
3. Don't
Dooble Well said Coaster Bot
Just because Canada's Wonderland is in Canada doesn't mean it's close, it's about 5.5-6.5 hrs away.
W Christman I know. Still go.
well the thing about canadas wonderland is it has nothing on the monster and or the vampire lol. plus the titian is better then the one at canadas wonderland lol.
LOLOL , my home park is Canada's Wonderland !
As a french Canadian, WE LEARN ENGLISH AT SCHOOL ! We can understand you. Just ask as simple it is: Can you stop your kids please... Or: Please, stop. French Canadians are not stupide and can understand at least the english basics. We fought so much back in the days for having the right to speak in french out loud in Quebec. It was almost a crime in 60's to 70's to speak french in public, french canadians were judged, cursed at... But we fought. And now, we have our rights, saying that we can speak our native tongue in public. Now we are accepted and then you juste come and say that french is one of the reasons why you don't like a freakin' theme park ? And then we still learn english at school better than you learn french at yours. Bro, sorry for going this far, but hearing you saying all those things about us make me so angry. I couldn't stay in front of my computer and hear what you say about us un this video, I had to write what was in my mind. + Poutine is a meal for us in Quebec ++The workers are amazing and well treated by their employers.
perd pas ton temps mec. pour les americain(pis les anglo du cacanada) si tu parle pas anglais té rien. Ils sont le nombril du monde... gang d'attardé mentaux
that's so rude not every person was born into an english speaking family
So I have respect for everyone. If you speak french or english, it doesn't matter. The only thing I want is the same respect from people who were born in families who speak another language. Your language doesn't mean you're good, or bad or shitty.
Anonymoose, humans are not made to be assimilated, they are made to survive. Would you like to hear it if someone says to you "Let's all assimilate everyone who speaks english !". If english is part of your culture, than french is part of ours. All we want is to defend our culture and keep it in our family as much as possible. Same thing as you want for english.
Et en passant, Darthdeschenes, je suis pas un mec. Ma photo de profil c'est des membres d'un groupe si ça t'a fait penser le contraire. C'est pas grave.
Pain Doré Tu as totalement raison!
PainDoré Totally agree... I know english people who thinks I don’t understand 1 single word in english so they try to speak french and I always need to tell them I SPEAK ENGLISH DUDE
At least the park opened on time when you went. It opened 45 minutes late when I was there.
Lucas Bradley I have never been to a park that has opened more than 10 minutes late. Usually, they open exactly on time. Forty-five minutes late is disgraceful. I wonder if that was an emergency/fluke.
yikes
StamfordBridge Most of guests seemed to treat that as normal.
Lucas Bradley Ridiculous. If it were a place with a lot of credits, and I had traveled for a one-day, one-time visit, I’d be pretty angry at losing 45 minutes - and it’s that golden hour when the park first opens but the crowds haven’t arrived yet. I’ve sometimes gotten in half a park’s credits in that first hour.
StamfordBridge It was opening day, most likely crouds were already there
Taylor: i hope it makes a 360 degree turn
Me: 360 degrees is a full circle
No one said he was smart lol
Hey. We speak English too.
dphcMMD yeah but not all canadians do fair point tho I love the canadian accent my gf is from Canada.
Canadian accent? We don't have an accent we sound the same as you Americans.
Chibi Aisling we pronounce a few words differently.
He literally said that when he complains about guests he's not talking about everyone
eagleman I actually pronounce basically everything like an American
La Ronde is not even close to my fav park but your review is way too biased against the other visitors and not really about the park itself.
it's called a hyperbole
Do you even know what hyperbole means? Holding a bias against other patrons as an excuse to diss the park is not even close.
Because the guests are part of the park.
Shawn The Park wasn't stopping any of the line jumpers and the staff was rude plus the park has almost no good rides and their best roller Coaster Goliath is just a smaller and slower version of Behemoth at Canada's Wonderland
@@kav2001c he was talking about the visitors because the park did not do anything about the visitors behavior
LaRonde is my local park. Poutine is considered a meal here in Quebec. It is still an amazing park. BTW Le Monstre had one track closed not all of it. Also I’m sorry for the experiences of the bad guests you had here. You should give it another try in a couple of years when it gets better things here. Sometimes of their operations can be slow but the Goliath and Vampire are the quickest.
i agree
littlemonster 01 I agree, same situation here. This is not the peak of Laronde’s history AND I mean the history of Laronde is pretty rich and even started in 1867!! That’s the year when Canada was created!!
littlemonster 01 and also the Monstre is the highest wooden two way rollercoaster in the world. It might not be as grand as the king da ka, but I mean it’s still cool...
littlemonster 01 true it’s mine too and it’s actually a great parc!!!
Ouiiii comment on peut dire ça de LaRonde?? C’est un classique ylala 😠🤪🤪
so it has been 2 years since this video was posted, and i think some rather large changes have been made:
-they need to improve on up keeping of the rides. (still)
-they still use the same entrance methods but it is way faster now.
-i only spotted a few problems with fellow park goers (also all teens may i add) with jumping the lines, which staff was all over and made them go to the end of the line
-the music was a reasonable volume (and i do agree it was oddly loud in 2017)
-i believe the meals have been changed to things more filling.
-it is still unaesthetic to look at (like most six flags)
-the bathrooms were slightly unhygienic but like any other public bathroom. (said both genders.)
-ques are still slow due to their loading process.
-they have better employees
-There's plenty of lost kids
Tips to take with you to La Ronde, if anyone is looking to go:
-line up to enter an hour early if you want to enter the fastest.
-line up for the rides you want to go one first when you first get in.
-scope out the park before going
-study up on French, and English (most employees speak only french with minimal English)
-security at the gates most often only speaks french (from my experience)
-don't talk about vampire's name (it is a copy of batman, but had licensing issues)
-just be a good park goer
-HELP THE LOST KIDS (this happens too much)
please keep in mind, this is my experience, and yours may be different. for reference i went on June 23rd, 2019, and they have improved since i last went in August 2017. this is not supposed to be a hate message, but instead informative, this is a note for recent park goers considering La Ronde
i would like to congratulate you on making it to the bottom, thanks for reading
ok I can understand the snack food employees not speaking English but the SECURITY?? WITH ALL EM LOST KIDS?? Thats just plain dangerous!! its the most widely spoken world language, french is not, so if a person dosent come from Quebec, chances are that persons knows at least a little English, not to mention its the second language of Quebec itself. And there wouldnt be anything done about the fact security dosent speak english, because Quebec has a grudge against english, thinks its loosing french when its totally fine, so opresses english and its speakers. vice versa with french and the rest of Canada, particularily Ontario.
@@tornadodee148 You don't need english in your daily life so if you don't practice it you will lose it eventually. Most people do know english, some are perfectly bilingual and some are so bad at it and have a very pronounced accent that you just can't understand them.
take the chill pill man
@@Boby9333 its. SECURITY. guards. it should be a standard for every employee of an EMERGENCY type of job to at least know some english. We are a billingual COUNTRY. As a SECURITY guard, the person that you are trying to help is at high risk of speaking french, but is also at a high risk to only be able to communicate with you in english, since,you know, YOU'RE STILL IN CANADA. and since your job is to assure the SECURITY of the parc, well, its kinda important to know what that person is saying if he/she is in distress. so yes, I am a bit shocked that a SECURITY guard does not speak a bit english.
@@tornadodee148 "opresses english speakers" lmfao 😂.
@@tornadodee148 just learn french, it wont kill you
Because you think when french people go to usa they speak french with us
Well , some of them yes. But eh , who cares ?
If you meet a french person and he doesnt know english, at all, in a bilingual country hes probably pretty dumb... so just leave im be
Maybe in border states or New Orleans
@@ignorant5369 No. Bilingual means you learn it in school. That is all. It's usually three years of French in most of Canada, and in this area it's likely three years of English.
@@ignorant5369 The English speakers in Canada don't speak a word of French. So does that mean they're all dumb by your standard? :P
Living in Montreal, I used to go to La Ronde ALOT when I was a kid. There was a magical ambiance and I actually felt welcomed (and I'm pretty sure it's not childhood nostalgia). All the game stalls were open, rides were rarely closed, employees and people weren't rude. Having experienced it in the last 2-3 years, I've noticed how much Six Flags just didn't give a sh*t about this amusement park. They cut on everything. Everythings looks dead or on the edge of death/closure. Seriously, they don't even clean up after themselves: there's ride corpses EVERYWHERE. I really don't know what to tell you about the people though, I noticed that too. From what I gathered and figured out, most of them are from the south shore (450) and I felt everytime I entered La Ronde I was in a jungle with a bunch of primates. It is now a sh*tfest and I'm really sorry you had to experience this once magical park (at least to me) in it's current state.
Your video hits way too close to home... except for poutine, I stand by it.
Lol @ ride corpses. I wonder if it’s opened today with how horrible the air quality is.
La Ronde needs to be la GONE.
It just needs a serious La Refurbishment.
Or Six Flags needs to La Sell it.
La Garbage
Kaiden lol
So true
Lol it’s getting green lantern
Lmao best ride of the decade
I KNOW WE'RE SO UNLUCKY WTH
god bless their souls
Six Flags is so smart. Their thought process was lets make a park experience as bad as we can and then ruin the only good thing about it (the decent coaster collection) by removing le monster and the intamin standup which is a rare credit and replace those with the worst coaster of all time!
Sending a bad coaster to a bad park
I went twice this summer and didn’t have a single problem. The maximum wait time was one hour (for the Titan and the Monster for example). A lot of nice rollercoasters took only 15 min of wait time. I think you went on a day where schools had organized events.
Advice for everyone: if you want to go, go on a Tuesday/Wednesday. The other days are pretty busy.
And for those who think Montrealers can’t talk in english, they can. Most of them fluently or at least, they’ll understand what you’re trying to say.
Have fun guys! A review should never be a final decision for you! (:
(Btw Poutine here in Quebec is definitely a meal. It’s like you can eat pizza, lasagna or poutine you know)
I have been dozens of times and I have almost never had problems like that. And by passing Coaster Studios, poutine can be a snack or a meal.
La ronde is la trash lol. I was about to go there this summer but then I relised how awful it is.
@@rexon5218 so you can call something trash without actually experiencing it. Seems logical 😒
MrShowbizguy well no I was assuming that is was bad because one of the biggest coaster enthusiasts with about 700 coaster credits sad it was terrible and the worst park ever.
@@rexon5218 Form your own opinions, wonderboy visits 1 day and calls it the worst. So now the first video that pops up while searching LaRonde is a complete burial of the park, and you won't visit because he had a rough 6 hours in an amusement park designed to amuse visitors
Lol the people speaking french totally understand and speak English. They just didn't want to speak with you.
sounds about right.
Coaster Studios If no one wants to talk to you they weren't the problem, you were.
MrGoodmanj It even says that Quebec is a French province so no they couldn't understand him
SESH Tanguay No those people were very rude
SESH Tanguay They still were the problem, because they were being rude...
You can only really enjoy the park if you live in Montreal and can go every week or as much as possible if you have a season pass
Totally agree, La Ronde is not a tourist attraction, Its a Hangout place for local teenagers
Agreed. I feel like it's just in this weird limbo of replacing old rides and not getting new ones other than the few roller coasters at the beginning of the SF purchase. I had a pass from teens to early 20s, kind of stopped going and started getting a pass a few years ago to go as a family. I noticed how many family rides have been taken away (they were old, pieces are hard to find, I get it) but never ever really replaced with anything else. Cool we got some new thrill rides, but I feel there's missing those rides for 5-9 year olds, or even for those that are slightly older but like milder rides. Those who are getting a little too old for ribambelle but not quite old enough (nor tall) for things like the pirate ship.
You can only go in the The maison rouge the day of Halloween u are supposed to get spooked it’s not opened all year around🤦♀️
It was suppose to be. Originally.
Should you visit LaRonde? No. Should you go if you have the chance? Yes. So which is it? 😂 as a side note, there were broken trains and stuff just lying around. I don’t think that’s guest friendly.
Yes, it was not a park that was appealing to the eye. As for clarifying what you should do...go for the creds, but it should not be anywhere near the top of your list of "must visit" parks. Visit if you're in the area and you got nothing to do. Just so you can go once. But don't go again after that. You won't want to.
Hey, good Halloween themeing is good. If its Halloween.
What he means is you shouldn’t make effort to go there. If you’re in the area you might as well to get the credits but you shouldn’t travel to it.
Jack Rosner GP probably be like," Omg, do they use those on the coaster!? I'm not riding that!"
i actually live in montreal so yeah this is the only park i can go too lol.
not to rant, but poutine is usually eaten as a lunch or dinner and not as a side
okay thats just dumb
Coaster Studios how is that dumb haha? That’s such a close minded thing to say
Coaster Studios Poutine is actually very caloric and fat so people eat it as a Meal.
But for the Beaver tail you’re right, it’s basically a funnel cake in another shape. And funnel cake is a snack at every six flags.
What...wow...
Coaster Studios yep
This park doesn't need that haunted house because the park is way more scarier on its own.
They're removing it for next season
Uriel Galindo It's seems as the staff realizes that since the experience of the park as a whole is way more scarier than that haunted house ever will be, so to the GP it's like a beautiful rainbow. That's how low La Ronde has gotten!
+Coaster Studios Thanks for loving my comment I made on La Ronde!
Coaster Nano Yeah, those random old trains in the middle on no where is scary enough. In fact those are probably scarier then the haunted house
James Sanders he actually feels special because he got commented. 🤣 I’m dieing 🤣
GP: "It can't be that bad."
Taylor: "Hold my beer."
Nice Thunderbird

is Canada dude they speak both languages specially in Quebec
bts is my religion yeah you are right
I know right it’s not the parks fault people speak French and English lmfao
Abby Dumas and it's mostly not the park's fault if people were impolite with him .-.
In quebec the people generally speak french and a a bit of english
A bit of english now these days English and French people are bilingual!
Canadas wonderland is the best canadian theme park in my oppinion
Navraj Dhaliwal of course it is. It’s amazing
Yup! I'm going there next week and I can't wait!!

I live in Montreal and I go to this park every year. This park is not for tourists. People do not come to Montreal to go to La Ronde, so it is predominately filled with locals. Oh, Quebec is French, so get over it! This park is crap because Six Flags doesn’t care. Yes, there are a few great rides, but it is run down and dirty. Broken rides like the Cobra and Le Pitoune are left there to rot. The employees are not pleasant either. There is also not enough employees at the front gates, and it takes forever for the baggage check. If Six Flags would hire better management, it could be a lot better. A coat of paint could help! I seriously believe Six Flags writes La Ronde off as a tax loss. This park has a great history which is lost by owners who don’t care! It’s a real shame, and considering there are no other amusements close by, we are stuck with this one. Please somebody buy this park and restore it to its glory days!
omg, yes, I walked in La Ronde and the first thing I said to my friends "this park could use a paint job"
I live in Ottawa and visit Montréal quite frequently, but I have never been to La Ronde. Montréal has many other great things to offer, and I guess it makes sense that it is more of a local park where you can even take the Métro and bus there.
I am a fan of Expo 67 and La Ronde did seem like a very fun park back then, especially in the photos of the Kennedys riding La Pitoune in suits! It is sad that they are not mainting that part of history.
"The employees are not pleasant either." Ahh the French, terrible and hostile to anyone they can pretend to assert superiority over others
This is North America and the problem is French in Quebec is used way too much .It should be English first and French should be used as a novelty language , the French complain about things going sour in Quebec ,it is due too the silly closed minded of the French .
@@Jay-vr9ir Dude, what the hell is that take ? hahahaha. I'm a big proponent of bilinguism in the province but your take is just awful.
Just went to Laronde. I went with very low expectations due to this review. I was pleasantly surprised. Low crowds, and Le Monstre is actually open now! Didn't expect to get that credit considering it's been closed since 2017, so that was nice. The meal plan worked out well for me and my group. I liked the flat ride selection as well. Titan is pretty insane. I will say though, the park needs shade for the queue lines. Much of the park looks very old and run down with overgrown weeds and old buildings that are empty. The park has potential to be very solid. Refurbish or tear down the old rides and scenery, get that Zac Spin up and going, RMC Le Monstre (unlikely), and get rid of that empty parking lot in the back beside Goliath. Throw a S&S free spin in there and maybe a dark ride, and you got a very solid park. One I'd gladly go back to.
I think that they should open an amusement park in Laval .There is so much space people are getting a bit bored with LaRonde ,It was an amazing park many years ago but with the different managements through the years it hasn't been outstanding like it once was/(Remember it once even had an Aquaparc with water slides)
I got to ride Le Monstre a few days ago and thought the park was supposed to be removing it, so I was pleasantly surprised.
Project Vipère is CANCELED!
Well sorry for being in a society where we speak two languages, man.
Shouldn't you be able to speak both languages then? Maybe not fluently but at least enough to have basic conversations.
Björn Hallström if you go to a place with a native language other than your language, respect that. Your visiting them, they’re not coming to you.
@@jonay3699 Respect it? Sure. But it's not like I expect tourists visiting Sweden to be able to speak Swedish, that's just silly. And even if they did speak a little I'd probably switch to English or Spanish since it'd be easier to hold a conversation.
The thing is I expect both partys to cooperate holding the conversation, or why even bother? E.g. if I go outside of tourist areas in Thailand I expect that people barely know any English at all so I will bring a dictionary for some words, use simple English words or just communicate non-verbally.
Visiting France was quite annoying though. Some people were very nice and welcoming, while some would straight up refuse to speak any English at all. I get annoyed at the refusal to even attempt to communicate. It's not like me saying "How much?" and pointing at an item is very hard to understand. Been traveling my whole life and France was where I had the hardest time to communicate with some people in.
In sweden everyone speaks english, even the old generation. Thats just how it works. Dont see how hard it can be.
@@5illyMe the first language in Quebec is French. so you go to Quebec you speak french if you go somewhere else in Canada then you speak English.
i went to that parc like a thousand times, it’s not as bad as he said, maybe like he went on a bad day but i always go and is never like that oh and i did the monster one u juste went on the wrong day! So like he should stop judging cuz he went only one time!!!!
La Ronde makes Darien Lake look like Cedar Point
Maintenance Shop / Darien Lake is actually La Ronde 2.0, they got :
Intamin Hyper instead of a B&M
Motocoaster instead of Wildmouse.
An Arrow looper instead of Vekoma corkscrew.
Both have a Boomerang and a Slc, a bit smoother at Darien Lake.
Both have a bad woodie.
Both have an S&S spaceshot.
Both have the same ferris wheel.
Both were abandoned by Six Flags, yet for La Ronde they don’t admit it.
You forgot Tantrum, too.
Maintenance Shop I actually enjoyed Darien Lake. Sure they ran one trains on all their coasters, including the Boomerang, but the ops were stellar and friendly too.
Don't ever compare Viper to that mess of a ride at La Wrong Viper easily ties with ride of steel.
Wait what??? No just no. Darien lake is underrated af. ROS is my number two behind toro and actually, I consider ROS almost as good as toro. Darien lake is beautiful in a majority of the park and, is a fun place to go. Darien lake is going to be gaining a ton of attention with the new owners

I'm liking this side of Taylor, go ahead and call these parks out, people are paying good money to go to these places and it shouldn't be substandard.
totally agree!
There are a bunch of narcissists and ignorant people saying that Taylor complained about people speaking a different language than him. If you actually pay attention, you would realize that he actually said was "Look, I've never been one to hate on teenagers at parks because I know not all teenagers are like that, but it certainly felt that way at La Ronde. There was no respect for personal space, they didn't care, and it doesn't help that you get a weird mix of people speaking French and English so not only are they being obnoxious but you can't tell them to please stop because they speak a different language than you." This is a direct quote from the video that cannot be disputed. Time code: 3:17.

LA Regret
Arrow Dynamix In french that's should be Le regret and in this video that's don't make sens. I propose in french Le désastre(you can traduce this)
It’s a play on the park’s name “La Ronde.” It’s a joke
Mackenzie Fritz Yes I have understand the joke and it's pretty fun but I just said that in french, the joke don't make really sens (can you said to RMC that my country need a coaster by them please)
+Furius Rider we don't work at rmc we can't just tel, them to give u one
Well said
Well, Taylor. You have to consider that you’re in another country. It’s not their fault they’re speaking French.
Tinsote I don’t think he’s mad because they were speaking French. I think he’s mad because, he wanted to use the bathroom and the people were behaving unacceptably towards him not respecting other peoples need to use the bathroom
Tinsote what do you mean it's not our fault that we speak french
and he can't tell them to stop
La ronde was one of the best park in the past because there is the best wooden coaster and a lot of flatride, it was magic, but with time with six flags, the maintenance has been neglected, Laronde ceased to receive a good ride, it doesnt follow his time, put decorations of 1$store, for exemple, the Demon, they put only a poster behind it...
Gole Zozol true
No Monster isn't the best I prefer El Toro and The Beast over monstere and canadas wonderland has better flats and wonder woman lasso of truth at six flags great adventure
Complaining about people speaking a foreign tongue when going to a foreign country is not a legitimate complaint. It further confirms how sheltered and elitist some Americans can be.
I came here for a review of the parc, like the rides and such, but instead all I get is someone wining about being a foreigner. What a terrible review.
In North America , English first , French should just be a novelty language and not be used .

@@Jay-vr9ir as a french canadian living in quebec, your comment was surely the most stupid and ignorant thing i have read in my entire life.
No... it’s a Classic of Montreal in Québec, everyone have been there and even most of tourists appreciate it... It’s the only park we’ve got too... from sixflags (That is near of our houses) Maybe this guy didn’t have a great experience at this moment because everytime I go there, I’m always excited. (I just want to say that I’m excited to whatever park I go to too! :p) His experience doesn’t mean that this park is like how HE experienced at THIS moment. So his judgement is his. It’s not because he said this that everyone has to hate... Anyways still a Classic y’all hate won’t change anything... 😉🤩
Edit: Sorry for the faults, I don’t really use appropriate words to my sentences sometimes, lol.
i only go in the evening and it's always great!
If youre excited when you go to this park then its probably the only amusement park youve ever been to
This is exactly why SixFlags will never fix or improve LaRonde: because all Quebecers go there because "it's a classic". Quebecers would even still go there if they tripled the price.
NONSENSEchannel Mhm. I go to many others parks too, but this one is just the nearest of my home. (45 mins) ...
NONSENSEchannel And by the way, there is new attraction/rides every years. In 2016, it was the « Gravitor » (for family). In 2017, it was the « Titan » (kinda extreme). And this year it is the « Tourbillon » (family). So YES, they improve the park. Next year, it might be a roller coaster, located where the « Cobra » was. 🙃
The monster had to be fixed and the cobra wasn’t safe enough. The haunted house are opened during halloween or close to Halloween. Maybe sometimes the staff can be unpleasant but the whole park isn’t and i think you mistook people going line passing for people that had a flash pass to go in front of the line. Also there is the mini rail that you can go in to travel around the park whit out walking. Yes there are some bad food options but there are plenty that are good. There are not only 2 or 3 very good attractions there is the titan the goliath the vampire the monstre the orbite the slingshot a thing that they put you in the air and swing you down and plenty more. You probably just had bad luck and came in a busy day
. if la ronde didn’t look good at this time it’s because of repairs and if you’re not bilingual it’s not our problem
Hahahahaha the review is spot on. La ronde is trailer trash of amusement parks.

La Rande is la trash lol
I was about to go this summer and I am so glad that I watched this video. I could of made a terrible mistake and went to this lump of nonsense lol 😂. Going to Cedar Point! Yea!
what kind of fast pass doesn’t have a dedicated queue line? even if they actually are using fast passes the fact that you just have to push your way through the lines is seen as crazy for almost any other park
I have to disagree with you CoasterStudios. I grew up with this park. It's my park. It's the only Six Flags in Canada and were grateful to even have one. Montreal used to have two theme parks but the other one closed a long time ago before i was even born. It's all we have. Don't like it don't go back but I am defending my park.
Jai grandi avec laronde jy allait a chaque été quand jetais petit et jadore laronde mais malheureusement il a raison. a comparer aux autre parc dattraction quil y a dans le monde laronde fait dur ! pour le prix que cest rendu. sa ne vaut meme plu la peine dy aller..
Like, bro you probably went to La Ronde on a weekend. I actually waited no more than 7 minutes for the Goliath on a sunny wednesday. Also if you wanna complain about the kids and the adult that was using the frickin' stall for too long, you should actually blame it on them instead of making the park's reputation go down. Also we're in a bilingual region so you should understand that we speak another language than English.
P.S. Le Monstre is a very 'fragile' coaster since it's made out of wood so it's super normal that they close it often to check if everything is OK. Like the roller coaster is almost a 100 years old so I suggest you just shut your mouth.
PAD FinnTastic it's called Goliath not the goliath
What about the Steel Coaster?
Thank you. His review was soo garbage. I've been to la ronde, Canada wonderland, disney when I was a kid, about 13 yrs old, and I can say that la ronde is not a bad park. It's one of the best amusement parks in canada. I've been to lalonde multiple times because I live close to Montreal, and I cant believe how wrong his review is.
Fraidoon Amiri it’s not THE best
@@ReplyGuy22345 probably not in the world, but one of the best in canada. La ronde is definitely not like anything this douche of a youtuber said.
Are you from Canada? Cause if you are you wouldn’t be saying a poutine isn’t a lunch or dinner 😂
Are you new to the Internet? Cause if you weren’t, you’d take a moment to glimpse at the comment section before posting the one hundredth comment saying the same thing.
*French-Canadian here* Poutine is actualy a whole meal here but I agree with you on the Beaver Tails! :) 7:11
THIS IS MY HOME PARK
- About the haunted house, they added it in 2015 as a new ride, but now its only open during frightfest.
- Le Monstre received new trains 3-4 years ago and never adapted. Mechanical difficulty and the structure could not support both, so no more duelling. Now even the GP knows that riding Le Monstre is a rare event... And is considered the worst ride in the park for it’s roughness.
- Next year addition is used ride they bought from a nearby indoor mall amusement park. Like a Twist a Whirl and some stuff.
- THE CAUSE OF ALL THE PROBLEMS is that the park host the international fireworks contest. So that plot of sand were they should put a path to make it a circle is actually the launch pad for the fireworks. The stands for the show also block the main midway.
- Dont forget that La Ronde has a Subway station and the trip from downtown take like 10min. Locals know that parking on the island is a mess, everybody takes public transit.
- Actually you forgot to mention that the log flume also closed this year without prior notice. So 2 SBNO for the year, 1 always closed. 3 Vekoma to avoid.
La Ronde: Come ride Goliath and ... our Giant Discovery maybe?
WHO CARES IF ITS YOUR HOME PARK ITS HIS OPINION
Was looking for the comment about the fireworks vs the circle!

I feel like a lot of people missed the point of the whole review. So many dislikes over poutine lol. Look, he said he was dissatisfied with the portion size. A cheeseburger is considered a meal in America. But if you got a small burger like a slider, you would be upset that that’s all you got. And then even more upset if you were to find out that a full size burger was NOT included on the meal plan. Meal is about portion, not the item itself in my opinion. But beyond that, his poor review what NOT centered around food. It was centered around long lines, bad aesthetics, rude employees and fellow guests, closed rides, and the ones that were open were only running one train and slowing things down further. That sounds like a horrible day if you’re spending the $60-$70 PLUS parking it takes to get into a typical Six Flags park lol. It’s $64.99 plus like $20 parking here at Six Flags St. Louis and it is considered one of the worst Six Flags. Get over yourselves, dislikers. He had a bad experience. He told you about it. Not up to you to tell him how HIS experience was.
finally someone who gets it
Absolutely beautiful
So you're saying he had a bad day? Look, he was ranting about our fellow Canadians talking French, why can't he respect the we talk in 2 languages in Canada? He needs to understand that some French people can also speak English.

OMG, Yes Six flags Parody as well
The meal plan is actually valid at Subway and McDonald. They just dont advertise it on the menu in the park like in every other six flags.
Well then that's a problem with management. I was told by someone that it wasn't valid. If that's the case, then that just makes things worse because now I was lied to by someone who clearly doesn't know the park well enough.
It doesn’t mean you were lied to, sometimes a staff member might not know. An amusement park is a big place to work and sometimes telling someone no is better than an unsure yes. Most workers are like 16-20 and have little to no training on how to answer dumb questions. It’s almost impossible to know everything about a park. If you want a correct answer ask a worker in the department you have a question. Don’t ask the guy water flowers where you meal plan works because 9/10 they don’t know anything about food and just say something to get you to go away so they can do their job. A good employee would point you in the right direction for your question, a great employee will find someone to answer your question but it’s six flags so let’s be real, good is more than anything you should expect.
Coaster Studios I feel bad for you
Not to be the bad guy in this scenario but maybe the staff member should know if it's included? The right answer is not to say "no it's not included," it's to say "I'm not 100% sure if it is included, but you could go to those vendors to check and see if it is included."
honestly although that would be the ride answer remember these employees are hired in may....and are gone before or by October

So laronde is bad because we speak French? Lollll and just because ur speaking another language doesn't mean u can't speak English. Also poutine is a meal, but when ur at an amusement park why would u want to eat a full meal anyways, unless u really want to throw up on every ride.
La Ronde isn't bad because they speak french, it just didn't add our experience as an American visiting a foreign park for the first time.
jody seat ok you're exaggerating. Montreal can be ignorant to you if you can't speak fluent French. It's not trashing cultures, that's something you need to figure out amongst yourself. You guys are responsible for yourselves, not us.
Kanadian Koaster Addict I'm exaggerating?? What in the world was I exaggerating about? ignorant like how? And Hun i never said there aren't ignorant people here. I'm just saying just because we speak French definitely doesn't mean we don't speak English. Visitors shouldn't be afraid to ask something to someone speaking French because I'm telling u the majority of Montreal is bilingual
Coaster Studios then u want them to change their language for you or something? Like lolll
jody seat I get it. But there are SOME(not all) people that are not very considerate of others and what language they speak. I'm sure you are a nice guy. But if the people that are not considerate of others and how they speak, how can you trust them. I know Montréal is filled with people that speak other languages. But when I was there, I met all French people and not very constructive. I'm sorry.
My local park is LaRonde and, I never got lined jump
Mathis Perreault Because you are a line jumper
Zombie Slaya nope lol 😂😂😂
They even have a phone number everywhere to call/text if you get line jumped or if someone smokes where they shouldn't! Never had to use it though!
I did find this video to be funny, but there were also a few issues. If a ride is closed or a train is removed, chances are that it wasn't random, but done for mechanical/safety reasons. And, really, you're complaining about people speaking French in CANADA? Dude...
It's not that they were speaking French that I was mad about, it was the attitude that came with it. And the fact that it made communication difficult.
Pterodactyl Link thats pretty racist
Mr PC over here
This review reeks of three things: entitlement, expecting everything to be catered to you specifically, and apples to oranges.
I went for the first time in my life yesterday and had an amazing time. Rides were open, lines were not too long, AND every worker I spoke with spoke both English and French.
And you went to Montréal without knowing anything about poutine, the rides and services offered at La Ronde, AND you're complaining about all the French?
No, bad review from a bad reviewer.
Absolutely!
Yeah, and he's said some racist stuff in the past as well. It doesn't surprise me one bit
I had none of these problems during my visit. Very pleasant experience
Sorry Americans, but in Canada POUTINE IS A MEAL. Period.
Cedar point has a "employee day" where lots of business's get free tickets for their employees. My friend would get those all the time but we would just go to hang out and look for change. Since it was a pain to try and rid the rides. Some of which had 4hr wait times! Are you sure you weren't there on a special free day? I would say that you're complaining too much but you did mention like 5 rides that you did not get to ride. I would demand my loonies back! What a rip off!
Awesome to know. I'll be working at Cedar Point this year. My first day is on the 14th
See I'm not sure if this is just my experience, but Cedar Point often posts the wait times as much longer than they actually are. I remember that Raptor had a "3 hour wait" but I think in reality I only had to wait an hour or so? Again, idk if it's just me but I normally have to wait longer at my local carnival than I do for Cedar Point rides.
calvinthedestroyer cedar point is a great park
Redhott Whiteboyy Cool.
You have to admit that every time you go to la ronde you meet the biggest assholes on the face of the earth
I don't think u can complain about people not speaking your language in an area where... people don't speak your language
He wasn’t complaining about them not speaking French. He was just commenting on the fact that he couldn’t speak to them.
From the looks of it, flat rides is the thing that this park does best.
Yeah it has some good flat rides, too bad Taylor didn't want to ride them.
The park has some really good attractions but it's basically impossible to ride them all because of the terrible ops and the park puts you in such a bad mood. I only got one credit at that park because all the lines were long (Goliath's line was over 3 hours at 10:30 am). I could have ridden some of the worse coasters but I was already so miserable just being at the park that I didn't want to ride painful coasters.
There is so much potential for this park
Theres also another park in canada that has way more better flats CW soooo that makes the park even worse
Seems to be canada loves flat rides as canada wonderland specialty is flat rides
This video should’ve been called “La Rant”
🤣🤣🤣🤣this inspires me to call my home theme park "La Runt" hahahahaha (im from a suburb of Montréal)
RIP I had an experience like this once at Mt. Olympus a few years ago. At least the worst day at a park is still better than the best day at school :/
Zachary Stewart thats true
Zachary Stewart yessssss
Nah I disagree with that statement. Don’t judge I’m not a Debby downer, but the worst day at a theme park would be if all the rides were closed and everyone died... the best day at school would be, well, the best day at school. 😂
One time I skipped school to go to six flags great america, it was great! There were no lines until around 4 when all of the schools ended and all of the kids started coming, also I was the only kid there for the first half of the day and the ride op for raging bull asked why I wasnt in school and I said that I dont go to school and it was funny
LMAO, When i went to Mt. Olympus the lines were insane the roller coasters were awful, minus Hades 360, Which btw is a fantastic roller coaster, but all the other roller coasters were so bumpy it hurt and the turns whipped you and the loading was extremely slow, the rides broke down like every time i got in line, like a seat belt broke on one of the roller coasters and it took them 30+ minutes to fix them. The water park as well was not great, very disappointing for a Wisconsin dells park, i only went to the lower section and it was horrible, not one slide that was "good" and made me happy. I've been to Kalahari and The Wilderness, i would highly recommend those but stay away from Mt. Olympus unless you like being disappointed. Oh yeah the Go karts were good, except for the idiot kids cutting people off and ramming into other cars...
