THANK YOU FOR WATCHING!!!
i so appreciate someone who is trying to speak french to me at work...from all of us french quebekers,,,thank you so much ~!!
Montreal really has changed in the past few years; it's greener, more modern and seems richer than ever.
U r right.
Hello i just wanted to tell you sir that you have done an amazing job. I am 24 years old and i have live in the best city of the world in 3 occasions. I am currently back to my country in the Caribbeans and i miss Montreal everyday that passes by. I had a free time at work and decided to look for videos of Montreal like I usually do and i found this one. Its amazing how a person who is not from Montreal sum up Montreal so well. I relive memories while i was watching it. I must say sir that unfortunately you missed to mention several places like Jean Drapeau Island, Crescent Street, the Biodome, and it would have not hurt to explain more about Mount Royal and St Laurent due to their importance to the city. However i must say this is one or the best video of Montreal i have ever seen. THANK YOU SO MUCH
You are too kind!
What a delightful, intimate, and intelligent glimpse into the heartbeat of Montreal. Thank you so much for producing a film that I will watch more than once, and definitely right before I take my first trip there next September.
I'm a Montrealer. In September things start to cool down (in both tourism and weather). For example children start school around September 1st. But I have to admit I myself take my vacation at the end of august/start of September because you get the best attraction bargains and no more kids around :)
Thank you for your lovely feedback! I was just thunderstruck by it. There have been many nice comments, but this one stands head and shoulders above the pack. Thanks again. Dave.
I watched every minute of your travelogue to my City, and saw it through your eyes Dave. Wonderful work !
+Daniel Gagnon I totally agree with you. Great job!
Thank you both so much!
It's amazing how French and North American Montreal is. Look at the butcher, he look French, speak French but when he speak English he doesn't have that French weird accent. It's amazing! I love Montreal!
+Billy Chaplin Yeah its really rare to find somebody there who isn't bilingual.
there is 3 main accents in france..the canadian accent is the 4th one...it can’t denie its origin with america and the english language..with that kind of gutural talk in everyword...just like south west people france can’t denie their singing « spanish » accent.
I think the butcher in the video actually is originally Italian, he said "Americano???" (Italians are the 3rd bigger community in Montreal).
This American has class.
He made the effort to speak French.
I’m sure he will make a lot of friends in Montréal.
Because he is not french. As the American english because they speak english? Or mexican soanish because they speak castillan.
Thanks for the film. Appreciate it. Traveled through Montreal on a train when I was thirteen. First place I saw buskers and skyscrapers. I never returned, but always wanted to.
Great city, great city and very good job! Merci beaucoup.
really enjoyed the video and the naturalness of you and your guests/friends. Since I am going for the first time (from Arizona) in the cold and freezing winter I loved seeing Montreal in this way. One thing though I missed was seeing at least one woman in your commentaries.
One of my closest friends in Montreal, to whom the film is dedicated at the end, was all lined up to give us some gender balance -- but she chickened out! :-)
I visited Montreal 2 years agò and from that time I really felt in love with this amazing city! You made a great work with this video :)
that man at the atwater market is so friendly, everytime I pass by he says '' bonjour mademoiselle!! '' and they make jokes when I'm with other friends, great guys. And that ''première moisson'' bakery? They make the best of the best! love atwater
You should tell him that he's famous now! (Jajajaja.)
Merci à Dave O'G. pour cette visite dans cette magnifique ville de Montréal.
that's a the best show in youtube I found for intruduction of Montreal. Thanks!
very nice film ! thanks a lot
Very professional documentary. I found the end a bit sad when you said you may never come back, but understand completely - life gets in the way of the best plans. By the way, I love that even though you're obviously gay you didn't make the video obsessed with that topic. What a difference 10 years makes in that community. All the best!
You should have mentioned the World Class fireworks that take place here annually in La Rinse near Old Montreal! Some of the BEST in the world!
(Wednesdays and Saturdays through July)
Great look into Montréal! Well done!!! C'est bon!
THANK YOU!
My second time viewing your travelogue -- magnifique!
Excellent and informative.
Thanks for the amazing work, Dave! Very detailed, smooth and easy to watch 🙂
Great music on the background chosen for every part of the entire movie. I loved the video and I started to love Montreal thanks to it 👍
Of every aspect of this project -- including the airfare and accommodation -- the music clearances were the most expensive part. Just the two music beds under the end titles cost me over $250.
Going to Montreal this weekend. Thanks for the great introduction to the city!
thanks for showing nice people of Montreal !
Thant intro was awesome! To any future visitors, bienvenu à Montréal!
Stumbled upon this video via your little snippet preview one. I like how it's personal and friendly. Subscribed to explore your other Montreal videos. Cheers!
Fascinating and much more in-depth than most travel guide videos. Je veux visiter Montreal!
Although shot with a terrible camera, wonderful documentary about Montreal! Merci beacoup!
I agree with the first part, at the very least. ;-)
+CinemaDemocratica Life is fun and weird as I am reading your reply that u just wrote right after getting ready to fly to Montreal in a fewnhours from Istanbul with my familly to explore the city, Quebec and Canada in general.. Thanks again! Will write back about my expressions as of June 2016 :)
Wow!..I will see this video more than once cause I lived in Montreal for 2years working with a gaming company in OldPort area. I am in Dubai now and miss the colours of Montreal city each day and definitely some day I will to move back to Montreal.
***** Exactly, I have lived in Montreal for almost 2 years in the village, I left Montreal 4 months ago and heading to Africa soon, this video just reminds me my life there, I miss Montreal already. I will move back to Montreal too.
I know that this is an old comment, but how has been the animation and gaming industry in Montreal today?
Its huge but make sure you know french. There is Ludia Games where I worked for almost 3 years and UBSoft Ea etc. Its huge and to get more info visit this site and you will get the list of companies into gaming www.igda.org/
Dave! Do more! This was so good!
Excellent tour. Thank you Jesse!
Dave, your always welcome back, cheers!
Great video. One of the most detailed reviews of Montreal on youtube. Only 1 negative thing is the poor quality of the video. I really hope you keep doing these great videos and I also hope you will use a better camera for next reviews. Thanks for posting this.
+Kasun Hapuhetti Thanks! Better technology *and* a little more attention to post production (color-balance, e.g.) will go a long way. Really nice, really encouraging comment -- cheers!
Amazing video. Thanks for posting. I hope to visit there someday.
Sensitive and wonderful vídeo..congrats
the underground city is a welcome refuge on a cold day, but the temperature change from outside makes me start sweating fast. you walk in with a winter coat on and before you know it you're stripping!
love montreal. love the bowls of cafe au lait, love the crepes, love the incredibly crispy french fries (best in the world), love the artful way people take the time to clothe themselves. and i love that i can take a day's drive from nyc and start hearing the radio stations start coming in in french when i start descending the northern slopes of the adirondacks. soon, i'm finally in a place that feels different. america has become so monotonous. montreal feels like someplace else, and that's a very good thing.
So happy to hear this you're welcome here anytime!
hello from Slovakia..
what a great documentary keep up the good work
I like the citation: The language problem in Montreal is not about Anglophones and Francophones, it's about people who speak various languages and those who don't!
please come back the city welcomes you
dont hate montreal buddy, its beautifull their, canada in general is awesome, go Canadiens
great job so informative
Heh, I live in Montreal, it's 1 AM, and I'm watching this. Glad you enjoyed your time here. Also, look up 'Il fait beau dans le metro', a hilariously creepy metro ad from the 70's.
I loved the Marche Jean Talon ,St Viateur bagels at Mile end, Le Blanquise for poutine, The Casino and of course Au Pied de Cochon my favorite restaurant, Martin is such a nice guy. With the kids the Le rONDE, botanical garden, Biodome, were cool
great documentary
great documentary of Montreal, like it.
"Each individual car in each train has giant electrical capacitors underneath that makes a very pleasing melodic chord...it didn't take long for the transit authority to figure out that they should match that same tune for the attention signal."
Allow me to clarify a few things. Only the MR-73 trains (lines orange and blue) make that sound, except for a few MR-63 trains (on the green line). And it is not every car that does this, only the motor cars (6 out of the 9 cars of every train). And it did take them long to use that sound for the doors. The MR-73 have been running since 1974, and the door chime only came a few years ago!
Dear Dave, Many congratulations for a wonderful video on Montreal !!!
Highly innovative movie made with passion and vision. Watch it learn all about Montreal diverse cosmopolitan culture, languages, history, hotels, educational institutes and lot more!!!
great city
Montre'al, a mon avis c'est le plus belle ville dans tout la monde pour moi-meme! C'est 8 annee' deja dupris mon dernier vacance la, I miss it!:)))
Hi, and thanks for your feedback! This film was shot and edited earlier this year, so the information in it -- such as it is -- should be pretty current. It looks like an old film because I shot and edited it on antiquated equipment and then didn't re-mix the color. The next one will be better. Cheers.
GOOD WORK...
I also like the line, "The church was saying, 'Shut up, do your work, and you'll get your due regards in the afterlife,' and the people went, 'No, screw that.'" :-)
Yeah that's a fake lying narrative, both sides utilize.
But it's a total made up lie that is not historical.
Please do come in the summer .
Nice Video!
Thank you for watching -- though I'm actually Dave. (Jesse was one of my interviewees -- the one with the poutine.)
Bravo! Well done.
sono nato 49 anni fa e sono tornato in italia non ci sono mai più ritornato ho tanta voglia di vedere il mio paese natio ma non ho la possibilità di andare
We should of let the French have the USA... It would be a much better place I'm 100% sure of it...
Not for your corruption hahaha
The French have short-term memories. They forget how the great USA saved their asses from Nazi occupation.
oh yea detroit...saint louis...ancient french cities..the most violents ones of america now.
@@BTVAmerica fuck do you mean ? you waited 5 years to join, at that point nazi germany was getting ass fucked by russia and would have lost without your help, easily. braindead fuck
Thank you for this wonderful video!! Please do a follow up if you do return. I too used to visit by train often when I was in nyc in the late 80’sand I often dream of returning. Best wishes Tom
It’s so different now, in 2017 from then.
Love how the guy is talking about a hospital is gonna be the future of the city. Such a Quebecois attitude.
Nick Anand i felt the same way, but he did explained how it was going to give 5,000+ people jobs so thats actually pretty good for the future in a way
Nice video , I really enjoyed it. I'm living in Colombia right now But I hope look at myself living in few years in Canada , Possibly in Toronto or Calcary. Greetings and thanks for this nice video. :D
¸Montreal, Quebec. we dont say canada. ;)
Jonathan Fortin yup... Typical....
I would love Montreal only if and when they provide escalators and ramps for physically challenged or moms with strollers.
I don't insist that everyone should speak English but it would help to remember that there are other languages on this planet
for crying out loud how great the city is.
Kickstarter campaign is now live! :-)
How is it compared to Paris or Marseille? Baton Rouge? Orange County?
Hello Montréal 😀🌷🌷🌷
FML THIS GUY'S FRENCH PRONUNCIATION!
You Can't Handle The Truth i know but so what lol
Great documental, Im planning to move to montreal soon so It was very helpfull to me, but when does this video was recorded? It seems a little old because of the quality of the video.
Ok just to put the record strait. At 28:15 when he's talking about the 3 notes we do hear in the metro these are not to match the ''attention signal''...there is no such thing in the metro. These cord come from the first 3 note we can hear in ''Symphonie for the common men'' that was played at the opening of the expo 1967 in ''Terre des Hommes'' at what is now know as ''Parc Jean-Drapeau''.
No, Poutine doesn't have pasta in it. Apologies! :-)
j"adore cette vidéo mes dommage qui ya pas un traducteur car je comprend pas l'anglais mes les images sont très belle
"Part pasta salad, part hamburger helper" ?!?!? facepalm
You got me on that one. :-) But in fairness I did say, in the comments, that poutine doesn't have pasta in it. Cheers.
CinemaDemocratica it also has nothing to do with hamburger helper
Antekdzi1 has a lot to do with hamburger helper. It's mixture of goos and don't that tastes like heaven and hell
***** i know i facepalmed as well hahaah.
+MrYnfante Ha ha ha... so good... i feed on conflict...
it is know as Merche Atwater
the day Montreal is gonna be boring, i will feel like snoop dog waking up and discovering weed has been wiped from the surface of the earth. Nothing can be compared to Montreal :)
No weed in heaven only hell.
Nice 👍🇵🇰
Wait, did he ever get to move to Montreal?? I must know. I hope he did :)!
Great video, but the language issues were glossed over.
Seems like he only stayed east of St. Laurent, which may have allowed him to gloss over.
Nick Anand East is more French, West is more English, and as you can see a lot of the people are bilingual, at least 70% of us.
Congratulations, Dave - You've managed to make Montreal look as drab as Pittsburgh, or Cleveland! I guess filming in winter doesn't help. You've somehow rendered it in Durer grays, and "Nuked" all foliage out of existence! Please tell me that it looks better than this, as I plan on being there this summer.
I lasted until roughly the 7:00 mark. O'Gorman came across as an idiot when attempting to converse with the butcher. I'm in Montreal on business often and only know a handful of French words - enough to show respect and the fact I'm not patronizing them.
11.04 did that lady disappear in thin air?
And I didn't even have to say Ala-Kazaam, either. :-)
:-)
he has tred to imitate globe trekker/lonely planet
6:09 entre 8 et 10 dollars le beefsteack? this must be a tourist price. lol
7:20 8dollars et 63 cents le steack!!! j’hallucine...et le boucher qui offre une sucette a la fin...ahah effectivement a ce prix on peux avoir une petite sucrerie. vous payer tous vos steacks a ce prix là les gars? rassurer moi. wow...8 dollars a beefsteack...how much is a cheeseburger...20 dollars?
2006?
2013
@CinemaDemocratica that is startling....it has such a retro feeling to it, like public television from the early 2000s. Such a pleasure to watch.
@@DejanOfRadic That's because I didn't know how to do anything to the video in post. :D
Thanks for the vid, very interesting.
PS: you need to show your friend at 17:30 how to hold properly a fork, and teach him some basic 101 economics lesson, so he doesn't repeat this non sense that cheap rents are the result of standing up for your rights.
I LOVE Montréal! I actually just posted a video of me exploring the Gay district if you want to check it out!
It's cold...
Devenez montréalais savegermaineandcarole
shoulda visited the west island.. the english suburbs where you don't have to speak french ;)
Mawnn tree yallll
...Was I, uh -- was I saying it wrong? Or just annoyingly? (Neither would surprise me.)
"I'm a female American"...Lol
Martin Lutaaya i laughed so much in that part, im still laughing. Its that he did say Americaine, so he literally traduced it lol
Hahahaha XD
"I am a female American" 6:44
Check out our Mont-Royal Video! ;)

Is it just me or anybody else who noticed that the guy was very biased and judgemental in his analysis, to me he sounded like a racist person who didn't liked the idea of French or Chinese people in this city!
His interview at 8.00, introduction of China town from 14.55, 17.35 and other anylysis etc etc.
I'm a little concerned with all of the positive comments on this video considering how bad this truly was. It wasn't the production or anything of the sort. It was the fact that you had so many negative things to say about Montreal and you were incorrect about them to boot. Really? You called it "Pittsburgh with subtitles." Not to mention comparing Poutine to Hamburger Helper. I mean, any self respecting Quebecois/ Montrealer should be offended at the verbage and diction from this video. And the worst part is, you really didn't even touch on the better things Montreal has to offer. Lucky for you, you could tell that the people you interviewed really love the city. Other than that, this would have been a complete and utter mess. No mention of smoked meat? No reference to the undying support for the Habs? Nothing of the various festivals? (One of your interviewees mentioned this vaguely)... If I didn't know this city the way I do, I would never visit after watching this video. I do, however, applaud you for attempting to speak french when you had the chance. Though, downtown, it's really not necessary. When you get to places like Anjou or Vaudreuil-Dorion, that's another story.
He take meat heand and after he take money-it's not good! ((
Montreal is a tough town 😂 not even remotely true
"It's not dangerous. Quite the opposite, if it comes to that. But it doesn't always stretch its arms wide for naive outsiders like me." :D
les routes sont bordées de cônes oranges en permanence, les aqueduc fuient, les égouts débordent dans le fleuve dès qu'il pleut, le pavage du réseau ressemble à une zone bombardée, les viaducs tombent, les pont sont tous patchés au point d'en être dangereux... UNE VILLE SCRAPE QUOI !!!
