TOP 10 THINGS TO DO IN GAY MONTREAL

Montreal is at the epicenter of culture in Quebec, and since the days of the American Prohibition it has been known as a haven for North Americans seeking forbidden delights.

It's also a diverse city, with two major University campuses and filled with travelers from all over the globe who come for business and pleasure. The climate is continental, with snowy cold winters but with cool summer evenings and warm, mellow days.
