MONTRÉAL CITY BRIEF:
Montréal is located on ile de Montréal where the St. Lawrence and Ottawa rivers meet. The island itself is approximately 30 miles long and 10 miles wide. Its most prominent landmark is Mount Royal with an elevation of approximately 764 feet. The city of Montreal takes up approximately 60 square miles of the island.
Trying to condense Montréal's history, isn't all that easy as many books have been written about the location, not to mention the fact that the city itself is loaded with adventures including the fact that it played an active role in the American Revolution. Be that as it may, when the first settlers and soldiers did arrive with Chomedey, they discovered a fur trading post had already been established by De Champlain in his earlier visit.
Montréal has long been recognized for its vibrant cultural scene. When it comes to the performing arts, the city has something for everyone. It is home to such world-renowned groups as the Montréal Symphony Orchestra, the Grands Ballets Canadiens and the Cirque du Soleil, not to mention I Musici, the Orchestre Métropolitain and the Opéra de Montréal.
A cultural hub "Joie de vivre" expresses the unique spirit and Latin ambience that permeate the fabric of Montréal. A thriving cultural centre, it is dotted by monuments, museums and world-class sports palaces hosting national and international events. Its streets, theatres and other centres for the performing arts are alive with an endless stream of festivals and artistic events attracting the best in the world. A major urban centre and one of the world's greatest cities, Montréal is the venue of choice for both pleasure and business.
