Quebec is notoriously difficult for immigrants to Canada. Highly recommend heading toward Toronto or Ottawa instead

It’s also difficult for other Canadians visiting from other providences.

Hell, it’s difficult for other Canadians when they visit us. One of my rudest interactions in the service industry was interacting with a Quebecker couple in Ontario. They were outraged that I didn’t understand French.

Try to learn French and don't shove religious beliefs in our face. That's about it.

Though our current government is trying to scapegoat immigrants for their own incompetence. I'll give you that. We're kicking them out next term however, we promise!

Yah, don't get me wrong, I'm not talking about the people, I'm talking specifically about the Quebeçois govt being super strict with immigrants they allow in. I am Quebeçois through heritage so this is not coming from any place of judgment, just how things are to get in these days sadly

Ç makes an "s" sound, like in garçon. C before o makes a "k" sound.

Given it is a city in Quebec, this goes for Montreal as well
