Mixtral is the best of all without doubts. I use as a daily driver too and thr fact that it has loose censorship (until now) give me always great awnsers.

I am willing to even share a room, as long as I keep it cheap, so, not worrying about a room for one, right now. Didn't put the time to make the search in french, so, will look into colocataire on marketplace and search engine also. For what I have seen, people are looking for long-term roomies, so, will have to deal with this problem. Huge thanks on the phone number/companies! Was not even thinking about, but is good to have great options. For the Québec poutine... Definitely a try!!

I will be far from IGA and closer to Sami's Fruit, for sure. I was thinking to live in the suburbs. The worst places to live in Montreal is incredibly cozy for my standards.

And, yeah, will try to make friends with the punks and co. Wish they accept me with my rusty français

Thanks for the tips! Probably will try Bixi, given that the city looks bike-friendly. I was already planning to live in Laval, here in Brazil I am used to move from a city to another to do stuff. I am keeping an eye on facebook, but thanks for the tip on Kijiji. Google was only pointint me to Roomies dot ca or Uniplaces
