Montréal

Montréal is the second-largest city in Canada and the largest city in the province of Quebec. Originally called Ville-Marie ('City of Mary')
The city takes its present name from Mont-Royal, the three-headed hill at the heart of the city, whose name was also initially given to the island on which the city is located or Mont Réal as it was spelled in Middle French
Montreal is the second-largest primarily French-speaking city in the world, after Paris.

It's St Lawrence lake. It's Jacques Cartier who found this city in 1535.


It's the official motto of Quebec. It means "We remember the past and its lessons, the past and its misfortunes, the past and its glories"
