I was 5 years from being born in '67 but I spent a lot of time in Montreal while living in northern Vermont a few short years ago...from the descriptions above I wish I'd been there. Man, I miss that city! I lived so close to the border that it took about 40 minutes from my front door to St. Catherine St. We used to go up for dinner all the time. And in the summer we made a point to go to the International Fireworks Competition. We'd park across from La Ronde and watch from there. Awesome stuff!
