MONTREAL
The Good
Winning hockey team
Very affordable city
Great restaurants
Joie de vivre
Bars close later
Better looking women
Easier commute
Home of bring your own wine restaurants
Bagels and smoked meat
Better strip clubs
Architecture
Trendier
Better CFL team and stadium
Not being able to turn right on red lights (too many people would die)
Jaywalking is perfectly acceptable
Don't need garbage heaps to have ski hills
The Bad
Never-endums (constant threat of separation)
Pot holes the size of small European nations
Extreme weather
Fifth season - road construction
Higher taxes
Public strikes ever week
We're better than everyone attitude/inferiority complex
Not being able to turn right on red lights
Drivers who act like killing is legal so long as you are behind the wheel
TORONTO
The Good
Warmer weather
Lots of former Montrealers live there
Best NBA and MLB pro teams in Canada
Second-best hockey team in Ontario
Lots of jobs
Great variety of ethnic food
Streetcars
More high-end shopping
Better concerts and theatre
Street food
Pinball Clemons
LCBO's wine selection
Home of two great comedians, Mike Myers and Jim Carrey (They both left as soon as they could...).
The Bad
The "oh good it's Monday!" attitude
Traffic
Pollution
High housing costs
Needing the military to remove snow
Centre of universe (which is apparently a giant black hole) attitude
Hated by all other Canadians
Home of TSN, the Toronto Sports Network
Homeless problem in downtown
Women wear tennis shoes to work
The never-ending suburbs (is Buffalo part of Toronto yet?)

'Living in Ottawa, having lived in Toronto for a few months, and seeing it all from a west coast perspective (Vancouverite back in the day), I've been waiting for such a thread.
Toronto:
-Hiphop and Rap/Alternative music city
-hotdog stands
-rooftop patios
-trendy clothing stores (mostly expensive)
-Brass Rail
Montreal
-EDM city
-poutine stands
-second-hand smoke (on its way out)
-trendy clothing stores (mostly good deals)
-Chez Paré
In a perfect (Canadian) world, I would wake up in my Vancouver home, earn a paycheck with my Toronto job, then blow it all in Montreal's restaurants/clubs ;) |
