Why Montreal?
Montreal has the lowest cost of living of all major Canadian cities and with it, the cheapest rental market. Despite being relatively compact, Montreal is a modern, cosmopolitan city that offers all of the benefits of somewhere twice its size, but that can be explored on foot or bicycle. Throw in LOTS of green space, fantastic arts and cultural scene, great cuisine, beautiful architecture and low crime and you have an extremely liveable place to live and work.
