And this from a true bleu et blanc Torontonian: I love Montreal. I love the attitude there, from the cosmopolitan, laissez-faire atmosphere, to the way people drive. Yes believe it or not, the drivers in Montreal (in my experience) are not crazy. There seems to be an observance there of mutual respect, which is absent in Toronto. You can be flipped the finger 5 times in one block in Toronto, yet in MTL, people seem to expect and respect other driver's intentions. The culture of entitlement seems to be lacking there.
I've bunked out with friends in Ville d'Anjou, Pierrefonds, Point Claire and Ile Bizzard. All of these suburbs are within easy reach of the downtown core, at half the time of driving in from North York or Scarborough in Toronto.
Oh yes, the subterranean life: while the underground city in Montreal is smaller than in Toronto, it is more established and has less of a mall-like feeling.
I would definitely consider Montreal, especially if you want to try a new place for a while.
