Montreal, the vibrant city in the province of Quebec, holds the distinction of being the second most populous city in Canada and the largest in Quebec. Originally established in 1642 as Ville-Marie, or “City of Mary,” it draws its name from the iconic Mount Royal, a hill with three peaks that served as the focal point for the early settlement. Montreal is situated on the Island of Montreal, which shares its etymological roots with the city. The island encompasses several smaller peripheral islands, with Île Bizard being the largest. Located approximately 196 km (122 mi) east of Ottawa, the national capital, and 258 km (160 mi) southwest of Quebec City, the provincial capital, Montreal holds a strategic position in the province.

As of 2021, Montreal had a population of 1,762,949, with a metropolitan population reaching 4,291,732. The city’s official language is French, spoken at home by 59.1% of the population and 69.2% in the Montreal Census Metropolitan Area. Overall, 85.7% of Montreal’s residents consider themselves fluent in French, rising to 90.2% in the metropolitan area. Montreal stands as one of the most bilingual cities in Quebec and Canada, with 58.5% of the population proficient in both English and French.

Winters in Montreal are characterized by cold, snowy, windy, and occasionally icy conditions. The average daily temperatures in January range from -10.5 to -9 °C (13.1 to 15.8 °F). While some winter days see temperatures rise above freezing, leading to occasional rainfall in January and February, snow typically covers the ground from the first or second week of December until the last week of March.

Montreal boasts the second-largest economy among Canadian cities, contributing significantly to Quebec’s GDP. In 2019, the metropolitan area accounted for CA$234.0 billion of Quebec’s total GDP of CA$425.3 billion. The city serves as a major hub for commerce, finance, industry, technology, culture, and global affairs. It is also home to the Montreal Exchange, the headquarters of which are located here. In recent years, Montreal has undergone a renaissance, reclaiming its status and emerging as a vibrant city, shedding the perception of being overshadowed by Toronto and other major Canadian urban centers.

The Port of Montreal stands as one of the world’s largest inland ports, handling an impressive 26 million tonnes of cargo annually. Montreal boasts a diverse range of industries, including aerospace, electronics, pharmaceuticals, printing, software engineering, telecommunications, textiles, apparel manufacturing, tobacco, petrochemicals, and transportation. The service sector thrives as well, encompassing civil, mechanical, and process engineering, finance, higher education, research, and development. The city held the distinction of being the fourth-largest aerospace center in North America in 2002. With its strategic location and significance as a transshipment point for various commodities such as grain, sugar, petroleum products, machinery, and consumer goods, Montreal serves as a vital railway hub in Canada. The headquarters of the Canadian National Railway are located here, while it was also the former headquarters of the Canadian Pacific Railway until 1995.
