"Seriously everyone is hot it seems it’s ridiculous. Lived in Ottawa, Halifax, and even Toronto and it’s never been this bad. Stop being so hot and leave room for the average people!" wrote u/BigBingus72 two months back (the whole thread's pretty great).
Montreal's a great city for love, right up there with Paris, New York, Barcelona. Curling up in the cold, feeling the heat of the summer—our city's a rich backdrop for falling in love with someone, yourself, or the city.
If you read that and start thinking about everything wrong with the city, don't forget: Something or someone's mistakes, quirks and flaws are what make you fall in love with them. You love them for the good, the bad—comme ci comme ça.
