    The state of public transport in Montreal makes me so angry. This city used to be an examplar of public transit.

        Same here. Everytime I go to Montréal, I’m amazed by their transit.

          Lived in Montreal for 9 years and now live in Calgary. I weep when I think of Montreal’s transit vs. Calgary’s transit.

      I haven’t tried enough of the transit outside of Metro Van

      How would Montreal compare to transit here (for those that tried both)
