Montreal

place. Rustic, sheltered port on the St. Lawrence river in Canada. It has retained its French language as well as its ancient stone docks, fortifications and cultural imperatives. The residents, a contented lot basking in the largesse of Canada's complex balance of payments policy, enjoy biking, kayaking and re-living the glory days of Les Canadiens, a formerly great hockey team. Granite quarries still provide most of the employment in the city which is largely free of gangsterism and civic corruption. An interpretive centre, dedicated to the forced evacuation of the Huron, is soon to open near the remnants of the 1967 World's Fair which briefly put Montreal in the limelight.

Let's go to Dorval for the Maple Syrup festival and, if we have time, drive through Montreal.
