Hey i live in Mtl.. We always rank among the top cities for women! In the summer its 3 months none-stop of festivals and bars are All over the place.
Our women come from mostly Asia/European/American mix. Also our girls are pretty direct compared to the average gall (some might look you in the eyes and tell you To bang Her)
We got good strip club and 18 legal drinking/smoking week age.
Also Montréal has 5 universities within 1 miles / 2 km from each other.... Like 200 000 students and half of them from outside the province(state). Downtown is where most stuff happens, and all the universities are downtown. You do get more foreigners when you do out in certain areas, so better for the lay game.
You want to see locals ? Daygame / parks and some bars at night (we Montrealer have our classics)
All the night life is street-themed based and walkable (like the guy mentions). The club night life does seem to be disappearing, the nightlife targeting 18–21-year-old dance nightclub.
If you are looking for a wine bar/lounge/beer bar, you will be served and great selection.
It's a great City for a single, students, artists. Also, only nightclub charge cover fees (i haven't paid one cover fee in like 15 years).
It's a good article and quite honest, he just didn't go to the right spot and the right time... (cause Montreal is time-sensitive, Thursday-Friday-Saturday... Is your night lifetime).
Anyway if you try the nightlife of Canada, you'll notice Montréal is heaven compared to the rest of the country.
If you can pick up a Montréal girl, you can pick up any girl (my opinion, usa Women are so easy)
Montréal Women give more challenges and direct talk, they are also more sexually expressive and not scared of using their charms.. They are quite straight forward. A Montréal Women I would say might be harder to date but they will one-night stand you more easily (or fast).
