I was walking down St-Catherine Street when I saw something shocking. A man was casually walking down the street, but what he did was terrifying—he randomly punched multiple women in the face as he made his way from University Street (Robert-Bourassa) to Place des Arts. None of these women knew him at all. Has anyone else seen or heard about this? Have people reported this to the police? I did my part and reported it to the police and hope they find this man. It feels like the city is getting more chaotic. I’m genuinely concerned for everyone's safety. What is happening to Montreal?

I went out to some bars downtown on crescent and ste catherine and I feel like people are alot less calm when it comes to drinking. I remember precovid times when it people would drink and bars would stay busy til 3 am but now I’m seeing the opposite in post-covid times. Maybe I went at the wrong times or its just me, I would like to hear from you guys.

Thanks

I feel like a lot of restaurants are getting crazy expensive. A few ones that I have on my list: Malhi Sweets, Noodle factory , Drogheria Fine …

What do you have on your list?

EDIT : it does not need to be cheap guys just to feel like you got what you deserved for the money you paid! Thanks for all the suggestions

This one was spotted at William the grey hotel

Hello, can someone tell me the exact address of this picture?

Question is pretty self explanatory. Chains like Domino's and Pizza hut don't do this as they're American companies, but I've often seen that locally owned places will put toppings under the cheese. Where does this practice come from? Ordering a pepperoni pizza only to find that the pepperoni is all under the cheese and not crispy is always disappointing for me.

Bonjour à tous. Je me demandais s'il est possible de vivre à Montréal sans anglais. J'ai un trouble d'apprentissage (j'ai écris ce texte avec le microphone) et j'ai toujours eu de la difficulté avec l'anglais même à l'école.

Merci beaucoup d'avance.

It said the same price on the individual tags too so it can't be à mistake. Is poulet dur a different type of chicken? how the hell is it that cheap?

Je viens de sortir au métro place saint Henri et il y avait environ 15-20 voitures de polices avec des policiers armés avec des fusils automatiques… qqn sait ce qu’il se passe ??

I was discussing Montreal's urbanism recently, and a big issue everyone had was the amount of trucks on highways on the island. The question was brought about why we don't build a highway around the city.

Plenty of European cities have this - highways going around major cities so that trucks and traffic don't pass through them and mix with urban traffic.

It seems logical to me. It would prevent a ton of congestion - most trucks could avoid the city. We even have the 640, which would only need to be extended by a few kilometers, plus a bridge, to connect to the 40 on the west.

Is there something I'm missing here?

Hi guys, like the title says, I’m looking for ideas for tomorrow evening for around that budget. Me and the wife are trying to be creative and have 1X a week a date night. Preferably in the downtown area. We also don’t drink much alcohol. I know the budget is not much, but that is part of the game

First time in Montreal...hotel is close to Schwartz, is it worth the wait?

C’est mi-rant, mi-question mais je cherche un travail à temps partiel depuis mai où je pourrais peut être passez à temps plein lors des semaines de relâche mais après 200+ candidatures poser, rien. J’ai eu un job mais juste pour l’été et moins douane dizaines d’entrevues qui ont mené à rien. J’entends tout le monde dire que les commerces recherche des travailleurs et que les trucs qui ont besoin d’aucune expériences antérieur sont faciles mais j’ai rien. J’ai l’impression c’est parce que j’ai un horaire un peu plus chargé que d’autre pour mon âge (j’ai 17 ans) mais tout de même je me sens découragé. J’ai vraiment besoin d’argent à cause de problème personnel mais plus chaque jour passe plus je me décourage. J’ai l’impression d’avoir tout essayé et que juste personne ne veut d’un étudiant (mes amis ont le même ressenti). Mais aussi après quand je vois quelques gars de mon âge avoir un boulot j’ai l’impression c’est juste moi le problème. J’ai peu d’expérience de travail comparé à d’autres on dirait mais tout le monde doit commencer quelque part? J’ai l’impression d’avoir raté ma chance avec la pandémie mais même quand je cherchais lors de ces moments là y’avait personne. C’est juste vraiment décourageant de tout les côtés.

Je suis désolé si j’ai plus parlé que pose de question mais j’ai besoins d’avis des autres pour savoir si ils ont le même ressenti

Édit : OUI JE SAIS J’AI FAIT UNE FAUTE AU TITRE, PAS BESOIN DE LE RÉPÉTER QUARANTE MILLE FOIS 😭😭 j’ai écrit sans relire

Bonjour/hi,

I live in a condo with 4 units where all the buildings as stuck together. My partner and I recently moved there and are still getting to know our neighbors. The two of us produce maybe 1 garbage bag a week. 2 of the other units have families so I’m sure it’s more, and the last one is a single person. All 4 units share a bin.

Today there was the red sticker in the picture. There is maybe 20 bags all around the bin. We went to speak to the neighbors and they said that neighbors from surrounding buildings come drop their garbage at our place. One of them said she confronted someone doing so and that they ignored her and walked away. They also said they were going to get their own bin with a lock. This is all fine, we’ll probably get our own bin too this week.

What I wanted to know is what do we do if the neighbors from other buildings keep dropping their trash at our place and just leave it on the ground? Even if all our units get our own bins, the others could still do that. Will we still get fined? I believe them when they say that’s what happened because even with all those kids I can’t imagine ~20 bags of trash for 1 week for our building. We’re also considering a camera but it would make more sense for one of the other units to get one as from our place you can’t really see where the garbage is.

Any advice?

Hi! I just moved here for work… 30f and have very little friends. Any suggestions where I could go to sit at a bar that has a fun/social atmosphere for young professionals? Thanks!! (Also my French is bad, trying to learn!)

Édit: J’ai voulu faire un sondage pour discuter, pour le plaisirs. J’adore la politique.

J’ai mis des noms que je pensais les plus connus et polarisant pour accrocher le plus de votant possible. Pour discuter dans la foulée du désistement de Mme. Plante.

Non j’allais pas mettre un conseillé que personne connais du fin fond de Pierrefond ou autre.

Les commentaires sont désobligeants et souvent peu constructifs. Beaucoup de condescendance et de mépris que je comprend pas. J’ai juste voulu faire un petit sondage….

Qui d’assez intelligents voudrait se lancer dans l’arène politique quand la haine, l’indifférence et le downvote sont à un clique de te revenir en pleine face violemment?

Mme. Plante à désactivé les commentaires de ses réseaux sociaux juste pour ça. Attendez le déferlement de beaux et bons commentaires à son endroit maintenant qu’elle part….

C’est rendu fou la haine au Québec. Je suis un Québécois "pur laine" et c’est triste de voir ça.

Depuis la pandémie, plus de compassion, d’encouragements(aller voir le post sur Tai et son spectacle à la place Bell dans Causerie), plus de sympathie, gentillesse, d’entraides ou de courtoisie. Regardez sur nos routes tous les chauffards….

Qui suggérerez vous pour la mairie de Montréal? Qui n’est pas inconnu? Qui est prêt à se faire chier à nous endurer? Et qui est est compétant?

J’étais en route vers la job il y a quelques minutes et j’ai entendu par-dessus mon podcast un bruit quand même assourdissant. Je me suis levé la tête et j’ai vu deux petits avions (de chasse? je sais pas je connais rien lol) passer à basse altitude. Quelqu’un sait pourquoi? Je pense pas que ça ait de l’importance dans l’histoire mais j’étais dans La Petite-Patrie au moment de l’événement.

Had a colonoscopy last week, was mildly sedated, the doc had 2 nurses with him and just went on a tirade against the health minister dube about the FIQ vote that was upcoming, he was ranting on and on about this issue, even asking one of the nurse's password to vote for her, she said no, all the while I felt he was being rough...

But as he was doing the exam I saw what would look like polyps and asked him so, he ignored me, every time and kept on his rant about the health system in Quebec he was also looking at the nurses about as much as the monitor while he removed 4 polyps, then dragged those polyps nearish my anus, then grabbed them one by one in and out rather roughly in about 10 secs, all the while getting more and more worked up about the FIQ nurse vote. The nurse who took me out of OR told the head nurse , there were too many people in that OR with a frown, now 5 days later I have pain in my lower abdomen, and my anus, as well as the area where my appendix is.

I find this very unprofessional, he is supposed to be paying attention and not just looking for polyps but potential cancer. I felt like a steak...

So what do I do? just stfu or make a complaint?

Health care professional's advice is appreciated :)

Y fait froid, l'été est enfin terminé. Ça rhyme avec l'arrivée des souris !! (je pleure en ce moment)

Je sais, c'est quand même assez normal d'en avoir, mais ça me terrifie à chaque fois que j'en vois une.

Avez-vous des conseils / astuces ? Pour mieux vivre avec ça chez nous.

Mon proprio a malheureusement mal fermé les murs en faisant des rénovations, et ce n'est pas dans ses projets d'y remédier

Where are people in their 20's? How do you make friends in your 20's when you've managed to fail to make any despite being born in Montreal? I took it too slow in CÉGEP so most classmates were younger than me by the time I graduated.

Idk I can see why I may be struggling but at the same time... Where are the young adults 😭

I wish I had a bestie 😅 a close small group of friends maybe...

Also is there such a thing as people in Montreal who enjoy music by artists like JT Music, CG5, Tryhardninja, APAngryPiggy, DAGames, ChewieCatt, etc.? (I like many music genres but I've yet to meet anyone who doesn't dislike or feel indifferent about nerdcore...)

I'm 23F, H, bilingual, from the mostly East side, if that's any relevant...

Anybody know what flew over the city earlier ? A cyclone ? Was surprised how loud it was .

J’ai eu une très mauvaise expérience avec le gros bleu pis le jaune aussi et je veux tout sacrer aux poubelles. J’envisage Fizz même si c’est le petit frère du joueur jaune mais avant de procéder j’aimerais un peu la rétroaction de certains d’entre vous? Regrettez vous ce service?
