I just spent 2 weeks in a Toronto suburb and all I can say is I’m going to be glad to be back in Montreal. Every city will have its suburban hellscapes and healthy vibrant walkable urban fabric, but Montreal has a LOT of it and have citizens and politicians who are actively supporting and protecting it.

It seems that Montreal is slightly behind the inflationary curve compared to other major Canadian cities, but not by much. Affordable housing is as huge an issue here as everywhere else, it seems.
