  • 2019-2020 SCHOOL GROUP GUIDE

  • Winter or summer, day or night, Montréal is always bustling with activity.

    Known for its many festivals, captivating arts and culture scene and abundant green spaces, Montréal is an exciting metropolis that’s both sophisticated and laid-back. Every year, it hosts a diverse array of events, exhibitions and gatherings that attract bright minds and business leaders from around the world. While masterful chefs continue to elevate the city’s reputation as a gourmet destination, creative artists and artisans draw admirers in droves to the haute couture ateliers and art galleries that line the streets. Often the best way to get to know a place is on foot: walk through any one of Montréal’s colourful and vibrant neighbourhoods and you’ll discover an abundance of markets, boutiques, restaurants and local cafés—diverse expressions of Montréal’s signature joie de vivre. The energy is palpable on the streets, in the metro and throughout the underground pedestrian network, all of which are remarkably safe and easy to navigate.

    But what about the people? Montréalers are naturally charming and typically bilingual, which means connecting with locals is easy. Maybe that’s why Montréal has earned a spot as a leading international host city. From friendly conversations to world-class dining, entertainment and events, there are a lot of reasons to love Montréal.

    Pre-European periodThe oldest trace of Aboriginal occupation in the area of Old Montréal dates back at least 4,000 years.

    Between 1000 and 1535Several First Nations inhabit the territory.

    1535While exploring the St. Lawrence River, Jacques Cartier discovers an island where cornfields border a village called Hochelaga. Members of the First Nations lead Cartier to the summit of a mountain that he names Mont Royal, later to become “Montréal.”

    1611On the island, Champlain clears a tract of land that he names “Place Royale,” site of the present-day Pointe-à-Callière Archaeology and History Complex. It is here that Montréal is founded in 1642.

    1642Paul de Chomedey, Sieur de Maisonneuve, and Jeanne Mance found Ville-Marie. However, the settlement gradually becomes known as Montréal and nearly 25 years after its founding, the colony begins to prosper as a military and trading centre.

    1701At Pointe-à-Callière, more than 30 indigenous nations sign a peace treaty—The Great Peace of Montréal—with the governor of New France, putting an end to the Franco-Amerindian wars.

    1760War rages on the continent and Montréal falls into the hands of the British. New France, with 60,000 colonists, is officially ceded to Great Britain.

    1840 to 1930Canada’s Anglophone upper-class, representing 70% of the country’s wealth at the time, moves into downtown’s Golden Square Mile, establishing cultural institutions, elegant stores, mansions and monuments that stretch from McGill University to west of the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts.

    1867Canada becomes a nation with the Dominion of Canada, uniting the British North American colonies and the Province of Canada (Ontario and Québec) through the Confederation Declaration in Charlottetown on July 1, 1867, what is now celebrated as Canada Day.

    1930sDuring the Great Depression, manufacturing output is halved and over a quarter of workers lose their jobs. Re-elected in 1930, Mayor Camillien Houde offers financial assistance to the unemployed and launches major public works, including the Montréal Botanical Garden, chalets in Mount Royal Park and Parc La Fontaine, viaducts and other infrastructure projects.

    1945The French-speaking community of Montréal starts to make its mark in the arts, sciences and commerce in a movement that will culminate in the Quiet Revolution, a transformation of Québec society throughout the 1960s. Montréal opens to the world.

    1967From April 27 to October 29, the world came to Montréal for Expo 67, the Universal and International Exhibition, which was the highlight of Canada’s Centennial celebrations in 1967. Expo 67 was considered the most successful World’s Fair of the 20th Century, with over 50 million attendees and 62 countries participating.

    1976Montréal hosts the XXI Olympiad from July 17 to August 1, with over 6,000 athletes from 92 nations. Montréal was the first, and remains the only, Canadian city to have ever hosted the Summer Olympics.

    1980sMontréal’s festival scene sees explosive growth with the founding of the Festival International de Jazz de Montréal, Just For Laughs and Les FrancoFolies.

    1992Montréal celebrates the 350th anniversary of its founding with festivities that run from May until October, leaving legacies such as the Pointe-à-Callière Museum of Archaeology and History and the Montréal Biodôme.

    2006Montréal is officially designated a UNESCO City of Design, joining the UNESCO Creative Cities Network.

    2017In 2017, Montréal celebrates its 375th anniversary, along with Canada’s 150th and Expo 67’s 50th. The City of Montréal also unveils its new coat of arms and flag, which feature the white pine, symbol of the Great Tree of Peace, to represent the First Nations peoples and the city’s indigenous roots.

    Tourist attractions

    Montréal is as decidedly trendy as it is proudly urban. The city’s downtown core, an attraction in and of itself, boasts a wealth of museums set against a backdrop of modern skyscrapers. In Old Montréal, history comes alive along the cobblestone streets lined with art galleries and boutiques. But this effervescent city is also a vast outdoor playground. Mount Royal, the majestic St. Lawrence River and the city’s countless green spaces provide for an abundance of leisure and tourist activities. Montréal’s myriad festivals and breadth of local neighbourhood attractions mirror the diversity of Montréalers themselves.

  • Montréal’s diversity of recreational activities is all about choice: stay active or simply sit back and relax. Spend an afternoon at the spa or the Casino de Montréal, take a gourmet cooking class or stroll through the Botanical Garden. Go cycling, golfing or swimming in summer, and skating, skiing or sledding in winter. Cheer for the Canadiens hockey team, the Alouettes football team or the Impact soccer team. Explore the world at the Planetarium, Ecomuseum Zoo or the Science Centre. Or go to extremes at La Ronde amusement park, SOS Labyrinth, zip-lining, surfing the rapids, rock climbing and more.

    This document cannot provide the full range of rates for each establishment since prices vary according to the number of persons, the facilities, the selected plan and the features of the units. Most prices published represent the lowest rate per unit during the off-season and the highest rate per unit during peak season. Prices published herein are indicative in nature, do not include taxes and are subject to change without prior notice.

    A federal Goods and Services Tax (GST) of 5% is charged. A Québec provincial tax (QST) of 9.975% is added as well as a special accommodation tax. This is equal to 3.5% per room-night if the visitor pays the hotel establishment directly (no market intermediary). However, it is $3.50 per room-night if the room is paid for through a market intermediary. All rates are in Canadian dollars.
