It seems the going rate for tips is 18-20 percent, 20-25 percent for excellent service.  I'll be in Edmonton, Alberta in early November. I'm the two cities are close since they're both in Canada - maybe we could meet for dinner? Seriously, I've heard Montreal is a fabulous place to visit and I hope you have a grand time. From what I've gleaned, the architecture is amazing. Enjoy! | ||

Montreal in November is well off season, unless things have changed significantly since the mid '90s when I was there, you will find many things closed in the Old Town section. That is not to imply you won't have fun, just don't expect touristy stuff. | ||

Closed? Pour quoi? I'm surprised! Don't hardy Canadians travel to Montreal during the off season? | ||

Dress very warmly (long underwear even). We spent T'giving weekend in Montreal, and I was woefully underdressed. Bring snow boots. | ||

ril is right. It will be cold and probably snowy. |
