Quality of girls? Best I saw in N.America.
Ease of hooking up? Not so easy without social proof and (preferably) French language skills.
Also, steer clear of the place in winter.
Yeah. I don't want to give anyone the impression that you can just come here and win. You have to have game just like in any other top tier city. The difference with Montreal is the consistency in the level of quality and the excellent ratios. I never walked into a sausage fest the entire time I was there.
As a general rule of thumb, for a player wanting to strike gold at an outing, he should make at least 10 approaches, which is very feasible in MTL. Compare that to DC, where finding 10 approachable girls is a challenge in itself. Plus you have to contend with a sausage fest most of the time. In those environs, a chick who would otherwise be a 6 begins to behave like a 10, thanks to all of the lame and thirsty males around competing for her attention and offering her drinks.
That is a very unfavorable environment for a practitioner of game.
That being said, I did experience quite a number of flakes and rejection in MTL. This may sound weird but I actually looked forward to rejections. MTL is a place with so much action that you worry that you might be walking home with a girl who's not the best you can do that night, even if she's attractive. There's so much talent and you also have that magical hour after the clubs close down and a lot of girls are drunk and more likely DTF. I usually made my approaches earlier in the night just to get it out of my system and prepare myself for the real winners later on in the night.
That's actually how I learned game: relentlessly making approaches. Through that, I learned how girls think and how retarded so many of them are. Some of the conversations I've had and the openers that have worked are downright ridiculous, which is why I don't take girls seriously. Once I got my lifestyle down, traveled more, dressed better, my approaches increased and through that I acquired confidence, self-awareness and control. That's the key to having the right attitude towards chicks no matter your goals (LTR, SNL, harem, etc). Chicks instinctively prefer the alpha male and when you have no fear in striking up a conversation with any girl you lay your eyes on, that attitude will help keep your bitch in check should you go the LTR route.
Anyway, I digress. It will be interesting to see how MTL turns out this summer if all these RVF cats make an appearance. We could clean that place up dry, but I welcome it. If that happens, I'm confident a new location will be ready to take its place. The world is always changing.
