>
>Montréal: Life à la Montréal, Warm & Welcoming
>http://www.aace.org/conf/Cities/Montreal
>
>What do you get when you combine the smarts of 
>North America with the laid-back insouciance of 
>Europe? 350 years of progress with the friendly 
>nature of a village? High-tech and high style? 
>You get the city of Montréal - an unpretentious 
>knockout that has no idea of the effect she has 
>on people. Why? Because the driving force behind 
>this unique hybrid is the Montréal mantra: Get 
>out there and celebrate life. And, it must be 
>said, life lived à la Montréal is about as sweet 
>as it gets. From her festivals (Montréal is the 
>undisputed festival capital of the world), to 
>her incredible food, to her legendary nightlife, 
>this city has a true talent for making the very 
>most and best out of life's little pleasures.
>
>Located about an hour from the U.S. border in 
>south-western Québec, Montréal is the largest 
>French-speaking city in North America. This is 
>not a sprawling urban centre by North American 
>standards, and that's part of Montréal's charm. 
>No "donut" town, there is no 6 pm exodus to 
>parts unknown. Montrealers live, work and play 
>in a compact downtown core. Safe, clean and 
>green, this city is good to her citizens and 
>guests alike, who lunch and lounge on terraces 
>for nice, long sessions of people-watching (a 
>sacred Montréal ritual), stroll, hike or bike on 
>mount Royal (a natural haven right downtown), 
>take in the sights and sounds of Old Montréal 
>and the Old Port. This is a place that 
>understands following one's fancy.
>
>Montréal has an international reputation for 
>creative excellence, not just in the traditional 
>arts, but in cutting-edge technology, 
>multimedia, sound and film production.
>
>Perhaps it's the Latin blood. The passion 
>Montrealers bring to whatever they do is felt 
>everywhere; certainly in international tours de 
>force like Cirque du Soleil, La La La Human 
>Steps, Céline Dion. But you can feel it too as 
>your chef comes to ask you truly, sincerely, how 
>you liked your crème brûlée, and to raise a 
>glass to your health. It's warm, it's relaxing, 
>it's fascinating, it's thrilling. It's life à la 
>Montréal.
>
>When summer beckons in Montréal, everyone and 
>everything heeds her call. The city's many parks 
>and squares are decked out in flowerbeds, 
>fountains, greenery and cool stretches of water. 
>Impromptu gatherings of friends and family 
>animate the colourful balconies, beginning at 
>Happy Hour or "5 à 7" and continuing well into 
>the warm nights. The entire island moves to the 
>traffic-stopping beat of street festivals or 
>fairs and everyone - locals and visitors - takes 
>part in the scene on foot, bikes or blades.
>
>Montréal is an ideal location for ED-MEDIA 2005, 
>June 27-July 2, 2005. We look forward to seeing 
>you there!
