The Canadian English Accent

Excellent stuff. I've lived in Vancouver, Montreal and Ottawa. It's perfect. That Montreal accent is unmistakable to me. And I have friends from Newfoundland and the prairies. Very clearly Canadian.

Why Flying is So Expensive

Payback says...

Ah man, that sucks. No one should have to spend extra time in Montreal.

As much as I was kind of excited about a train ride, the flight would have saved me 36x2 hours that I could spend in montreal.

Why Flying is So Expensive

jmd says...

I found truth to this video a little while ago when I priced a trip from fl to montreal. I first priced it by train as I was hoping to create a fairly cheap package. After all was said and done, the trip with a 1 night stay over in NY would have cost just under $500. For giggles I looked up flight ticket prices for the same trip, it too was just over $400 and no stay over would be needed. As much as I was kind of excited about a train ride, the flight would have saved me 36x2 hours that I could spend in montreal.

Cougar released from trap

Ashenkase says...

My Uncle used to work at the animal control facility at Mirabel International Airport North of Montreal. I visited him when I was young and he would have all manner of exotic animals at his house (parrots, a chimp, etc).

At one point someone, I kid you not, tried to smuggle in a cub Mountain Cougar. Algernon was confiscated and put into my Uncles care.

He ultimately took on ownership of Algernon. When I was just 7 years old I remember visiting him and being chased down and scratched by young Algernon. He was cute, but those claws let you know what he would grow into.

Fast forward another 7 years and my Uncle moved to Ontario close to our town. We would visit every now and then and see Algernon. At his maturity he was 15 foot from head to tail. He would live inside the house in a converted room for his needs with a huge cage door. He would spend time outside on a very long, very fortified run. To feed Algernon my Uncle would open the door to his room, close it behind him and deliver the food. My Uncle is all 5' 4" tall, but you wouldn't know it. Algernon would put his front paws up on my Uncles shoulders and you would just hear my Uncle in a slightly annoyed voice "shoo" Algernon off like he was a pesky kitten trying to jump on him for dinner.

I remember sitting at the foot of his cage door looking into his eyes. A few things I learned... never look directly into a large cats eyes and never... never turn your back to a large cat.

Algernon eventually went on to a wildlife preserve that took great care of him until end of life... although not lucky to be taken out of his habitat he sure was well kept post smuggling.
