Still looking for one Thu/Sat extra ticket if anything comes up! Can pick them up on site too. Thanks!

Food and drinks and cafes recommendations: Olivia Smart, Kaitlin Hawayek, and Jackie Wong are all posting pretty solid suggestions on Instagram and Twitter for places around main and practice rink. I would describe most of them as in the mid range price, casual (i.e. not fine dining) but still...

Good point, Bonaventure is probably less hassle than Lucien L'Allier. I don't go downtown much and I avoid like hell the underground-city system connecting the stations unless in extreme weather, there's too many floors and shops and different exits and I still get lost after years of living...

In Verdun, I also highly recommend a walk on Wellington street (in both directions from metro de L'Eglise), there's an embarrassment of riches in terms or restaurants from all cuisines, cafes, boulageries, bookstores, local markets, etc, I can't even start naming them. If you have time and the...

For the metro to the Verdun auditorium, from the Bell centre or around there, either metro station Bonaventure or Lucien L'Allier, it's the orange metro direction Cote Vertu. The change in Lionel Groulx to the green line is super easy, it's the opposite tracks on the same level, literally 20m in...

There won't be any snow for snow activities left on Mt Royal at this time, perhaps just a bit leftovers under the shaded areas or the sides of the road but that's it. For the "shuttle" bus, it's actually a regular bus service from the STM circuit (society of transport in montreal) that looks...

For anyone interested in skating, the weather has sadly be so warm or variable this winter that I managed to skate outdoor on natural ice exactly once. Even the Lac Aux Castors on top of Mount Royal is closed. The artificial outdoor rink at L'esplanade Tranquille near Place des Arts should still...

The bell center and the verdun arena are both super easy to reach by metro (Verdun looks far on the map but in reality is probably 15-20 min max to the arena from the bell centre with a switch at lionel groulx to the green line exactly opposite of where you exit the orange metro). Buses are...

About currency, I would assume that usual foreign credit cards (Visa, Mastercard etc) work on ATMs and it's probably cheaper to directly wd money if your bank doesn't apply large extra fees. I can't remember the last time I paid in cash here in Montreal, I think most places accept both credit...

With one week to go, ask away if you have any last minute questions here or by PM, I'm a Montreal local! Also I'm looking for 1 extra Saturday ticket and possibly 1 Thursday!

Hello, looking for 1 ticket for the Saturday events, and possibly 1 for Thursday (the latter if it's a good offer). Thanks!

I interviewed Laurence and Nikolaj two years ago (Feb 2019) Link, and this was the status of Nikolaj's citizenship: "Nikolaj, how far along are you in the process of obtaining your citizenship? NS: I got my permanent residency already last year in April. Usually it’s three years from that to...

Reed/Ambrulevicius are moving to iAM in Montreal Insta post

Super happy for Marjo and Zack to make home Worlds in Mtl!:cheer2: Also don't forget Rizzo for Euro podium, may the mythical quads come back at the right time :kickass: And finally, it seems I'll have to go throught the whole Euro Ladies FS as @Jeschke is visiting for our viewing party...

I may go to GPF depending on accreditation. @Hanna will be there, what about you @Ka3sha ? On my way to see @Jeschke today, shockingly for no skating reasons (but mulled wine reasons :nopryde:)
