I steal all my Montreal links from the Montreal City Weblog<\/a>, so you can always just go there and read more. But these are just the links I find of particular interest.<\/p>\n

A man named Richard Florida talks about how Montreal has become a “creative center”,<\/a> a “cutting-edge city that others would love to emulate.”<\/p>\n

Over 2000 pictures indexed under “Montreal”.<\/a> Woo, pictures!<\/p>\n

A snazzy-looking journal<\/a> from Montreal, with some slick film reviews.<\/p>\n

David Carr of the New York Times talks about Montreal’s anglo-music scene<\/a>, mentioning The Stills<\/a>, Simple Plan<\/a>, and others.<\/a> One Montrealer scoffs at the attention, saying “What is going on here will continue to go on long after the attention has gone elsewhere.” Montreal is hip with or without attention from the New York Times, thank you very much.<\/p>\n

The Hour talks about Montreal’s recent mention in Spin Magazine.<\/a> More talk of music, and how the creative scene has been molded by the political background, though it sounds like Spin may have been a bit off the mark, there.<\/p>\n

The following from Google News:<\/p>\n

A tourist trip to Montreal,<\/a>, and talk of art. Neat!<\/p>\n

CTV offers proof that telemarketers are evil.<\/a> Like we didn’t already know that. The shocker of this entire story is that people actually talk to telemarketers.<\/p>\n

Ubisoft plans to create 1000 jobs in Montreal.<\/a> Yay, video games!<\/p>\n

And thus ends, for today, my obsession with Montreal.
