It boasts huge outdoor markets, streets shut off from traffic with sidewalk cafes, and fine restaurants serving food from around the world in this multi-cultural city. Montreal has a rich nightlife with something for everyone to enjoy from outdoor festivals, art galleries, performances in a variety of genres, and more.

Quebec shares maritime borders with Nunavut, Prince Edward Island, and Nova Scotia. It is Canada’s largest province by area and its second-largest administrative division.
