Transportation Montreal offers a range of transportation options including bus and taxi services.
Although Montréal is bilingual, it is a multicultural city with a throng of visible ethnic communities. The two largest--Italian and Jewish--have been present in Montréal since the 19th century and have more successfully retained their identities than other groups that gradually merged into one of the great "solitudes." Recent immigration again has changed the face of the city as newcomers from Asia, Africa, the Antilles and the Near East make homes in Montréal. Deep loyalty to its Gallic roots gives Montréal its individuality as a Canadian city. But it is not merely sidewalk cafes and croissants that have made the city très cosmopolitan.
