The Scotsman visits Montreal
The Scotsman has a Montreal travel feature today with a misdirecting lede paragraph about the Eastern Townships, a claim that the city thinks of itself as Canada’s New York, a misapprehension that Fairmount Bagel is in Little Italy and a mention of the “endearingly chirpy Quebecois accent.” Most of the rest is the usual script with a diversion to the Townships at the end.

Really?!? I’ll have to tell the calcium deposits in my moka pot that they don’t belong there.
/didn’t read the rest of the article after that.
