Hey YALL, do you live in Montreal, or do you want to go to montreal and meet up with us cool people who now live in montreal?

Then post here with your disponibilities and eventually a PM will be made. Also if anyone is from Montreal and generally bored, maybe we can go out to a bar or something some time before I shoot myself from my self-inflicted boring hell.

For the official thing, I was thinking some time in Feb, maybe start of March?

If its at the end of February, I may be able to make it as I have that week off work. That and the Via isn't that expensive to get up there.

I should be able to make it...March is open.

Hopefully ill have my pico shit done or near done around that time so that will be less stressful. Is it still cold around that time....

I would be highly interested in stopping by, despite my americanism

I'm going there early feburary.. If anyone's free they should let me know.

*looks up where Montreal actually is*

That would be one helluva drive. May have to miss this one.

Senators>Canadiens

As I told Polux, if it's the weekend of March 21st (Easter weekend) I will 100% be there. If it's not, then it's a little more iffy because I have school.

Montreal meetups have the highest number of girls of all meetups. More than ALL meetups put together too .

As will I. Even though I'm poor as dirt I can get some unofficial loans from here and there if need be. The date is critical though.

Fingers crossed!

Bank account recoiling in horror. ;)

Oh yeah?

So the weekend of the 21st?
Neato.

Daytime activities for anyone interested: Bio-Dome. That thing KICKS ASS. Haven't been there in a decade, if anyone would want to go check that out.

Still wondering if it should be more than one day and I still need to ask my roomies if they are ok with all of it, but I'm pretty sure they will be. One of them is always gone somewhere anyways.

Poor Maus :(

oh hay guise I'm coming.

Bleh, might consider it, but it's not very likely. Consider me off until further notice.

I know its off topic, but maybe such a similar thing can be organized in Toronto? Is there a mod living in Toronto that people will pay attention to?

what's a canada?

im interested, whats the date?

I'd like to come but I don't think my Jeep could handle all the miles.
I'd need a passport to even get back in the U.S. and have no intentions of getting one soon.

Since I have a passport, I will still be able to get back into the US...that and a friend of mine is dating one of the dudes who work at the border

I'm only about an hour south of Montreal.

I'm highly interested in participating.

Yeah NegativeOne lives there and JoS, Mightypotato and Mamatequilla are like one hour away.

I live in Hamilton as well. Depending on when the Montreal meet-up is, I'd be willing to drive from Ottawa there, because I have my reading week some time in February and I always go home to Ottawa. I think it's from the 16th to the 23rd.

Oh well, timing never seems to work out too well, but I'd still like to keep trying to make it out to at least one!

If it's near Easter, I might be able to make it.

This time, I'm bringing a camera and a box of permanent markers in case Luis gets as hammered as last christmas (God, I wish I could've been in the hotel room when you woke up :P).

Count me in. Just as long as it's like a Friday night or Saturday night. Because it'll suck to have work the next day after partying lol. But sure, it'd be great to have a meet-up like that December...even better now that I have money and a girlfriend who won't hold me back from going lol.

easter weekend, LET'S DO THIS

I would come if someone picked me up from Ohio and I paid for gas.

Well I guess this invitation is not really for me, since I'm not really known here.

However, I've been living in Montreal for 10 years, and let me say it's a very nice city. It's very relax-paced (too much sometimes even), but fun at the same time. Bunch of great bars, nice downtown, a lot of different ethnies (well some people don't like it but it makes for a change) so yeah...

You are ought to enjoy.

I wish I was 5 years older so I could go to this meetup. Oh well.

I'm in for Easter weekend!

HAHAHAHA. The only cool thing about the bio-dome is the penguins....and I dunno how much Nger enjoy penguins (I think it's 20$ a ticket).

I still suggest Laser Quest because it's uber awesome. And lots, and lots of drinking. Tour of dépanneurs included (non-Quebecers always get a kick out of that). I would suggest tobogganing, but there might not be any snow by the end of March.

If lots of non-Montrealers are coming, yes - do it Friday and Saturday night. I don't know how accommodations would work out though. I don't have my own apartment.

Dude, it's for EVERYONE. There's always people we don't really know from the boards who come and it's cool. COME JOIN US O MIGHTY MONTREALER!

Seriously. who cares about hockey anymore...
Make love not war, people!

I live in Ontario, plus I'm not old enough to go to Quebec by myself, so I can't go.

It could always work that on say... friday. Those who are available can do some of the things DTG suggested. And then Saturday have an official meetup. I would be down with some hanging out for the rest of the weekend, and I'm sure other non-montrealers who are planning to come would be up for it too, if they don't know anyone else. Then Saturday night have the big blow out where everyone gets together and gets drunkkk.
