Facility Information:
Montreal’s French and English populations make it one of the largest bilingual cities in the world attracting tourists and newcomers from all over the globe, resulting in a vibrant and varied cultural life. The Montreal campus is located in the heart of downtown in a clean safe environment with a neighborhood feel, where boutiques, restaurants and services of all kinds abound. The LaSalle College building is less than a ten-minute walk from three subway stations. Students can take advantage of the services the college provides: a library, book store, restaurant, cafeteria, coffee shop and computer lab.
Montreal retains its mixed historical heritage, which is at the base of its partially European, partially North-American character, and that is striking to so many visitors. The many immigrants who have settled in Montreal in recent years add to its cosmopolitan flavour and have allowed Montreal to become what it is today. If you really want to get to know the spirit of the city, you should visit some of its neighbourhoods; like Saint Henri, Little Italy and China Town; or the Latin Quarter and the Plateau.
Even though its history is still very important, Montreal has turned to the future to become a major world player in high technology, biotechnology, aeronautics and information technology. Moreover, Montreal is gaining worldwide recognition in the fields of medicine, the arts, multimedia and architecture. What a wonderful experience it is to see Montreal from one of the many viewpoints on Mount Royal, from the tower of the Olympic Stadium, or from Jean-Drapeau Park on the Saint Lawrence River! The city has many parks and green spaces where Montrealers, and visitors alike, go to relax and enjoy the natural beauty, whatever the season.
According to the United Nations, Montreal is one of the safest cities in the world. Culture and leisure play an important role in the life of Montrealers. There are many shows and concerts throughout the year. There are also professional football and ice hockey teams that play in the major North American leagues.
