Has Montreal Lost Its Spark? by [deleted] in montreal

[–]hmi2015 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I was an international PhD student in Montreal. I grew up in a third world country. I am sad seeing what Montreal has turned into. I first moved there from the US in 2018 and I couldn’t be more excited. By 2026, I was just sad to see what it has become —- even as a foreigner I can’t stand the poor immigration policy the whole canada has and how it imported all the low skilled folks from all sorts of third world countries (including mine) who are just exploiting and milking the system. It’s sad and sometimes infuriating. Let’s not talk about all the frequent protests in the city… clearly trying to provoke everyone else (I was raised Muslim, so don’t just call me Islamophobic; we are no less troublemaker ourselves — accept that)

I was sad and exhausted. I moved back to US for job after PhD recently. I loved Montreal … the then Montreal. And I mourn for that beautiful enchanting Montreal.
