[Today's location: Montréal, Québec]
Montréal, Québec (45, -73). Nicely centered on the island of Montreal, but also includes suburbs of Laval and the South Shore. Extends north into the Laurentians, includes half of St-Jérôme and almost Joliette. Almost ends exactly at the Canada/US border with only a slight bit of Vermont included. The western boundary clips the edge of Ile-Perrot. The eastern boundary falls in the Eastern Townships/Centre of Québec, with Bedford, Farnham and Ste-Hyacinthe located just outside the graticule.
