Montreal is a French-Canadian city in the province of Quebec. It is the second largest French speaking city in the world after Paris. Jacques Cartier visited the site of what is now modern-day Quebec in 1534 when he claimed the territory of modern Canada for the French. The first French colonists to Quebec arrived in 1642 and was a French colony until 1760.
