Montreal Summer Study Program in Arbitration
Why
Montreal?
Montréal, Qúebec, Canada, offers much
of the culture, history, and excitement of Europe
with modern North American comfort. From the ornate
Notre-Dame Cathedral in Old Montréal to the
museums, nightclubs, and fine restaurants. Montréal
is a major center of tourism, recreation, and bilingual
culture. The city blends its heritage, history,
and geographical location into a unique living experience.
You can visit the beautiful Botanical Gardens, hike
Mont Royal, take a chance at the Casino, or go shopping
in the vast underground mall off of St. Catherine
Street. Additionally, summer is festival season
throughout the province of Qúebec and typically
there are special activities planned every weekend.
Many students also take day-trips to the province's
capital city of Qúebec—the center of
French-Canadian culture and government.
The cost of visiting Montréal is many times less than a comparable stay in London, Paris, or Madrid. The currency exchange rate remains favorable to the U.S. dollar; one U.S. dollar can be worth from $1.15 to $1.25 or more in Canadian money. The city of Montréal is beautiful, rich in character, and well-maintained. The city is safe and people are helpful, polite and considerate. English is spoken everywhere, but there are plenty of opportunities to practice your French.
