I've come to greatly appreciate the culture in Montreal.. and identify myself as a person born in Montreal, although I lived in Calgary since I was 5..
I know quite a few people born in Montreal who have established themselves in Calgary.. there is an identity and a proud background we seem to draw from..
The Quebec government actually helped my family pay to move out here.. helping my parents to give us an english education.. How's that for irony?
