[B]If you don't speak French you will find Montreal difficult and Quebec City very difficult. More so, believe it or not, than Paris.[B]</font>
As a canuck who goes to Montreal on business frequently, that is not true. You can easily work / live / travel to Montreal and be 100% English Speaking. The city is one of the most bilingual you will find.
Quebec is a bit more difficult, if you stay in Old Quebec City, the tourist area per se, you will be finding being an anglophone. If you wander into the real city, then french is more pronounced and you will get some attitude if you do not make an attempt at speaking it. Going in the summer is a bit better than the winter as the locals are in Toursit mode.
Once you clarify Montreal or Quebec City, I will give some good hotel recommendations, as well as some sightseeing recommendations.
Cheers
