After some review, I wasn't looking forward to the trip to Berri Metro station, so if my other modes of transportation fall through, then a cab it is.
Thanks all.
One reason you may find it hard to navigate with a compass is that the island is actually tilted 45 degrees. So even though we say Sherbrooke street runs East - West it actually does not. Same for North - South streets. They dont actually run North - South.
Berri Metro would be 22KM away from the Airport (in the wrong direction). Not a good plan.
To get an idea of the city go to google maps. Zoom in and move around.
