I don't know about 100%, but it was VERY Montrealais (possible Ontario love here too). 2 of my friends were on it when they were in elementary school.

verdun a good place to live? Bullshit
Tokyo a good pick up place? Well I did leave with two straight off the boat polaks one night
Anglos Irish Italian....theyre all white no?

What a fucken stupid list. First of all emmanuelle chriqui should be at the top of that list she's a 10. Second gibbys is shit, nouveau st laurent should be on that list also.

And how the hell isint bal en blanc on that list

No you're right..its not only for gays though..it's also for 35 year old single french girls and 19 year old guys.

This list is interesting. Gives a good idea at what the anglo community likes, compared to french. Sometimes it's the same place, but it would be in a totally different order ...

I'll give some places in this list a try.

But hey, come on, Céline Dion in #5 spot BEFORE Karine Vanasse, Izabelle Desjardins and Caroline Néron for the most desirable woman ?? hahaha! I know we are different, but THAT much ? lol !!!

Une chance que Mirror et Voir sont là pour me dire ce qui est trendy et groovy cette été!

Gang de mouréalais urbain.

Too bad this list hasn't changed in like 4 years.. shit just gets shuffled around a bit.

I say we do a BEST OF MR...but like Tech-Boy mentioned it probably be the same names year by year just shuffled around.

Voted by the people.. as dumb as they may be, voted by the people.

This list is BS

^ Owned Twonstyle.

This list is biased towards dumbfuck scenesters and when I hit Foufounes Électriques for 2nd best pickup spot I stopped reading.

And the Plateau is a fucking overpriced dump.

When my father lived on Coloniale it was considered the ghetto. When I spent some of my childhood with my grandparents there, going back to LaSalle looked like fucking Nirvana compared to that dirty-ass area. 15 years later, all that's changed is massive jump in real-estate for no reason other than "it's the place to be!". Streets are still torn as fuck, people are still clueless and the obnoxious young bohemian crowd are more predictable than delusional morons from Laval.

I loled all lunch long about these...

Most Desirable Woman
5. Celine Dion WTF

Best Sports Personality
2. Saku Koivu WTF

Best Neighbourhood
2. NDG yeah right

1. Anglos it's more like a new majority over here...
