As for immigration, Montreal attracts large swathes of people from places that are perhaps less proportionately represented in the rest of Canada. In particular, places that were formerly French colonies, or under the French Mandate (Lebanon, Tunisia, Morocco, Algeria, Syria, Haiti, Congo, Cote d'Ivoire, etc.). Of course immigrants from these places can be found elsewhere in Canada, much like how Chinese, Filipinos and Indians can be found in Montreal. But the relative proportions are quite different.

My two cents.
