A French Expat's Experience in Montréal (2025)

Hi everyone!

I'm a French expat who recently moved to Canada—specifically to Montréal—a few weeks ago. I joined expat.com to connect with other expats, ask questions, and hopefully help those who are planning to make the same move.

I'm slowly getting used to the Quebecois way of life and going through the usual paperwork (immigration, SIN, RAMQ, housing, etc.). It’s a big change, but I’m diving into this new culture with excitement—and of course, a few questions along the way. 😊

If you have any tips, good recommendations, or if you’ve also just arrived, I’d love to connect here—or even grab a coffee sometime!

Looking forward to chatting with you all.
