I think they call it "Paris of North America" mainly because it's the second largest French-speaking city in the western world after Paris.

I think Abidjan (Ivory Coast) and Douala (Cameroon) are larger French-speaking cities than Montreal.

These are one of the threads you can't really have a list for. There are just WAY too many cities that have been left off...


And last I checked, Honolulu, Albuquerque, and SLC weren't exactly LARGE.

This is another example of a ridiculous thread topic! It essentially asks us to select our favorite big city from your list of favorite random cities. Huh?? What does this prove?
It's a lot like me saying, "Here's a list of my favorite fruits: mangos, pears, pineapple, and bananas. Now, vote for your favorite fruit... but only from my list."
