The Borough of Saint Laurent

On January 1, 2002, the Parti Québécois administration combined the city of Saint-Laurent or Ville Saint-Laurent into the city of Montreal. The pro-demerger forces lost a vote on re-establishing Saint-Laurent as a city on June 20, 2004. While 75% of eligible voters voted to demerge, this only accounted for 28.5 percent of the overall voting population, falling short of the province’s requirement of 35%.

The Reseau Express Metropolitain, which will be completed in 2023, will bring five light rail stations to the borough, three of which will replace current commuter train stations.

Reasons to Live in Saint Laurent

Saint-Laurent is a fascinating city. It has a distinct atmosphere, owing to the fact that it functions as a type of ghetto for incoming immigrants. Visitors to Montreal from all around the world wind up at either V.S.L. or Montreal North. With such a diverse range of cultures and customs, it’s no surprise that this borough is full with amazing characteristics that everybody can enjoy.

There are all sorts of restaurants

This region has a wide variety of eateries, and the greatest thing is that they are always unique and authentic.

Vietnamese, Lebanese, Indian, African, Moroccan, Japanese, Italian, Greek, and even Russian cuisine can be found right on Décarie (near Côte-Vertu metro).

Reasonable Shopping

There are a multitude of outlets to choose from, and even if it isn’t an outlet, these businesses tend to their customers. Place Vertu is amazing!

Coffee Shop culture

People sit out at coffee shops for hours, playing backgammon and cards and drinking Turkish coffee, because there aren’t many people who hang out in pubs. Tim Horton’s is always packed, no matter what time of day or night it is.
