Good stuff from JUST north of the border:
If you haven’t been north to the french speaking cities of Quebec and Montreal you are missing a whole host of things to see and piles more to do. Now, if 400+ years of history weren’t enough, the Pro-Cycling circuit has two stops scheduled and they are ALL the reason you need to track down your passport and head up.
