Montreal Alouettes

The Montreal Alouettes are a Canadian Football League (CFL) franchise located in Montreal, Quebec. Initially founded in 1946, the “Als” have had a rollercoaster history. In 1977, they averaged 59,525 spectators per game — a league record that still stands today. They also won the Grey Cup that year in front of 68,205 at Olympic Stadium — still the most ever at a Grey Cup game. But the team fell on hard times (they were known as the Montreal Concordes from 1982 to 1986) and folded in 1987. In 1996, the Baltimore Stallions relocated to Montreal and were renamed the Alouettes. Between 2000 and 2010, the Als reached the Grey Cup an incredible eight times and won three titles. After another period in the wilderness (during which they were twice purchased by the CFL), they won their eighth Grey Cup in 2023.

Montreal Canadiens

The Montreal Canadiens are the oldest professional hockey team in the world and one of the most storied franchises in professional sports. Founded in 1909 and officially called the Club de Hockey Canadien, the team (also known as the Les Habitants, or Habs for short) is the only existing National Hockey League (NHL) franchise to have formed prior to the league’s inception in 1917. One of the NHL’s “Original Six,” it is the only team to have operated continuously throughout the league’s history. The Canadiens have won 24 Stanley Cup championships — more than any other organization — and have appeared in the Stanley Cup Finals 35 times, most recently in 2021. More than 60 Canadiens players and personnel have been inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame, including such legendary figures as Howie Morenz, Georges Vézina, Maurice “Rocket” Richard, Jacques Plante, Henri Richard, Jean Béliveau, Ken Dryden, Guy Lafleur and Patrick Roy.

Montreal Metro

The Montreal metro opened on 14 October 1966. The second Canadian subway system after Toronto’s, which opened in 1954, the Montreal metro was the first subway in North America to run on rubber tires instead of metal wheels (see Toronto Subway). Extensions to the Montreal metro were built on Montreal Island over the two decades after it opened, and then to the city of Laval, on the island of Île Jésus, during the 2000s. The system runs entirely underground, and each station has a distinct architecture and design. The metro consists of four lines running a total of 71 km and serving 68 stations. The metro is managed by the Société de transport de Montréal (STM), the city’s transit agency.

Montreal Protocol

The Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer, known simply as the Montreal Protocol, is an international environmental agreement. It regulates the consumption and production of approximately 100 man-made, ozone-depleting chemicals. The Montreal Protocol is so named because it was initially signed in Montreal on 16 September 1987. To date, the Montreal Protocol is the only United Nations treaty that every country in the world has ratified.
