This is probably my all-time favorite meme format. I just love it so much.
What about Orleans in Ontario? OR-LINZ? OR-LEANS? OR-LAY-ON? Something else?
OR-LEANS is the only version I’ve ever heard in the wild.
But then Orleans in Quebec is OR-LAY-AN

The cat’s right. Who pronounces full city names? TOR-ON-TO? No no no, T’rono.
CH’RAWWWWWWWNAHHHHH!

Cowgry
'churona

Okay so technically, Montréal is about the mountain that is in the middle of the city.
Mont-Réal (Réal meaning Royal in Catalan, actually name of the mountain being Mont-Royal) Mont = Mount Réal/Royal = Royal (found this Wikipedia article about the word which is also a name for people in Québec https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Réal_(given_name) )
Montréal is the mountain.
Montréal is also the name of the island
Montréal is also the name of a city on the island
Montréal is also the name of the CMA that surrounds the island
Montréal is also the name of a park on the mountain of Montréal that’s in the middle of the city of Montréal that’s on the island of Montréal inside the CMA of Montréal.
West Montréal can go fuck itself.
Eh Mun tun.

O-duh-wuh, Tronna, Cal-Gree,
Only narcs say Ed-mon-ton or Tor-on-to. Easy way to spot 'em.
