Moving to Waterloo with family, need opinion from residents
#2
I have not lived in Montreal, but I am new to Waterloo and have lived here for 3 years. I have a 2 year old.

I found this city to be very inviting, good to get around and lots of activities for all ages. There are plenty of options for day care with wide range of costs associated with it.

It may be helpful to let us know what your background/language is. If you don't feel comfortable that is alright, I find it pretty diverse here and there are several cultures and languages spoken in town and I have not observed any obvious discrimination, but maybe I am living in a dream world?

Montreal is a place unlike any other I have traveled to, so if you will forgive me, that isn't an example of to measure all others in Canada by in my opinion.

French is a real minority language here. Coming from Northern Ontario where I found French to be quite common, I feel like it exists only in principle here.

Finally, I have found the libraries offer numerous free activities for kids in your age range. Have a look at the Kitchener , Waterloo or Cambridge Public Libraries for more details.
