After a full day of travel, I've arrived in Montreal and I'm currently feasting on room service in my hotel room. I've never been here before, and I wasn't expecting to spend much time sightseeing, but it looks like I have a good amount of time tomorrow to explore, thanks mostly to the fact that I forgot my VPN token and cannot get into my work network.
I never really thought of Canada as being too exotic, but it really does seem like another world here. The default language is French (and similarly to France, when I try to respond in French, everyone switches to English) and there is sort of a charming old-world European feel.
I was hoping to catch up on some television tonight, but I cannot find the CW or MTV. What I have discovered, however, is that some American shows are broadcast in English while others are dubbed over in French. I wonder what determines whether a show gets translated or not.

When I was in France, every single channel except their world-news channel switched over to porn at about 10:00. Seriously. It was astonishing and most unwelcome. So there are worse things than missing a night of the CW ...
Do you have Bravo? I want to slap the flowers off Kenley's head!
