lol well good luck finding a guy on meth fistfighting an alligator on the freeway in Montreal
There’s only one and he’s booked months in advance.
Indeed there's a queue for that one alligator. Beware the croc trying to masquerade as one.
I mean you have to go to down to Hochelaga for that.
Oh don't worry I think we also have our lot of strange and/or mentally ill people.
There are select places where this more concentrated than other parts of the city. Like on Parc between des Pins and Sherbrooke, where there's a lot of homeless people in a doubtful mental state. Or park Émilie-Gamelin over the Berri station.
We even have infamous scam artists. I don't know if he's still doing it but there was a guy with a hernia that was telling a whole story a out how he's from another province, lost his stuff and needs money for the treatment, or some shit like that.
There are several posts about this guy on reddit.
