Montreal in a summer heatwave is when it’s at its sexiest and weirdest.

One humid night, you walk down a leafy street in the Plateau and expect to see some guy in a sweat stained t-shirt standing at the foot of some winding stairs looking up at a balcony and yelling “Stellllaaaaaah!”

I passed through Quebec City in ’78 in the midst of the Festival d’été. It was steamy hot, people were dancing in the street and love was in the air. Down chemin St-Louis came a calèche with a drunk guy in a tuxedo standing up and bowing to the crowds. Not long after, another guy came flopping down the middle of the street in flippers and a snorkel and not much else. My kind of town. I had been heading to Halifax but decided to stick around for the summer and eventually moved here for good in ’84.
