MONTREAL --
The Quebec government is looking to the future when international tourists are back, but in the meantime it says it wants to make sure Montreal's major attractions can survive.
Back in 2019, Montreal hit an all time record with more than 11 million tourists flocking to the city. Then, the pandemic hit and that number dropped down to 1 million in 2020.
But, with provinces reopening, namely Ontario, summer is looking up.
“There's no better time to come to Montreal ... and summer is not over until the end of October this year,” Tourism Montreal President and CEO Yves Lalumiere said with a laugh.
