Montreal, “the New Amsterdam of America”, worries the singer Richard Petit

Singer Richard Petit denounces the deplorable state of the city of Montreal, which gives the impression of having lost its Latin due to the decline of French in the city center.

The musician told on Tuesday at the microphone of QUB radio his misadventure experienced in the presence of two French friends to whom he wanted to show the charm of the Quebec metropolis.

In the space of a few streets covered on foot to reach the Bell Centre, the two Frenchmen did not seem impressed, they who thought that Montreal was French-speaking.

“During the 2000s, we felt that there was a desire to change things, but from 2011-2012, it was total regression”, supported the guest of Richard Martineau.

Mr. Petit denounces a completely dead and sad city with its clouds of pots and which no longer resembles the Montreal of before.

“We are the New Amsterdam of America,” worried the artist, who found it comical to have to step over rats that have colonized downtown Montreal.

“It looks like a city where we have abandoned all plans to make it beautiful. There is nothing charming in Montreal anymore,” asserted Petit.

But it is the decline of the French language in Montreal that seems to worry Richard Petit the most, deploring that everything happens in English.

Richard Petit also denounced on Facebook this sad observation of a city he loved so much, but, as Mario Pelchat sings, “[il] don’t love him anymore.
