Montreal Hotels Think It's Aboot Time For You to Learn French

Hey, stupid Americans: the French-Canadian folks are so sick of you traipsing around Montreal with your silly English language (and worthless U.S. dollars and ugly Abercrombie outfits) that they are offering to teach you how to speak French.

No, seriously:

A pair of Montreal hotels have partnered with Berlitz Canada to offer French lessons to guests. Hotel Nelligan and Le Place d'Armes Hotel & Suites - part of the Antonopoulos Group of boutique hotels and restaurants - are offering a package that includes five nights' accommodation and 18 hours of private French lessons designed for tourists.

Yeah, what's up now, Aloft Montreal? Let's see you give us a nice bed to sleep in AND teach us French. Yeah, we thought so.

The package starts at $3,494 CAD for two people; reservations can be made here.

    That must be some translator. $700/night in Montreal?  Merde!

    That does include an awesome room, breakfasts, wine and cheese cocktail, lunches, as well as private language instruction by Berlitz.  Not too shabby!

    Check out the package deal under the "promotions" tab:

    <<Hey, stupid Americans>>

    Well, that's pretty offensive.

    By the way, those tourist dollars, despite the crappy exchange rate these days, still help fill the pockets and put food on the table of many a Canadian family.

    Not so silly, eh?
