That said, with 3.8 million people in the area, crime does exist so make sure you keep your wits about you for pickpockets. In case of an emergency, an emergency phone call can be made free of charge from any phone including public pay phones at the following number: 911. Language Canada’s national languages are English and French. Quebec is the only Canadian province that has a predominantly French-speaking population, and the only one to have French as its sole provincial official language. Electrical power points The voltage used throughout Canada is uniformly 110 volts, A.C. and 60 Hertz. Canadian power outlets accept plugs with 2 flat pins. The configuration is the same as that used by American 2-flat plugs and plugs are compatible. Please note that there are no columnar-shaped plugs or 3-pin plugs used in Canada. It is advisable to purchase a plug adapter beforehand for plugs that feature other configurations. Weather Canada has four distinct seasons. Summer (June – August) brings warmer temperatures, with average highs of 24O C, but low humidity levels. Warmer weather means you can enjoy more of Montreal's great outdoor offerings, such as sitting on one of many patios or just soaking up the city's rich, historic atmosphere. Evenings can still be a bit chilly; a light jacket or shawl is recommended.

Canada’s largest natural sciences museum complex is being transformed into the first space dedicated to humankind and nature. Resumo: O Espaço para a Vida, de Montreal, é um projeto no valor de 189 milhões de dólares canadianos que reúne o Biodôme, o Insectarium, o Jardim Botânico e o Planetário da cidade num lugar que oferece uma experiência integradora que fomenta a imersão, a ligação e a participação; e uma praça pública que cria novas formas de reunião, de habitação de um espaço e de construção e experiência da vida quotidiana. O maior complexo museológico de ciências naturais do Canadá está a ser transformado no primeiro espaço dedicado à humanidade e à natureza. Biodiversity refers to all forms of life on Earth. We know that 25% to 50% of all species will disappear by the end of this century. We also know that our survival depends on biodiversity, which provides us with countless services. It feeds us, cares for us, and even determines the quality of the air we breathe. In fact, biodiversity provides us with so many services that it is very difficult to assign it economic value.
