One other thing to add: permanent residency is issued at the province level.
If you’re planning to move here permanently and don’t speak French, don’t move anywhere in Quebec. It’s the only province that requires French language competency for permanent residency. In other provinces, you can acquire PR with just English.
Montréal is pretty cool and as long as you put an effort learning French you’ll be fine. But I know people who never even gave a try and they are fine as well. But we appreciate the effort.

Montreal is nice, but in my experience you will be looked down on if you don’t speak French.
What do you do for fun? Montreal is good for culture and activities.
Are you ok with the weather there? West Coast is way more mild.
