Boulevard St-Laurent

From Canada.com:

Montreal is only two hours away from Ottawa, and it's a great place to shop. Here are five great shopping streets -- other than Ste-Catherine Street downtown.

This short strip (about eight blocks) in posh Outremont is the place to go for upscale shopping. There's a Tilley Endurables store here, for example, and some wonderful boutiques where your credit card can really work up a sweat. Hungry after your expeditions?
