Free Montreal travel in three simple steps

Do you like Montreal? I have to admit, I've been there three times in the past two years, and I just can't get enough of it. The minute I hit the streets of Old Montreal, I find myself craving a hotdog at the St-Denis Pool Hall before dashing over to the art galleries on St-Paul Ouest. Even with winter approaching rapidly, I'm feeling the pull up north.

So, I was pretty excited by a cool contest that just hit the web from CheapOair, and the social media junkie in me was drawn in. The upside is pretty exciting: two roundtrip tickets to Montreal from Air Canada, two luxurious nights at the Montreal Marriott Chateau and tickets to a variety of local attractions around the city from Tourism Montreal.

If you win, I strongly suggest you go hang out with local foodie Katerine Rollet for a while. Ask her about the local hotdogs, and she'll probably know I put you up to it.

So, how do score this getaway? Well, you have to click around to three sites ... and maybe do a little typing. There are three simple steps:

  • Katerine Rollet explores Chelsea Papaya
  • Chelsea Papaya
  • Chelsea Papaya
  • Mont-Royal in Montreal
  • Mont-Royal in Montreal
  • Steamed hotdog at Mont-Royal


1. Head over to Facebook – assuming you're already one of the 500 million users of the site. "Like" the Montreal Buzz page.

2. While you're in Facebook, click over to CheapOair's page and "like" that, too.

3. Finally, you'll have to leave Facebook (don't worry, you can – and probably will – wind up back there at some point during the day). Visit the Tourism Montreal blog and leave a comment telling everyone why you want to head up there. You won't get extra points for mentioning the hotdogs in town, but I haven't heard that doing so will hurt.

The contest kicks off November 1, 2010 and ends on November 5, 2010. The winner will be announced on November 8, 2010. Fortunately, you won't have to wait long to see if you'll get to hit the road.
