A CA adjacent to a CMA can be merged with the CMA if the total percentage commuting interchange between the CA and CMA is equal to at least 35% of the employed labour force living in the CA, based on place of work data from the previous census.

Joliette to Montréal : 2,950
Montréal to Joliette : 3,665
population active +- 25k , navettage 2 sens, environ 25%
was 15.7% in 2011, an increase of 10% in just 5 years !!
Valleyfield to Montréal : 5,130
Montréal to Valleyfield : 4,360
population active, +-20k , navettage 2 sens, environ 50%.
Lachute to Montréal : 1,340
Montréal to Lachute : 1,210
population active +- 6k , navettage 2 sens , environ 40%
So we would have 3 other CAs that could merge with Montreal. Valleyfield and Lachute would be next in 2021, and probably Joliette in 2026.
Saint-Hyacinthe (CA) is not adjacent to Montreal mais le navettage entre les 2 is about 35%. The CA is +-8 km from the Montréal CMA limit.
