If Montreal had been separated from Quebec and became a city-state in 1960's

I just wonder,
If Montreal had been separated from Quebec and became a city-state in 1960's ?
What kind of city would it be?

Les trois premières années, on aurait probablement vu un exode des capitaux et sièges sociaux vers Toronto.

La multiplication des gouvernements n'est jamais une bonne chose. On n'a qu'à constater la structure de maire d'arrondissement mis en place à Montréal qui trop souvent la paralyse.

Aussi on aurait eu droit à un autre palier de gouvernement et on voit comment c'est inefficace aujourd'hui avec la gestion de la covid. Est-ce vraiment nécessaire? Le Québec est plus fort avec sa métropole et la métropole est plus forte avec le reste de la province.

Au contraire, ça dynamise la ville en permettant aux maires d'arrondissements d'expérimenter diverses mesures. Par exemple les saillies de trottoir ont été construites dans le Plateau-Mont-Royal en premier, et devant leur succès, le concept a été repris dans la plupart des arrondissements.

Tu n'as pas besoin d'avoir 18 maires d'arrondissements pour expérimenter des choses différentes dans des quartiers différents. On peut avoir des conseillers ou des citoyens qui proposent des choses à la ville sans avoir 18 sous-maires.

Interesting thoight, (I just discovered your thread). I think that it might be different politically, but I think architecturally and culturally, it would have been similar to what it is.
I can't stop thinking that it's the greatest city in Canada. All that "pizazz" is true, not a fabrication. The one thing I find difficult is the long, cold snowy winer, but hey I'm from Vancouver.

Des trois je pense que tu as raison. Il existe une vibe qu’on ne retrouve ailleurs au canada. Chaque grande ville du canada possède ses atouts mais clairement Montréal possède ce mélange de culture/vie urbaine/architecture qui la rend unique. Ce que tu appèles affectueusement pizazz.

Oui l’hiver est difficile à Montréal. Mais encore, quand on la compare à Québec l’hiver n’est vraiment pas un enjeu, crois moi. Mais tu as bien raison. Vous êtes choyés à Vancouver sur ce point. Ca fait partie d’ailleurs de vos atouts.
