\n\u00ab Whenever I’m alone with you, you make me feel like I am home again. \u00bb
\n– The Cure<\/em><\/p>\n

Montr\u00e9al est la sc\u00e8ne magnifique sur laquelle mes amours les plus passionn\u00e9es que je n’ai jamais v\u00e9cues durant toute ma vie se d\u00e9roulent.<\/p>\n

Ma derni\u00e8re aventure m’a possiblement \/ r\u00eaveusement \/ enfin men\u00e9 \u00e0 mon \u00e2me soeur : la personne qui me choisira inconditionnellement.<\/p>\n

On s’est rencontr\u00e9s \u00e0 un vernissage chez un ami commun. Chaque semaine, son appart se transformait en salle d’exposition, ouverte au grand public pour venir profiter des \u0153uvres des diff\u00e9rents artistes. On a discut\u00e9 philosophie, de l’histoire de l’Internet, et la meilleure fa\u00e7on de garder les plantes d’int\u00e9rieur en vie. On s’est dits adieu : elle est partie chez elle afin d’organiser une f\u00eate d’anniversaire ; je suis parti au bar afin de danser \u00e0 une f\u00eate queer<\/em>.<\/p>\n

On tra\u00eenait ensemble : aux festivals des arts, aux batailles m\u00e9di\u00e9vales, et \u00e0 Toronto (o\u00f9 on a d\u00e9cid\u00e9 que, malgr\u00e9 le progr\u00e8s<\/a>, on aime mieux la sc\u00e8ne montr\u00e9alaise). On a soup\u00e9 chez Lafleur, a din\u00e9 chez Jos\u00e9, et a d\u00e9jeun\u00e9 chez nous. Je lui ai confi\u00e9 tous mes secrets ; elle, les siens. On s’est parl\u00e9s en fran\u00e7ais avec des forts accents anglos, car c’est le cool thing to do<\/em>. Nos balades nocturnes se transformaient en r\u00e9unions de pr\u00e9paration o\u00f9 on jasait de nos projets de film qu’on voulait r\u00e9aliser ensemble.<\/p>\n

Puis ensuite, de \u00ab bonnes nouvelles \u00bb : elle a trouv\u00e9 une job \u00e0 l’\u00e9tranger avec une agence de d\u00e9veloppement international. Quand elle m’a inform\u00e9, elle me manquait d\u00e9j\u00e0. Elle me manque toujours.<\/p>\n

Chaque fois que j’oublie la raison pour laquelle je reste \u00e0 Montr\u00e9al, ce sont les coups de foudre comme celui-ci qui me font rappeler. On ne peut trouver cette flamme de passion ailleurs au Canada. Pourquoi cette ville est-elle si capable d’allumer des feux si intenses entre ses citoyens ? Est-il \u00e0 cause de la longue p\u00e9riode d’hibernation ? La situation multiculturelle ? Le fait que les Montr\u00e9alaises et les Montr\u00e9alais sont beaux comme des dieux ? La chaleur est de retour sur l’\u00eele ; Montr\u00e9al, merci encore de m’avoir fait chaud partout. Je t’aime.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
