Jacques Cartier's reached Montreal on his second voyage to North America, in 1535, when he explored the island and climbed Mont Royal. The island was settled by 1000 Iroquois, who lived in a fortified town they called Hochelaga. When the explorer Samuel de Champlain passed her in 1611, he did not find the town, but recognized the island's location at the junction of the Ottawa and St Lawrence rivers as a perfect spot for a fur trading post. A group of French citizens settled there in 1642, called it Ville Marie and tried to convert the natives to Christianity, though ran into resistance from the Iroquois natives, which continued until a treaty was signed in 1701.

In the 1960s, under Mayor Jean Drapeau, its underground Metro subway system connected all of its neighbourhoods, and in 1967, the city hosted the world's air, better known as "Expo 67" which was very much the international symbol of Canada's centennial, and in 1976, Montreal hosted the summer Olympic Games. A shake-up of Québec society came about with the "Quiet Revolution" in the 1960s, spurred by the Liberall provincial government under Jean Lesage. The Liberals, despite being staunchly federalist, were constantly at loggerheads with Ottawa.

Trudeau set about redrafting and repatriating the country's Constitution in the autumn of 1981. Beacuase Querbec was not given a veto to protect its langauge rights, the provincial government refused to sign it. The the 1990 Meech Lake Accord, architected by prime minister Brian Mulroney, which addressed a Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms and recognized Québec's status as a "distinct society" did not succeed in bringing Quebec into the constutional fold. Another referendum in 1994 was held where the province opted to remain a part of Canada by a margin of under one percent (50.6% to 49.4%). This close call awoke the federalist camp, and promted the governing Federal Liberals to invest huge sums to keep Quebec (and its voters) in Confedration. In 1992, Montreal celebrated is 350th anniversary.
