| It has been suggested that this article be split into articles entitled Communauté métropolitaine de Montréal and Montreal census metropolitan area. (Discuss) |
The Greater Montreal Area is the most populous metropolitan area in the Canadian province of Quebec. As of 2006, Statistics Canada identifies Montreal's Census Metropolitan Area (CMA) (land area 4,259 km²) as Canada's second most populous with a population of 3,635,571 [1]. A slightly smaller area of 3,838 km² is governed by the Communauté métropolitaine de Montréal (CMM) (English: "Montreal Metropolitan Community", a translation rarely used). This level of government is headed by a president (currently City of Montreal mayor Gérald Tremblay). The CMM has a land area and an estimated population of 3,493,485[citation needed].
