Do people tip?

Tipping in Montreal is usually expected with services such as dining, drinking, and cabs. The rate at which people tip is similar to that of most US cities, the usual tip for dinning is 15% and people often tip a minimum $1-2 for a drink. One thing to note is that the $1 and $2 denominations are coins, so be aware of what you are tipping as it might be more than you expected.
