I'll be making these soon enough, thanks for the inspiration.

Lolwut, unless there are two Dorval's the one I know of is like a 5 min drive away and 1 bus ride 15 mins away tops. Westmount, CSL are much further.
Lachine also is very close to west island but not considered to be. Still Lachine borders on Dorval, I can get there much faster than say Westmount or CSL.
Double checked because I thought maybe I was wrong, it's possible as Dorval and St-Anne de Bellevue are at opposite ends of the west island.
Like I said, dude, I just grouped them together based on what seemed close to one another (on Google Maps, I figured I'd cluster cities/boroughs together rather than assume what's in what "end" of the city and offend someone ).
My bad!

On another note, 26 of 73 voters so far live on the island of Montreal. 21 live off of it, but still in QC.

PEI is more Leafs I think. NS has quite the bunch of Pens fans.. for understandable reasons. NB on the other hand... mostly Habs. I can see a close split if the Nordiques come back.
Anyway, right now: outside of PQ (Ontario), but St Hilaire & Brossard represent!!
What do you mean Ile-Bizard doesn't count? Are you saying that I've been lied to my whole life?
the "and off islands" part is where it gets misleading. Lachine, Ile Perot, Pincourt, Vaudreuil-Dorion, St-Lazare and Hudson are all either off island or don't count for one reason or another. (See wiki)
Ile Bizare should count because you can only get there from the West Island (it's an island right off of pierrefonds) but isn't for some reason. But yet St-Anne which is far out of the way is considered to be, but then Vaudreuil-Dorion which are attached to St-Anne/Senneville by bridge are not consider west island
Reason being no public transit to those places except Ile Bizare/St-Anne/Lachine. Personally I don't get why Lachine doesn't count either, it's basically an extension of Dorval
But that having been said many of those fall into the "off island communities" and are thus not west island. You've been mislead Also I've never heard of 12 and 14 being distinguished separately before.

Didn't notice this post till now. Not offended at all just found it funny Dorval was linked to CSL but not the west island
