Don't know about the airport, but there are several very large PQ wine and liquor stores in downtown Montreal. I seem to remember one not too far from the Delta on Presdient Kennedy, and several on St. Denis. The wine selection in these stores is mind boggling. These shops have a maroon sign with a square 'Q'.

Zootsi, do you mean &quot;SAQ&quot; (&quot;Societe d'alcool Quebec&quot;--pardon my French if it's slighty off...)stores ?<BR>Tom, there are plenty of stores all over downtown. Are you looking for something specific?

Jon,<BR>Mainly I was curious if they do sell wine at the airport duty free shops<BR>if it would cost the same there as<BR>downtown for the identical wine.<BR>Tom

You cannot buy at Duty free shops at the airport whenyou arrive, only when you leave . Items are sold without the taxes for export, not for use within the country you are in!
