I'm interested in those places, too. And also Cayenne and Tahiti, for that matter. The other reason I originally picked French to learn instead of Spanish or German or something is that it seems useful for people who want to sail around the world because France has so many overseas tropical islands.
(Montreal does have a particular advantage compared to the rest of Canada in terms of better urbanism, BTW. Check out "Oh the Urbanity" on YouTube.)
At this point, though, I'm interested in any stable democracy that would let me in.
