"Suburb"

Mont-Royal is not a 'suburb' - it's a legally identified demerged "town" which is actually right smack in the center of the metropolitan city of Montreal. Basically, Mont-Royal is a rich neighborhood of Montreal. There are some small park squares, but in all it's concrete jungle with expensive houses. Mont-Royal is certainly not a 'suburb'. At least, I was under impression that a suburb means it's a rural area or outskirts.

p.s.

I removed Mont-Royal place of birth and replaced by Montreal, because who cares what borough of a city was he born? What difference does it make whether one was born in Westmount or Mont-Royal or Park Ex - it's all Montreal --Autismal (talk) 14:48, 4 January 2013 (UTC)

Controversies Section

The stuff there, while interesting, seems ridiculously minor in the grand scheme of things. I see him using the phrase "Indian giver" (which is un-PC these days), for which he apologized, and I see him calling someone a "leftwing nutbar." Is that really the stuff that rises to the level of a controversy on Wikipedia? If not then I suggest deleting it. Hanxu9 (talk) 19:15, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

It's something that people insist on keeping, and I think the "indian giver" comment should remain. I'm less sure about the "nut bar" comment. I've edited it numerous times to keep it accurate as some editors seem bent on twisting the facts as found in the transcript to make O'Leary's comments subjectively more controversial than they are.
