All about Monarchs

Montréal, the first city in Quebec to take the Mayors’ Pledge

In September 2015, the National Wildlife Federation launched the Mayors’ Monarch Pledge in an effort to engage cities, towns, counties and communities of all kinds to join the effort to help save monarch butterflies. Since then, more than 270 cities in Mexico, the United States and Canada have committed themselves to this great initiative. Montréal is the first city in Quebec to sign up and become a “Monarch-friendly city.”

Monarch Oasis

Create an attractive haven for these wonderful migratory insects by growing milkweed and nectar-producing plants. Your garden will become a place where you can observe these flamboyant Lepidoptera at your leisure. At the same time, you will help protect a migration phenomenon that is unique in the world and, unfortunately, in decline.
