7 'Jeopardy!' Questions About Montreal To Test Your Knowledge Of The City
Canada and the rest of the world have lost a true icon: Alex Trebek. In honour of this fellow Canadian, we've found seven Jeopardy! questions about Montreal for you to test your knowledge.
Why seven? Because the show was every weeknight at 7 p.m., of course!
For nearly 40 years, Alex Trebek not only entertained and educated us, but was part of the family, and we enjoyed watching Jeopardy! with him as much as we loved watching the game with the rest of our loved ones.
And we're happy that he got to test contestant's knowledge about our favourite city during his lifetime.
