You have to get a health insurance when going to Montreal and a double visa, one for Canada and one especially for Quebec. This will set you back a few hundred dollars. Hmm.. other than that, there werent that many financial surprises except for the trip to Miami. Be sure to do some travel whilst in Canada but remember that the US is much more expensive and you dont want to dig too deep of a hole in your wallet before university hasnt even started...
