(Yes, I know that the bilingual Professor Iggyhas strong sentimental and family ties with Montreal:

Though born in Toronto, Ignatieff has always identified with Quebec. He says the prospect of the province's separation fills him "with something like physical pain, anguish, tears. I can't think about it. My parents are buried there. It's very emotional."

but Toronto is where he was a student and is an affiliated professor. Don't spoil the joke.)
