Montreal just isn't as prepared as LA & SF, Sydney & Auckland, especially Tokyo. So if a very intense earthquake ever hits, the city could get quite a jolt.

Only one of_the_tallest_office_buildings_in_Montreal has been permitted to have 51 stories. There are some residential buildings with more floors.

1250boulevard René-Levesque 

1000 de la Gauchetière is the tallest office tower in Montreal, at 51 stories. Montreal might never allow 100 story buildings like NYC & Chicago have. No Melbourne towers with over 100 levels.
