Do I need to speak French when visiting Montreal?

Is it really true that a person should know at least a little French to get around Montreal? Is it polite to at least make an attempt at speaking French, or should I just avoid it if I'm not any good at it?

good question,
French are always very passionate and loud when they speak, so, I'm not sure whether I should speak the language poorly, or use sign language instead lol

You will find if you atleast attempt to speak French and explain you do not speak the language well. The people of Montreal or Quebec for that matter will gladly speak English.

I have no problems talking English with people in Montreal. Maybe because I am asian.

Montreal is a wonderful place..
