It is the largest city in the province, the second-largest in Canada and the 9th-largest in North America. Originally called Ville-Marie, or "City of Mary", it is named after Mount Royal, the triple-peaked hill in the heart of the city. The city is on the Island of Montreal, which took its name from the same source as the city, and a few much smaller peripheral islands, the largest of which is Île Bizard. French is the city's official language and is the language spoken at home, as Quebecois French, by 56.9% of the population of the city, followed by English at 18.6% and 19.8% other languages (in the 2006 census)."
