    He will be in Montreal this afternoon to visit a digital arts centre.

    On Monday, Hollande was in Ottawa, where he served notice he wants to see Canada taking an active role in helping the world achieve a major climate change agreement well in advance of a summit he will host in Paris in December 2015.
