Is Montreal Canada still the 3rd largest French speaking city in the world?

Question

A few decades ago, Montreal was the largest city in Canada, but threats of separatism caused a massive exodus of anglos and their large successful businesses. Today Toronto is the largest Canadian city and poor Montreal is just that --- POOR! Quebec with all its natural resources and 'advanced' infrastructure relies on the rest of Canada to support it! HAVE other French speaking cities passed Montreal in size (population)?

Answer 1

Kinshasa and Abidjan are both larger. The dispute seems to be over whether Kinshasa is a French-speaking city. Abidjan, which has a population of around 5 million people, is more French speaking, and surely deserves to be called a francophone city in which French is the most widely used language.
