Usages do not agree on the meaning of the adjectives "Greater" and "Metropolitan" sometimes considered synonyms. Usually, "Greater" means a large city with its surrounding suburbs, while "Metropolitan," usually said of a metropolis and its suburbs, includes also the inhabited region surrounding the former. The expression "Greater Montréal" was understood as grouping all the municipalities of the Île de Montréal (or Montréal Island) forming the new city of Montréal since 1 January 2002, but as excluding those on Jésus Island, Bizard Island and the South Shore. To include all of these, the expressions "Metropolitan Montréal" or "Greater Montréal area" were used.

Socialist Challenge was the name of a Trotskyist group in English Canada formed by former members of the Revolutionary Workers League/Ligue Ouvrière Révolutionnaire who were expelled or resigned when the RWL moved away from Trotskyism in the early 1980s. The ex-RWL members formed a number of groups under various names in cities across Canada such as the "Socialist Workers Committee" in Toronto. They regrouped as the "Alliance for Socialist Action" and, in 1988 adopted the name Socialist Challenge(after the name of their newspaper) as a result of an organizational fusion with the Quebec group Gauche Socialiste(the formal name of the group was Socialist Challenge/Gauche Socialiste). Socialist Challenge was initially a sympathizing section of the United Secretariat of the Fourth International but became the USFI's official section in the English Canada in the late 1980s after RWL, now called the Communist League, left the USFI.  1, record 4, English, - Socialist%20Challenge
