I feel compelled to point out here, of course, that coming to Montreal by
no means requires that "the course will be in French" -- there are four
universities in Montreal, Concordia University and McGill University
being the two English-language institutions that round out the list that
Yves Lever starts up above.
Both McGill and Concordia have quite good cinema studies programs ...
Universite du Quebec a Montreal, by contrast, does not _have_ an undergrad
cinema studies program.
This might be of interest to a mailing list which is, as far as I can
tell, conducted mainly in the English language.  Pour ceux qui se
debrouillent bien en francais, vous avez plus de choix a considerer, bien
entendu...

Now, Yves, I love Montreal as much as you do ... but the only city in
North America to see films "from all over the world"?  I can't help but
be somewhat dubious!
