No, you just need to subscribe to !montreal@lemmy.ca. "Unfortunately" they share the same name, but they are different communities.

Just search for [!montreal@lemmy.ca](/c/montreal@lemmy.ca) on the search bar of your instance (lemmy.ml) and you're good to go!

I think he's looking for something more similar to a multi reddit which as far as I can tell at the moment is not a thing here. A single page you can go to, to see posts from both montreal@lemmy.ml and montreal@lemmy.ca in one single feed.

This is a problem. I want to talk to /c/Montreal in all servers at once, not a specific community

They is great although I am dismayed this obvious need has not been met from back in 800 issues. To me this indicates, not a inability to do it, but an ideological opposition to the very idea.

Probably from people who imagine the protagonist of Lemmy is the instance owners or moderators rather than the user. And they probably are in the majority, or vocal majority of they've been able to stall for so long.

A similar issue exista on mastodon regarding full on account migration, which disempowers the owner class as well as the moderator class
