I could u_u Probably because I was awake because most people that were sleeping didn't feel it, but my headboard went "bang bang bang" on the wall and the base of the bed kind of poltergeist-lifted 2 times, but all that super quickly in 5 seconds and then, nothing O.o

Wow. Are you sure that wasn't the neighbors next door? ;) Earthquakes are really weird. During the one last year, me and my friends in the house started out by hearing a low rumble, like a big truck going by outside. Then it got louder and things started shaking but you could tell that the ground was moving up and down, not side to side. We all panicked and ran outside. We occasionally get little 4.0 quakes where the windows would rattle but nothing like the 5.8 one last year. At least we're not on the West Coast like California and aren't in danger of falling into the ocean. LOL!

Haha by my description is sure sounds like someone was having too much fun XD lollll but no, it was more scary than awkward, believe me... and I know what you mean about the ground, it's literally like... waves, and a loud, becoming louder, metallic sound, (after the original boom-car-struck-the-house one) like if you shake a giant sheet of metal paper I'd expect it to sound like that O,o

My geologist friends thought it was really cool. And in retrospect, it was kinda cool but at the time, I was like "OMG!! We'reallgoingtodie!!!" Hopefully things are calmer there now. BTW, I love Montreal. I was there this Summer for the DC United game and loved it! Well not the game so much because we lost but the city was fabulous. I hadn't been there in over 20 years since high school. I'm learning French so hopefully I can say a few more words next time I'm up there.
