In general, in one's day-to-day life (at businesses and in public) it is better to default to French (obviously this doesn't apply if you are a tourist who doesn't speak French).

At the convention however, it would be wise to start off in English (seeing as a lot of artists, vendors, exhibitors and guests may not speak any French) and then switch over the French whenever the need arises.

As for Chinatown, in most cases I think that using English may serve you better than using French, but younger staff (usually second gen Canadians) are bilingual so you can go with whatever you're more comfortable with. Honestly though, the only thing you should be buying in Chinatown is food, so it is pretty straightforward: "give me that food -> total -> here's your money".

These are the times for the first and last passages at métro station Place-d'Armes (the station that is attached directly to the convention centre). In general, if you want to play it safe, I would suggest heading home around midnight.
