Employment may be limited, but you can get away living in the city without French. Of course, it is highly recommended to learn French. A lot of my friends who moved here without French started off at call Centres, where there wasn't much need for French.

A lot of people who move here under your circumstances take intensive French courses, and usually that opens them up employment. They tend to be cheap, and offered - I think - through our CEGEP systems (our pre-University colleges).

Good luck!
