ANSWER: I am not clear whether you need to get to Montreal directly from Pearson or not.  And, if you do, then why you are not flying directly to Montreal.

However, here are some ways to get from Toronto to Montreal:

Answer
Before I answer the rest of your question I'd like to ask if there is a reason why you are not able to fly from London directly to Montreal?  There are such direct flights on a few airlines.  Would it be better for you to fly direct to Montreal, then go to Toronto the next day?  Or, are you able to cut out Toronto entirely by flying direct to Montreal?  Please let me know.
