I believe that the bike sharing system was the biggest improvement related to bike in Montreal in the recent years. The number of cyclists increased significantly due to it. I started to bike because of it and now I have made 2255 BIXI rides. But it is a long story and there are a lot of factors that made Montreal very bikeable and walkable.
Vancouver ain't too shabby either, according to this report, and Montreal is the most dangerous for cycling.

Cyclists in Vancouver safest in the country due to infrastructure, says report - British Columbia - CBC News
