Gameplay

edit

The rules of the game are identical to its English Canadian counterpart; however, the questions in Cash Cab tend to be more scientific-related while Taxi Payant's questions can be about virtually any topic, from geography to sports to pop culture to even general trivia about the city of Montreal, Quebec, where the show is filmed in. On numerous episodes, Barrette is even seen outside the cab, asking general knowledge questions to strangers on the street for an easy $10.
