Out of curiosity, do you remember which JDK had this timezone?
Sun's JDK on Linux doesn't have it:

 | $ find /usr/local/j2sdk1.4.2_08/jre/lib/zi/ -name Montreal
 | /usr/local/j2sdk1.4.2_08/jre/lib/zi/America/Montreal

It only has America/Montreal, which PostgreSQL should grok just fine,
AFAICT:

 | $ find /usr/share/zoneinfo/ -name Montreal
 | /usr/share/zoneinfo/right/America/Montreal
 | /usr/share/zoneinfo/posix/America/Montreal
 | /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Montreal
