I'm actually in Montreal and I don't work directly for MaidSafe, but I am very active in the SAFE Network community.
You should definitely pass by the MaidSafe office when you have a chance :-)
The SAFE Network was previously written in C++ (https://www.openhub.net/p/maidsafe) but last year MaidSafe decided to rewrite everything in Rust (https://www.openhub.net/p/safenetwork).
I would recommend joining our forum (https://forum.safenetwork.io) and our chat (https://discord.safenetwork.org) if you have any questions or if you'd like to chat with us.
