I will be flying to eastern Canada from the US this summer in my Mooney 201. Which of the following airports would be the best place to clear customs?
Montreal/St. Hubert or Quebec/Jean Lesage
I will also be spending the night at whatever airport I select.
Thanks.

Here's Transport Canada's procedure.

TC AIM - FAL - FACILITATION - Transport Canada (http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/civilaviation/publications/tp14371-fal-menu-2560.htm)

Basically phone the number and do what the customs guy tells you to do.

Remember that exact compliance with eAPIS leaving and entering the US is the more complicated part. Once you have a clearance from eAPIS you must then phone customs where you will be landing.
