It always means stop. You can turn right on red (in most places) but only after you stop first and you must yield to crossing traffic. Unfortunately, not everyone knows this - I've met many people who think "right on red" means you can treat it like a green light as long as you're turning right.
What really gets me pissed is the signs that say "right turn on red after complete stop" which implies that isn't the case fucking everywhere, when it is the case.
Kind of a tangent, but what really scares me about the "turn on red" rule is that it's not the same around the globe.
There are so many international drivers here in Japan that turn left at a red light without realizing that's completely illegal. It catches pedestrians completely off guard. I think on Montreal Island you couldn't do this either.
Stopping at a red light when wanting to turn isn't some rare, obscure situation, so people who are travelling have to BE ABSOLUTELY SURE about this rule before they make use of their international lisence.
