USDA Zone 2, Northwestern Ontario, Canada. I have had this rose for several years. De Montarville has been totally winter hardy with no protection, and totally disease free. When I moved it last year, a stem broke off, and the stem was just stuck into the soil. It received no extra attention, and this past summer bloomed twice even though the new plant was only 6" tall. I'm very impressed! The photos aren't able to do the color of the blossoms full justice.

Robert.........
I suggest you do a search of previous posts answering questions regarding pruning. There are a lot of variables. Some people do not prune roses in the fall due to where they live and what kind of rose they are tending. Modern roses store their nutrients in their canes and in the process of going dormant, if the canes are pruned back they don't have the reserves for the spring push for coming out of dormancy.
However..... there are other variables to consider, too. In some areas where winter protection is required, some people prune the roses back to fit under the winter protection materials. Others who are afraid canes may be broken by the weight of snow, or plants damaged by wind-rock, will prune their roses back to avoid problems in the spring.
Other roses will only bloom on old wood, so if you are referring to roses of this type, they would be pruned after their bloom period in spring or summer.
Smiles,
