Just because...Best way to find out is to get into IDPA where you must appear to be unarmed, shooting from concealed carry. If it doesn't work there, chances are it won't work on the street either. The rest is just a bunch of wet dream fantasies .....
The PKK is a good option. More accurate than most carry size pistols and the weight balances recoil very well for rapid follow up shots. I have a nice kydex pocket holster for mine. The "hooked" pocket holster conceals well with no pistol outline showing, confortable to carry and easy to make a controlled draw.

Practicality be damned
Luger P08 to show off, or my Walther PP for concealment

If no magazine limit-
Concealed: FNS9 Compact
Open Carry: FNX 45 Tactical
With current magazine limit:
Concealed: 1911A1 Commander with 7rd mag in the gun and 2 10rd mags for backup
Open Carry: 1911A1 Government with 10rd mag in the gun and 2 10rd mags for back up
or M&P45. If I'm only getting 10 rounds, they better be the biggest I can handle and shoot quickly.

Now I'll look into that, not even sure we have that in quebec (surprise...)
If you have IPSC in la belle province, chances are there is IDPA as well.
We had our weekly indoor IDPA practice last night. Wearing our gear, none of us appeared to be armed wearing seasonal clothes. In warmer weather, all it takes is a vest or lightweight jacket.

This for BC.
No IDPA in Quebec. Closest clubs would be Ottawa area.
Legal CC in Canada is about as close to happening as is ocean surfing on the moon. Buy a surf board and wait.

Might just as well do it in class!
Put it in a nice hard shell leather holster, over a kilt and nobody would even notice it...
Yup no IDPA in QC
I just joined IDPA Canada to see the requirement for matches in Ontario and will try to maybe attract them in QC. We had IPSC nationals or provincials 2 years ago if my memory is right. No reasons not to have IDPA

I didn't say it wasn't a good gun, there are just much better options. You could carry a number of 9mm pistols that are smaller or lighter. Even a Glock 26 is the same weight and carries almost twice as many rounds.

On a more serious note, the grip is the hardest part to conceal. A few years back, I got to play with a G17 that had been bastardized to take G26 magazine... Though it was a neat idea.
- 10rds on tap, easier to conceal
- Carry a full length 17rds magazine as a backup, in case you're dealing with a hoard of zombies
And from my seat-of-the-pant meter, it had less felt recoil than a PPK
