Am I overlooking something obvious here? There is lat, long properties
in wgs84 vocab. So,

<span about="http://dbpedia.org/resource/Montreal">
    <span property="geo:lat"
          content="45.5"
          datatype="xsd:float"></span>
    <span property="geo:lat"
          content="-73.666667"
          datatype="xsd:float"></span>
    Montreal
</span>

Tabbed for readability. You might need to get rid of whitespace.
