As a North American society and the only society on the continent with a French-speaking majority, the culture of the province of Quebec, Canada shows many unique features. On the whole, this culture differs from that of the well over 300 million English-speaking citizens of Canada and the United States who surround it, as well as from that of France. For historical and linguistic reasons, Quebec also has cultural links with other North American French speaking communities, particularly with the Acadians of New Brunswick and to a lesser extent with the French Canadian communities of northern Ontario a ...

Quebec: Encyclopedia II - Quebec City Quebec - History

Quebec City is the second oldest existing European settlement in Canada (after St. John's). It was founded by Samuel de Champlain on 3 July 1608 at the site of a First Nations settlement called Stadacona. It was to this settlement that the name Canada refers (kanata is an Iroquoian word meaning "village"). Quebec City was captured by the British in 1759 and held until 1763. It was the site of the Battle of the Plains of Abraham during the Seven Years War, in which British troops under General James Wolfe defeated the French general Louis-Joseph de Montcalm and took the c ...

While Montreal has the greatest concentration of fine cuisine restaurants in Canada, even small communities proudly boast of famous inns where the chef has an international reputation. This could be partly explained by a strong immigration in the 1960s and 1970s from Belgium, Switzerland and France. Many of those ...
