Cripple
For my summer homework, I have a few questions I've been unable to answer.
1. What kind of things can you do there if you spend your summer/winter vacation in the province of Quebec?
2. Name 2-3 famous people from the province of Quebec, and describe what they are famous for.
3. Name 2-3 products and/or events the province of Quebec is well known for.
Thank you all in advance! :)
Answer
I lived there for almost 22 years. 1.In the summer months you can "go fly fishing for native brook trout", you can canoe in rivers and lakes, you can camp in a tent in zones called "ZEC" way up in the bush. You can visit tourist attractions such as "Les Grand Chutes Canyon Ste. Anne" over the St. Anne river. You cross over rope-supported bridges and look down into the canyon, you can take a photo of the famous hotel Le Chateau Frontenac from the Levis Ferry, after boarding on foot from Quebec City to Levis, you can take a cruise boat called the HMS Louie Joiiette and sail down to the Quebec Bridge and up to the Island of Orleans while listening to a live orchestra. In the winter you can ski down the slopes of the highest vertical ski drop in Eastern Canada at Le Massif just past Beaupre, Quebec, you can take a borrowed husky dog team out dog-sledding, you can go snowshoeing with snow shoes made the way they were made 400 years ago, you can go ice skating on rinks, and frozen ponds and lakes,. You can climb to the top of of Mountain at the end of McGill St., in Montreal and on a clear day you can admire a view of a good portion of the City of Montreal. 2.There are so many famous Quebecers. Giles Vignault from Natashquan, Quebec who wrote scores of songs such as "Mon Pays Ce N'est Pas Un Pays - C'est L'Hiver" ("My country is not a country - it's the winter"). Prime Minister Pierre Elliot Trudeau who tried to bring in Bilingualism throughout Canada and did bring in the Constitution Act in 1982 from which we have our "Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms" today. Samuel de Champlain, whose statue is beside the hotel Le Chateau Frontenac in Quebec City. He founded that city in 1608 and they celebrated their 400th anniversary four years
ago. 3.PRODUCT: Maple Syrup. You can visit a real sugar-shack village up on the mountain South/above Riguad, Quebec. If you stay for the evening you can watch and participate in square-dancing or just listening to the fiddles being played (this maple village is about 10 miles Northwest of the Auberge des Galland near Ste. Marte which had a million dollar fire in April 2012). EVENT: "The Quebec (City) Winter Carnival" one event is the long boat races across the St. Lawrence River during the Carnival where boaters hop in/jump out ad row on water and slide on ice to beat their competitors. By the way, if you visit a sugar shack in April or May, you can watch as warm maple syrup, just after it is poured over the snow...it then crystallizes and you eat it cold .
PRODUCT: Newsprint...Spruce trees in the northern half of Quebec provide enough pulp to print all newspapers in Quebec, some in Ontario and some in New York and Boston. This is after, of course, the pulp is pressed into newsprint which comes out of the pulp and paper mills in throughout the northern parts in rolls that are 20 feet wide and almost a half mile long.
