In this guide, the masculine gender is used as a generic to facilitate readability. Québec boasts many attractions and a multitude of charms, in addi- tion to offering exceptional quality of life. Moreover one of the main assets of the Capitale-Nationale region is definitely the people who live there and chose it as the place to build their future. The Québec government is proud to support Québec International in its efforts to make Québec a welcoming land and a first-rate destination. Our region has a lot to offer, and I hope that those who read this guide will join the thousands of newcomers we proudly welcome each year. François Blais Member for Charlesbourg Minister of Employment and Social Solidarity Minister responsible for the Capitale-Nationale region ENSEMBLE on fait avancer le Québec ENSEMBLE on fait avancer le Québec ENSEMBLE on fait avancer le Québec A welcoming place for more than 400 years, Québec City is enriched by the cultures that have taken root here over time and that continue to shape its identity. The cradle of French-speaking civilization in North America, a world heritage treasure, a festive and prosperous capital city, our city is a good place in which to live, to grow and to flourish. Open to talent, to knowhow and to innovation, it offers you its unique personality and its exceptional quality of life. I am pleased with the publication of this guide, which is in addition to the measures taken by the city administration and its partners to facilitate your arrival and settlement in our city. Today, I join with our population and with our business community in encouraging you to choose Québec City as your new home. I am convinced that together, we will make it ever more attractive, more efficient and more dynamic. Régis Labeaume Mayor of Québec City A community of knowledge with cuttin- g-edge infrastructures, Québec City has a human side that larger centres all too often lack. It’s that humanity that drives people to contribute to its vitality. As a political, economic and cultural capital, Québec City offers all of the advanta- ges of the big cities with none of the drawbacks. With an vibrant economy, strong indus- trial diversity, and a climate that fosters growth and success, the Québec City region relies on diversity to contribute to its economic and social dynamism. It is with great pleasure that Québec International announces the publication of this first edition of Living in Québec City and its surrou- ndings, an informative guide about resources adapted to the needs of immigrants. This guide will support you throughout your integration journey and help you build your new life here. The Québec City region, famous for its quality of life, treasures creati- vity, fuels innovation and constantly optimizes conditions in order to build a profitable future for all. Here we help people live better lives. We help businesses prosper. It’s a point of pride. Welcome to the Québec City region! Carl Viel President and CEO Québec International When Samuel de Champlain, one of the new world’s first "immigrants", founded the city of Québec, “where the river narrows” (meaning of the Algonquin word Kébec) in 1608, he surely couldn’t have imagined the inspiring journey that this city would take, eventually becoming the capital city of the prov- ince of the same name. A human-scale, forward-looking city with many points of interest, which attracts many tourists every year, in addition to workers, students and immigrants from around the world, who share in its wealth and remarkable growth. Because we are convinced that immigration constitutes the answer to many of the province’s key challenges, Immigrant Québec, an organiz- ation devoted to informing future and current newcomers, is proud to publish this all-new guide, the result of a successful collaborative effort between players in the host society. We hope that it will be the first step of a successful journey as you settle in, and become part of, Québec City and its surrounding area. You’ll find the best resources to facilitate your transition, as well as practical advice and enlightening testimonials. Moreover, you’ll be able to complete the experience by downloading this work free at our website: immigrantquebec.com. I have just one last thing to say: welcome to our beautiful capital city, which is now yours, as well!

  • Aigles Recruiting Class Grows
    14 février 2018 – Acadie Nouvelle Aigles recruiting class grows SEAN HATCHARD TIMES & TRANSCRIPT Dieppe defenceman Alexandre Bernier is joining the Université de Moncton Aigles Bleus next season. PHOTO: SAINT JOHN SEA DOGS Director of hockey operations Jean-François Damphousse believes better days are ahead for the Université de Moncton Aigles Bleus. They can only go up from here. Coming off a three-win season and failing to make the Atlantic University Sport men’s hockey conference playoffs, the Aigles Bleus’ recruiting class for next season grew on Tuesday. The club announced it’s adding four 20-year-old defencemen - Vincent Lanoue, Tobie Paquette-Bisson, former Moncton Wildcat Olivier Desjardins and Dieppe’s Alexandre Bernier - for next year. Lanoue, Paquette-Bisson and Desjardins have all played at least four seasons in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League. Bernier, currently with the Edmundston Blizzard in 14 février 2018 – Acadie Nouvelle the Maritime Junior Hockey League, won a QMJHL President Cup championship and played in the Memorial Cup with the Saint John Sea Dogs last season. Moncton has already landed QMJHL standout goaltender Étienne Montpetit of the Victoriaville Tigres and former Baie- Comeau Drakkar star forward Maxime St-Cy, who red-shirted this season after playing two years professionally. “The defencemen we’ve signed are leaders on their teams. When you bring in leaders from that type of league, it brings credibility,”said Damphousse, who was hired by UdeM in the new role last May. “It’s the beginning and we have a long way to go to becoming a championship team. Moving forward, we can be in the game when it comes to recruitment.

  • The German Presence in Quebec City
    The German Presence in the Quebec City Region Researched and compiled by Jacques Gagné [email protected] Last updated: 2016-01-05 1 Map of Quebec City and surrounding area 2 Ursuline Convent and Chapel Quebec City Saint Michael Church Sillery Holy Trinity Church Quebec City 3 The German Presence in the Quebec City Region Researched and compiled by Jacques Gagné [email protected] Last updated: 2016-01-05 Centuries after Hans Bernhard settled in New France, 100,000 people in Québec claim German origins. They may be Francophone descendants of mercenaries in the 18th century or Anglophone immigrants of the 1950s. In the 1980s, after a long period of official downplaying of the presence of the Germans, some German-Canadian leaders fought for recognition of the German contribution to a multicultural Canada. Many German-Quebecers took over this discourse, but some refused the idea of a German ‘founding people’ and insisted on the distinct role of their Francophone society. Furthermore, even in Canada, post-war immigrants had to come to terms with the German past; the victimisation often characterized the German- Canadian press, since readers many, of whom lived in Québec often were expellees of the German ‘eastern territories’ and the few exiles often chose to stay invisible. Thus for its citizens of German heritage, Québec became the place of encounter of several competing identity discourses, whether it was about the role of Francophones in Canadian history or about the role of Germans.

  • Brief on Division 20 of Bill C-97, Amending the Poverty Reduction Act
    Brief on Division 20 of Bill C-97, Amending the Poverty Reduction Act Submitted to the Standing Committee on Finance May 3, 2019 By the Regroupement des groupes de femmes de la région de la Capitale-Nationale (Québec-Portneuf-Charlevoix) The Regroupement des groupes de femmes de la région de la Capitale-Nationale (Québec-Portneuf- Charlevoix) (RGF-CN) is composed of some 40 member groups that work together to defend women’s rights and interests and improve their living standards. Since 1990, the organization has been working on issues related to the fight against poverty and violence, women’s health and the role of women in local and regional development. Background In the context of the Government of Canada’s Poverty Reduction Strategy and Statistics Canada’s consultation on the use of the Market Basket Measure (MBM) as the official poverty line in Canada, we conducted a gender-based analysis of the MBM. Given that the Government of Canada’s Standing Committee on Finance is currently studying Bill C-97, which amends the Poverty Reduction Act (Division 20 of the bill), we believe it is appropriate to share our recommendations with the committee. Research and writing Anne-Pierre Bélanger, Development Officer Revision Judy Coulombe, Development Officer Acknowledgements The RGF-CN would like to thank the Collectif pour un Québec sans pauvreté for the helpful comments on the contents of this brief. Introduction Bill C-97 will formalize adoption of the Market Basket Measure (MBM) as the official poverty line. As such, people whose income is above the MBM threshold will be referred to as having “exited” poverty, and the rest, as living in poverty.
