  • LE CHEMIN DU ROY (1Re Partie)
    ENTRETIEN LE CHEMIN DU ROY (1re partie) Au début de la colonie, il n’existait pas de réseau routier, mis à part quelques sentiers, tels ce chemin de bois, dit grande allée ou grande ligne, qui reliait dès 1650 la pointe ouest du Cap-aux-Diamants et Cap-Rouge1. Pour se déplacer, on utilisa d’abord la route fluviale, puis des chemins de grève, tracés sur terre battue à 12 mètres environ en deçà de la ligne des plus hautes marées, conformément à cette ordonnance du Conseil souverain, datée du 13 mai 1665 : …il est nécessaire que les clotures… soient… apposées à deux perches au dessus des plus haultes marées… pour la liberté tant du passage des charrettes et bestiaux que de la navigation. Enjoinct à toutes personnes de reformer celles qui sont plus que les dites deux perches… à peyne de tout despens d’hommages et intérests et mesmes d’amendes… Durant plus de 80 ans, des charrettes tirées par des bœufs puis des chevaux franchiront ces routes rudimentaires, ancêtres du chemin royal. Nous ne croyons pas faire fausse route en prétendant, comme plusieurs auteurs, que l’actuelle route 138 sur la rive nord du fleuve suit, dans son ensemble, le parcours original du chemin du Roy, sauf lorsqu’on a dû bifurquer par l’intérieur des terres. À l’origine, cette voie de communication fut entreprise sous l’impulsion de quelques grands voyers, à qui fut conférée la charge des voies publiques. LES GRANDS VOYERS L’office de grand voyer est attribué en 1657 par la Compagnie des Cent-Associés à René Robineau (de Bécancour).

  • Advice for Those Coming to New France Habitants’ Daily Life in Excerpt from a Document Written by Pierre Boucher, the New France Governor of Trois Riviére, in 1664
    #9 Advice for those coming to New France Habitants’ daily life in Excerpt from a document written by Pierre Boucher, the New France governor of Trois Riviére, in 1664. Comments in brackets are not part of the original document. They have been added to assist the reader with difficult words. Comments in brackets are not part of the original document. They have been added to assist the reader with difficult words. Advice for those coming to New France The people best fitted for this country are those who can work with their own hands in making clearings, putting up buildings and otherwise; for as men’s wages are very high here, a man who does not take care and prac- tice economy will be ruined; but the best way is always to begin by clear- ing land and making a good farm, and to attend to other things only after that has been done, and not to do like some whom I have seen, who paid out all their money for the erection of fine buildings which they had to sell afterwards for less than the cost. […] Most of our settlers are persons who came over in the capacity of ser- vants, and who, after serving their masters for three years, set up for themselves …. If they are fairly hard working people you see them in four or five years in easy circumstances and well fitted out for persons of their conditions in life. Poor people would be much better off here than they are in France, pro- vided they are not lazy … in one word, no people are wanted, either men or women, who cannot turn their hands to some work, unless they are very rich.

  • History of the Ojibways
    Library of Congress History of the Ojibways 21 HISTORY OF THE OJIBWAYS, BASED UPON TRADITIONS AND ORAL STATEMENTS. BY WILLIAM W. WARREN. 23 PREFACE.1 1 Written in 1852, before the emancipation of negroes in the Southern States of the Republic.—E. D. N. The red race of North America is fast disappearing before the onward resistless tread of the Anglo-Saxon. Once the vast tract of country lying between the Atlantic sea-board and the broad Mississippi, where a century since roamed numerous tribes of the wild sons of Nature, but a few—a very few, remnants now exist. Their former domains are now covered with the teeming towns and villages of the ”pale face“ and millions of happy free-men now enjoy the former home of these unhappy and fated people. The few tribes and remnants of tribes who still exist on our western frontiers, truly deserve the sympathy and attention of the American people. We owe it to them as a duty, for are we not now the possessors of their former inheritance? Are not the bones of their ancestors sprinkled through the soil on which are now erected our happy homesteads? The red man has no powerful friends (such as the enslaved negro can boast), to rightly represent his miserable, sorrowing condition, his many wrongs, his wants and wishes. In fact, so feebly is the voice of philanthropy raised in his favor, that his existence appears to History of the Ojibways http://www.loc.gov/resource/lhbum.0866b_0025_0398 Library of Congress be hardly known to a large portion of the American people, or his condition and character has been so misrepresented 24 that it has failed to secure the sympathy and help which he really deserves.

  • Spiritual Gastronomy in Québec
    SPIRITUAL GASTRONOMY TOUR The Province of Québec1 is the largest province in Canada and the second-most populous province of Canada, after Ontario. It is the only one to have a predominantly French- speaking population, with French as the sole provincial official language. Most inhabitants live in urban areas near the Saint Lawrence River between Montréal and Québec City, the capital. The name "Québec", which comes from the Algonquin word kébec meaning "where the river narrows". The history of Québec dates as far back as the discovery of Canada itself. It was indeed on her soil that Jacques Cartier, the envoy of the king of France, landed for the first time in 1534. Since the earliest days of New France in the 17th century, religion and public demonstrations of faith have been a vital aspect of Québec society. The conversion of the Amerindians and the spread of Catholicism throughout North America played a key role in the growth of this initially French and later British colony. Today, this centuries-old tradition is reflected in numerous places of worship, the guardians of Québec’s religious and cultural heritage. The province of Québec counts: 20 Roman Catholic cathedrals 19 Dioceses 4 National Shrines of Canada 2018 64 parishes 1995 269 parishes 2018 228 churches belong to parishes ▪ 46 churches were sold. 12 alienated churches belong to municipalities. ▪ 4 churches are closed to worship and ready to be sold. Since 1980 ▪ 8 churches are considered surplus to the cult ▪ 1 church destroyed by fire. 2018 14 000 priests, nuns 1961 more than 60 000 And we can go on with more information.

At this me of the year many of us may be wondering how Christmas was celebrated during the me of our forefathers, especially at the me of Denis-Joseph who seled in Trois Rivières in the early 1700 and whose life is highlighted in this issue of the newsleAer. The author, Télésphore St.Pierre, in his book ‟Histoire des Canadiens du Michigan et du comté d’Essex en Ontario‟ (The history of Canadians from Michigan in the Essex township of Ontario) offers a short passage on how Christmas was celebrated in the Great Lakes area of New France in 1675. Amongst the first selers and missionaries, Christmas was primarily a spiritual event. Here is how Father Nouvel celebrated Christmas in a flamboyant fashion. “Having built a small manger next to the alter“ he said “As of midnight all our Chrisans came and throughout the day they sang hymns that resonated in the nearby forest in honor of the new born baby Jesus. It was a joy for us to witness, during the midnight mass and during day masses, the Savages recognizing the infant child Jesus in this country where the devil had reigned for such a long me“ This tradion has perpetuated itself during the centuries and certain aspects sll persist today.
