IL MANEGGIO MILITARE DI QUEBEC
2008-04-14 01:00:00 Ecco ciò che purtroppo rimane del bellissimo Manège Militaire della Città di Québec, distrutto da un tremendo incendio la scorsa settimana. Malgrado il pronto intervento di oltre 90 pompieri, è stato impossibile salvare la costruzione, un gioiello architettonico di valore storico inestimabile costruito nel 1887, oggi sito storico nazionale. Il Maneggio Militare è sede dei Fucilieri Volteggiatori di Québec, unità riservista dell’Esercito Canadese, ed il più antico reggimento di fanteria francese del paese. Le autorità hanno potuto confermare che il 90% dei cimeli del museo, della Prima e Seconda Guerra Mondiale ed altri conflitti a cui il reggimento ha partecipato, armi, documenti, archivi, bandiere, illustrazioni e fotografie siano stati salvati e inizierà prestissimo la difficile opera di restauro.

Quebec Homeowners Intend to Pay off Mortgage Quickly
2008-03-22 16:54:00 Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation's (CMHC) 2007 Mortgage Consumer Survey shows that 76 per cent of Quebecers who recently purchased a home intend to pay off their mortgage as quickly as possible, and 65 per cent of purchasers agreed that they would use extra money to pay down principal whenever they are able - over the national average of 57 per cent. "This study confirms that Quebecers, like most Canadians, remain fundamentally cautious when it comes to managing their mortgage debt," said Pierre Serré, Vice-President, Insurance Product & Business Development, CMHC. "The fact that new homeowners in Quebec intend to pay off their mortgages as quickly as possible, and are taking steps to do so, is a good sign." The 2007 national survey focused primarily on recent purchasers and also for the first time included questions on homeowner behaviour regarding mortgage debt re-payment since arranging their mortgage.SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Quebec Homeowners Intend to Pay off...

PESCA SUL GHIACCIO IN QUEBEC
2008-02-14 00:01:00 St-Anne-de-la-Perade 46 34'18" nord, 72 12'23" ouest25 minuti a nord-est di Trois-Riviéres con l’autostrada 40Il fenomeno della pesca ai "petit poissons des chenaux" (nome scientifico MICROGADUS TOMCOD) in queste zone era già nota agli Irochesi. I primi coloni gioirono per la presenza del 'pesce invernale' a Trois-Riviéres e nel San Lorenzo, vera manna per superare i lunghi e difficili inverni della Nuova Francia. Pur continuandosi nei secoli lungo il San Lorenzo la pesca sul ghiaccio alla più piccola specie di Merluzzo Atlantico (il cui habitat è usualmente l'acqua salata lungo le coste oceaniche meno profonde, le acque salmastre degli estuari dei fiumi ed infine, nel periodo della riproduzione, le acque dolci dei fiumi, il più delle volte sotto spessi strati di ghiaccio) la fama di St-Anne-de-la-Perade risale al 1938 quando Monsieur Eugéne Mailhot scese al fiume St Anne per ritagliarsi un blocco di ghiaccio per il suo 'frigorifero'. La notizia che, sotto il ghiacci...

CARNEVALE DI QUEBEC
2008-02-01 08:00:00 Bonhomme Carnaval - Foto: Martine PagèInizia oggi il più grande carnevale d’inverno, la cui notorietà nel mondo è ormai diventata pari a quella di Rio e di New Orleans. Fino al 17 febbraio un susseguirsi di eventi folclorici e sportivi ambientati nella splendida cornice dell’inverno nordamericano: corse di canoe sul ghiaccio e di slitte coi cani, sculture di ghiaccio, balli in maschera, bagni di neve, cabanes à sucre, barbecue, sfilata di carri allegorici e tanti altri momenti di divertimento dettagliatamente descritti nel sito del CARNAVAL DE QUEBEC.Già gli abitanti delle Nuova-Francia salutavano l’imminente Quaresima con gioiose feste, ‘riscaldandosi’ dal rigido inverno che presto avrebbe lasciato il posto alla poderosa rinascita della natura. Duramente provati dai rigori invernali, era anche un modo per dimostrare di avercela fatta. Durante uno di questi antichi Carnevali, un certo Ti-Père commerciante nella Città Bassa, inventò una bevanda corroborante, un mis...

Quebec City Wants To Celebrate 400 Years Anniversary Of Carnage, Genocide &
2008-01-05 20:48:00 by Kahentinetha Horn Some people have a twisted view of history. Josee Legault, who writes for the Montreal Gazette, complains that the 2008 New Years celebration in Quebec City was a disappointment. Colonialism is a mental illness. Some can see this. According to Legault, Quebec’s major artists were absent. If they were boycotting the event, they showed good sense. For the world to escape the “colonial disease”, the most honest and sensitive artists will lead the way. They will break out of the delusion and find the vision needed to affect a cure. Healing is certainly needed here. The illness that pervades colonial society and all of its agencies and institutions is plain to us, the Indigenous Peoples. We’ve been waiting for the rest of the world to wake up. Legault seems to criticize Le Devoir for saying “the founding of Quebec City was an historical mistake”. Right on! What’s to celebrate? Theft of our land? Vandalism? Plagues? Genocide? Complete denial...

Homosexual Baby Ad Triggers Reaction in Italy
2007-11-12 15:18:00 An ad designed by Canadian agency Émergence and originally used in Quebec is causing an uproar in Italy. The ad (pictured at right) shows a baby with a hospital bracelet reading "homosexual." The regional government in Tuscany has recently put the ad up on billboards in a region-wide campaign to end homophobia. The ad has sparked criticism from the conservative community and the LGBT community, with some arguing that it may communicate that homosexuality is a disease. One thing is certain - Émergence has stirred public interest, and it's not the first time. From le Fondation Émergence (translated from the french): The next question will be asked: is homosexuality innate or acquired? So far, science has been unable to answer this question in the affirmative or consensual. However, there is consensus on one fact: one does not choose their sexual orientation, which has inspired the theme of the campaign. Read an article on this ad at gay.com.
