Quebec City is beautiful in any season…during the summer…when the parks and historic sites are adorned with flowers… and outdoor music festivals abound…in the fall when the changing of the colors of the leaves is a worthy subject for any artist…..in the winter, when one may take one’s choice of winter sports in which to engage ( including sledding, skiing, snowboarding, dog sledding….)..and in the spring when the city and its people are starting to put the snows away for yet another few months.
With a population of around 750,000, Quebec is large enough to support cultural and economic enterprise…..but small enough to retain the feel of a close-knit francophone community. Steeped in history, it offers a return to the source of French culture in North America…through its many museums and historical sites within the old walls of the city…..and a look on the modern evolution of the francophone heritage in Canada.
