Written by Julie Perrone. Published by Dragon Hill Publishing Ltd., 2008. Description: |
French explorers first came to the New World seeking uncharted
lands and unprecedented wealth. What they brought with them, however, was a
unique culture that would eventually emerge as one of Canadas most
dynamic and influential societies. How the French Created Canada: From New
France to French Canada tells their story from past to
present. Seven million Canadians from coast to coast identify themselves as having French or French Canadian ancestry. They have contributed to every aspect of life in our countrylanguage, government, business, education, cuisine, media and the arts. Fierce battles were fought and wars waged by early colonists and Quebecois seeking autonomy. Nonetheless the country remains united, with French Canadian spirit and participation contributing to the development of Canadaborn under two languages and two flags, adding richness and depth to this countrys cultural fabric and to our collective Canadian identity.
