A bit about Quebec We stay in Canada's oldest city. Quebec city is the capital of Quebec ,the heart of French Canadian nationalism. The city sits overlooking the St Laurence River. It is the only walled city North of Mexico. It can almost be divided by line into the old and the new. It was 1608 when Champlain established the city. The French city is English but in name only: in culture and tradition Quebec remains French. The stormy history of the city was besieged 6 times.
