Canadians, Please Help My Son!

[Brenda Starrr]

Ian needs four historical facts about Quebec. He's gotten two so far, and needs to be done this evening. I thought "Who better to help tan my Canadian DGN friends?"

Can you help him? Thank you!

[Rayne]

What kind of historical facts? I got:

Quebec (pronounced [kwəˈbɛk] or [kəˈbɛk]) (French: Québec, pronounced [kaibɛk]) is the largest province in Canada (in terms of area) and the second most populous, after Ontario, with a population of 7,598,100 (Statistics Canada, July 2005). This represents about 24% of the Canadian population. Quebec's official language is French and is the only Canadian province where English is not an official language. The capital is Quebec City (Québec or la ville de Québec in French) and the largest city is Montreal.

A resident of Quebec is called a Quebecer (also spelled Quebecker), and in French, un(e) Québécois(e), the latter also sometimes used in English.

Quebec has also tried to succeed a few times. They never get enough votes though.
