Historic Quebec 1940s 

Quebec city is still one of favorite tourist destinations in Canada. Americans too are visiting today as they did back then. Video is another great piece of history from Travel Film Archive.

grew up there. spent 30 out of 53 years there. I just celebrated the new year at Place Dufferin inside the Chateau Frontenac with my mother. We had the famous afternoon tea service with scones and the tower of snacks. The decor inside and the view from the large windows was magnificent. An old lady was playing jazz versions of old pop songs on the piano very well. Everyone was dressed elegantly and was beautiful. So even though it's an expensive proposition, it's worth it at least once to share with your loved ones.

This is my hometown I live in quebec kudos 👋👋👋

Qubec City is soooo beautiful I've been there. Tres enchanteeeee

Nice video !!!

I LOVE Quebec City

c'est dommage qu'elle ne soit pas libre (elle et toute sa province)

Why did you cut the recording all of a sudden while the commentator was talking. You have obviously cut this archive document short.

Le Québec est un pays magnifique , et oui j ai bien dit PAYS

@hypersite YES ! un jour un jour ^^

Montréal et Québec, mes deux villes préférées au monde! My two favorites cities in the world! Que de charme et de beauté: Le mouvement, le changement, la distraction, la nouveauté en constante mutation qu'est Montréal! Le calme serein, la beauté ancienne de Québec! Ces deux villes ont bien entendu leurs défauts, mais je ne saurais m'éloigner longtemps de mes chéries :)

The farmer is spraying some nice DDT on his crops at 3:05

Comme disait une de mes tantes en entendant ces champs "On veut etre libre", Ces maudits fous, on a toujours été libre ici !

Having known Quebec for the better part of my life, I can tell you that most of the commentary doesn't match the sites depicted.

"By some 7th century sailors"?

@zensorship :D thx men ^^ and i hope someday Quebec will be a Country ^^ ( im Quebecois) im so prouf of oru story ^^

In a world dominated by the English language, Québec may be better off within Canada where official bilingualism ensures some degree of the French language is promoted to three oceans and over the northern half of the continent. Long live Québec, long live Canada. May the friendship and respect continue.

Quebec is my favorite country and they have the best national anthem 🤫🙄😙

The thing is it's not "Quebec" in french, it's "Québec", thus is said "kay-beck". After all, a french-speaking nation deserves to pronounce it's name in it's own language, don't you think?

It's the cradle of North American civilization actually

That's not the way most Quebeckers see it.

I cringe every time he says Qweebeck.

québec a été un pays maintenant une simple province on n'a jamais signé la constitution canadian y"a 2 capital in canada une a québec une principal en ontario mais québec a toujour été francais et anglais et nous resteront une nation billingue 4ever et oui on n'a su se démarquer par nos innovation Québec power ECONOMIC

actually Americas means everything. America means USA

Ah yes, Quebec. Its a country unto itself. And to every self respecting Canadian born citizen, it SHOULD BE its own country! My Canada disincludes Quebec! (oh and for those frenchies over there, its said "kweh-beck". Otherwise the monarch in England would be known as the "k-een")

wow the fake native danse is so shameful lol and the outfit of the girls.

Montreal is even better.
