I have alot of questions about Quebec, Canada. What food did they ate? What languages they spoke?

They eat whatever they like, sort of like in the United States and the rest of Canada. The official language is French though many speak English too. I have visited Quebec, but didn't live there. They have some nice skiing.

I will help you with French if you help me with Spanish!  I am French Canadian but I lived in Uruguay for 3 years.  I'm starting to forget my Spanish but I'd like refresh and learn more.

I went to Quebec last year on an extended vacation, so I got to know what the people were like. The one thing that amazed me is that people seemed really concerned about what America thought of them. On more than a few occasions, people asked whether I thought the US would accept Quebec as a state.\n\nI think it would be hard for Quebec to go it alone, but I think they could join the US if they ever left Canada. I think a US state has more sovereignty over their own affairs than a Canadian province does, so this would give them more freedom to do what they want.

That's a broad question that is still not resolved in Quebec today.  It's the collide of two cultural identities French and English.  Before the quiet revolution French people were "opressed" by the richer and more educated English people.  French-Canadians got fed up with it and wanted to create their own nation.  They created the Parti Québécois in the province and the Bloc Québécois at the federal level to further the interests of French-CAnadians.  We actually had two referendums one in 1980 and 1995, both were lost by a small margin and another will probably take place in the future.  Anyways, if you do your own research and still have questions you can reach me at cynthia_c_croteau@yahoo.ca

Food which would not perish easily on long journies,such as smoked fish and pork,salt,coffee,flour,and corn meal.They would suppliment this by hunting wild game,and searching for wild berries along the way.Or fishing in lakes or streams.Many pioneers brought cooking traditions from their native european countries.\n \nJohnnycake a kind of cornbread, was a favorite because it didn't get spoiled on a long trip. They also ate berries,and grapes. Grinding corn was often a job of pioneer boys. They dried the meat and hung it so that it would last longer. They also ate ducks, chickens, rabbits, turkeys, fish, pigs, buffalo, dear, moose, elk, raccoon, beaver, bear, coyote, goat, eggs, bread, fruit, pie, peas, nuts, beans and carrots. They ate apples, pickles, oranges, watermelon, corn, spices, sugar, plums, strawberries, bananas, pineapples, pears, peaches, cheese, and, flour. They also ate wild oinions, butter, and blackberries. Corn was very easy to grow so it was a common food for the pioneers.

Before the Europeans arrived in what is now called North America, there were a number of indigenous peoples scattered over the land.  In the last three hundred and fifty years, many have been reduced to less than one hundred who speak their original tongue and some have become extinct, with little or no record.\n\nTo keep a culture alive. Get it recorded. Visit those old Cajuns with a recorder.  Ask questions, get them to tell stories.  Keeps notes on your work.  Who knows, in 1000 years someone will have wish that this was done now.\n\nIf you need help, get help.  The best I can do is prepare my gumbo with sassafras and crawdad.

Everyone!\n\nSince their written language was based on representing the sounds of words, regardless of the language spoken, it allowed them to quickly record the speech/meaning of words in other countries.\n\nThe page I provide whose URL I am providing should meet your hunger for any in-depth knowledge.  The countries it lists as the ones Phoenicians' traded with are:\n\nLebanon\nEgypt\nBritain\nSpain\nCypress\nMesopotamia\nAfrican coastal countries\n\nThey had cities that were colonies in many of these countries, as well as Tunisia and Sardinia.\n\nWhat they traded with was what they got from other, distant peoples.  Since these products by the very nature of their remote origin were rare - they were economically valuable.  Thus, they could be "expensive".\n\nThat allowed the traders to give less goods and get more in return. The extra capital received by them in these transactions could cover their expenses from:  travel, labor, ships, caravans, guards, robbers, tolls, negotiating, communicating, accounting/records-keeping, learning languages, etc.\n\nThe demands of mastering/employing all these skills probably forced the traders to be pretty smart.\n\nLater they got conquered by a succession of countries in the region (Iran, Greece, Macedonia).

soon after the pilgrims arrived, they ran out of food and were eating foods that were making them sick. such as skunks, buzzards, etc. the pequot people were the natives of that area. they took pity on the pilgrims and taught them what foods they could grow, and which animals they could eat. they shared seeds and animals with them to get them started. the thanksgiving feast took place in an effort to show the pilgrim ppl how to prepare the foods of the "new world."\nthe pequot ppl served the pilgrims, they did not sit side-by-side and eat together...that's a fairy tale. several days after the feast, the pilgrims attacked the pequot village and killed all the ppl living there...close to 200 men, women, and children. they took everything from the village that they could use to survive with.\n\nin my family, we refuse to celebrate this day of genocide. we just eat a regular meal...for years we used to fast on this day, to honor the pequot nation. we don't hate non-indian ppl. but we don't ever forget their hateful deeds against us, mostly in the name of christianity.\n\nthe ppl who make statements such as, "that happened hundreds of years ago. get over it." don't know the meaning of collective memory.\ntantay to all ppl (peace)

The first clue should be where they are from.  The were located along the shores of the Pacific Northwest, this would point towards seafood.  For protein it would be mostly whale meat and salmon.  For some additional help you might try http://www.makah.com

Very interesting question that I wish I had an answer for. I was always wondering the opposite sort of speak. How did the Anglo  survive in those caves up in the mountains in the earlier days? I mean they show all of this history on TV with the African man and the early stages of the white man. I'm just glad they discovered how to start a fire so that they could stay warm and could cook their food. I mean could you imagine eating raw meat 24-7?

Yes, there is still tension. The constitution problem is still not resolved. (The constitution was signed by the provinces without Quebec) Also, many quebecois are in favor of independence.

Most of my ancestors came here from Switzerland.They came here because they were being persecuted in their country because of their religion.One of my ancestors actually had his tongue cut out because he was preaching a religion not allowed.They were Mennonites.
