About Quebec

The term 'Quebec,' originating from an Algonquian word signifying "where the river narrows," initially described the narrowing of the St. Lawrence River near what is now the City of Quebec. Quebec stands as the largest among Canada's 10 provinces, ranking second only to Ontario in total population. Throughout its history, Quebec has been known by various names, including Canada, New France, Lower Canada, and Canada East.

“Quebec City is the capital city of the Canadian province of Quebec.”

The prominent cities in Quebec province are:

• Montréal
• Laval
• Terrebonne
• Gatineau
• Longueuil
• Trois-Rivières
• Saguenay
• Lévis

Quebec, possessing increased autonomy in choosing newcomers to the province, distinguishes itself as the sole Canadian province not participating in the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP). Consequently, the province operates its own Immigration Program.
