Lake Saint-Charles, Lower Canada
Since the late 17th century, Lake Saint-Charles, north of Québec City, has been a popular destination for the Huron-Wendat community, who call it Tiora Datuec, or “the shining lake.” This lake was once prime hunting and fishing grounds. Dating back more than 4,000 years, sites of archaeological interest have been found all around the lake.
