Samuel de Champlain
Samuel de Champlain was the Lt. General of New France and governor in all but name. You’d be hard pressed to find town in Quebec that doesn’t have at least a street named after him. Below are the two statues from Kiwiki Point, one of Champlain and the other of an Algonquin scout. You can also see an image of the Champlain Bridge, the last of the five bridges going upriver.
