Quebec is one of the thirteen provinces and territories of Canada. Located in Central Canada, the province shares land borders with Ontario to the southwest, Newfoundland and Labrador to the northeast, New Brunswick to the southeast, and a coastal border with Nunavut; it also borders the U.S. states of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont and New York to the south.
Quebec is the largest province by area, at 1,542,056 km2 (595,391 sq mi), and the second-largest by population. Much of the population live in urban areas along the St. Lawrence River, between the most populous city, Montreal, and its capital city, Quebec City.
Quebec is also the home of Québécois, recognized as a nation by both the provincial and federal governments.
These amazing photos of Quebec in the 1960s were taken by
