As a Québec City resident who has lived here for more than half of his life, I have to say that your video does not go into the usual stereotypes of other videos (French accordion music, showing only the top touristic places, etc.). The fact that you have learned French show your openness to our culture. (Btw, for any masculine “saint” in French, we do not pronounce the final “t” except if the saint name starts with a vowel. And “Roch” is actually pronounced like “rock”. Therefore “sain rock”. Otherwise, you are doing great! ⚜)

Man, I love French Canada. Needs to stay French. It's a hidden gem that has character. Hope to visit QB City one day. I love the French culture. Keep that Euro feel alive and much love to Canada as a whole.

I lived in Quebec City when I was studying at Laval University. Best years of my life

Very charming, the two young ladies interviewed. Tabarnak 😂

I am Quebecois and proud of my 25% Irish blood.
my grandmother's great-grandfather arrived here in 1848 during the great famine.

From a resident of the city of Québec, thank you, this is a most respectful video.

Was in Quebec this summer and it was my first time visiting Quebec in the summer. I already seen it during winter time, river looks particularly fantastic in winter, but in summer it truly turns into a fairytale town!!! I was impressed how alive the city was and how different it is from the rest of Canada. It felt as if people were truly enjoying life. I'm visiting Canada from Europe and if I ever want to move here - I'd love to move to Quebec City

I was visiting Quebec City when you were there and I talked to you very quickly when I saw you on the street! You were extremely nice and I want to thank you for filming all the different parts of this beautiful city!!!

Traditional music in Quebec traces its roots to Brittany and Poitou, first and foremost. The former, being an ancient Celtic region/nation, has a musical tradition not too dissimilar from Ireland and share many of the same instruments (and tunes!).

Later on, especially in the 19th century, Irish (and, to a lesser extent, Scottish) music also had an influence on Quebec's traditional music.

Glad you had a good time in Quebec City and I'm happy to see you discovering the rest of Quebec a bit more. You're very welcome and your curiosity really shines in your videos.

[mrzhooly]

the fact you spat the name of the festival in french trying multiple times: respect brother ! welcome to quebec !

[sebastien-zfcc]

Thank you for showing my home town. This is definitely a nice place to live and grow.
I hope you will come back!

[TradeLewt]

Merci pour le video Dan, toujours interessant de te voir decouvrir le Quebec 🐢

[ralf]

Thanks, you did justice to the oldest city in North America! It look very good in your camera lens.

[nominou]

Many of the people in Québec are from Bretagne (Brittany) in France which is Celtic in nature. So while there are Irish influences in the traditional music, there are also Celtic roots.

By the way there are large differences between :

du Québec (province)
de Québec (city)
à Québec (city)
au Québec (province)

And St-Roch is pronounced St-Rok. To have a soft 'ch' there has to be a vowel following it. ... But not always ! The French language is fun although not that easy to learn. I'm glad to have been born in it.

You made a nice comment about the 'karma' of interactions.

[whitneysmiltank]

Haha these ladies were great. Bienvenue au Québec!

[mariolafrance]

Thanks for this wonderful video. You only scratched the surface of what to do and visit in Québec City but you did a great job pointing out what makes Québec City a special city. It's clean, safe and welcoming. That said, I invite all your subscribers from all around the world to visit us. You won't regret it I swear. 🙂
