Do not fill this in! ===Acadians=== The subject of {{ill|Acadians in Quebec|fr|Acadiens au QuĂ©bec}} is an important one as more than a million people in Quebec are of [[Acadians|Acadian]] descent, with roughly 4.8 million people possessing one or multiple Acadian ancestors in their genealogy tree, because a large number of Acadians had fled [[Acadia]] to take refuge in Quebec during the [[Great Upheaval]]. Furthermore, more than a million people have a [[patronym]] of Acadian origin.<ref>{{Cite web|title=QuĂ©bec|url=http://snacadie.org/content/view/106/130/|accessdate=December 7, 2009|publisher=SociĂ©tĂ© nationale de l'Acadie}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|year=1998|title=L'Acadie du QuĂ©bec - Du 29 mars au 31 mai 1998|url=http://www.teleco.org/museeacadien/francais/expopre2.html|accessdate=December 7, 2009|publisher=TĂ©lĂ©communautĂ© insulaire francophone|archive-date=October 13, 2008|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081013014454/http://www.teleco.org/museeacadien/francais/expopre2.html|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|first=Adrien|last=Bergeron|year=2000|title=HĂBERT, ĂTIENNE|url=http://www.biographi.ca/009004-119.01-f.php?&id_nbr=2928&&PHPSESSID=ychzfqkvzape|accessdate=December 7, 2009|publisher=Dictionnaire biographique du Canada en ligne en collaboration avec l'UniversitĂ© de Toronto et l'UniversitĂ© Laval}}</ref><ref>{{cite book|last1=HĂ©bert|first1=Pierre-Maurice|title=Les Acadiens du QuĂ©bec|date=1994|publisher=Ăditions de L'Ăcho|isbn=2-920312-32-4|volume=427|language=fr}}</ref> Quebec houses Acadian communities. Acadians mainly live on the [[Magdalen Islands]] and in [[Gaspesia]], but about thirty other communities are present elsewhere in Quebec, mostly in the [[CĂŽte-Nord]] and [[Centre-du-QuĂ©bec]] regions. An Acadian community in Quebec can be called a "Cadie", "Petite Cadie" or "Cadien".<ref>{{cite book|last1=Arsenault|first1=Samuel|title=L'Acadie des Maritimes : Ă©tudes thĂ©matiques des dĂ©buts Ă nos jours|last2=Lamarche|first2=Rodolphe|last3=Daigle|first3=Jean|date=1993|publisher=[[:fr:Centre d'Ă©tudes acadiennes Anselme-Chiasson|Centre d'Ă©tudes acadiennes, UniversitĂ© de Moncton]]|isbn=2921166062|volume=Les gĂ©ographes et l'amĂ©nagement des structures spatiales}}</ref> Summary: Please note that all contributions to Christianpedia may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors.
