QAHN's "Spoken Heritage On-line Multimedia Initiative" will preserve and disseminate oral histories from Quebec’s English-speaking communities.
Existing oral history collections in English-speaking communities will be preserved through digitization and new oral histories will be collected. An on-line database of these collections will be launched in 2011.
Coming soon!

The Haskell Free Library and Opera House, located in Stanstead, Quebec, and Derby Line, Vermont, was constructed intentionally astride the boundary line separating Canada from the United States. Over the past century, this unusual institution has attracted visitors from all around the world.
In Canada, heritage sites may be designated nationally, provincially and municipally. The level of designation depends on the level of significance of the site. National Historic Sites must be judged to be of national significance; provincial, of provincial significance, and so on.
The Cascapedia River begins as two fast flowing streams high in the Shick Shock Mountains. The river born of these two branches flows over a series of falls and through narrow, rocky passages, and continues on through the broad valley of Cascapedia-St. Jules. It flows over a distance of 139 kilometres (87 miles) before emptying into the Bay of Chaleurs.
