Canadian Citizenship Practice Test 2026

Question: 1 / 1030

What were the people in the British renamed colony of the 'Province of Quebec' in the 1700s called?

Canadiens or habitants

Canadien and habitant are two distinct terms used to refer to the inhabitants of the British colony of the 'Province of Quebec' during the 1700s. These terms are linked to the primarily French-descended population of the territory. Option B is incorrect because it does not accurately reflect the specific population of this colony. Option C is also incorrect, as French Loyalists would typically refer to people from France who remained loyal to the British crown during the American Revolution. Option D is incorrect because the people from the 'Province of Quebec' were not considered Empire Nationals, as the territory was not a part of the British Empire at the time.
