You’ve been wanting to try snowshoeing but don’t own a pair?
VEQ in partnership with Accès-Loisirs will take you to the Jacques-Cartier Nat’l Park to enjoy a day of winter fun!
All you need to do is email María Castro (newcomers@veq.ca) and sign up.
We only have 10 snowshoes for adults and a similar amount for children’s sizes. It is thus important that you reserve your spot!
We are providing transportation to the Jacques-Cartier National Park, so if you recently moved to the Greater Québec City region and would like to explore this place and try a new winter sport while making new friends, you only need to sign up!
We will leave from our offices (1270 chemin Sainte-Foy) at 9:00 from where we will head first to Pascal le Boulanger*, a must-stop among hikers heading to the iconic national park. At the bakery, you can get your lunch to go in case you forgot to prepare one or simply indulge with one of their famous pastries. After this quick stop, the bus will take us to the Discovery & Services Centre, situated on km 10 from the park’s entrance. Once there, you can choose the activities you would like to do, like exploring one of the many trails listed below. Please take into consideration the trail’s length and estimated duration. We will leave the park at 3:00 PM.
Every passenger is expected to follow Public Health’s recommendations regarding the prevention of the coronavirus situation. Please wear a mask at all times during the bus ride.
Click here to see the list of trails open for the season, difficulty, length, type of trail (roundtrip or loop), estimated duration (it all depends on one’s rhythm)

When learning a new language, it is inevitable to sometimes get lost in translation. My beginnings in French were quite hilarious and often embarrassing, but at least it made me giggle. I remember that at first, I used to think that the “hôtel de ville” was a hotel chain, like Marriott, Hilton, Barceló, etc. Now learning idioms and expressions is even trickier! Sometimes, the best way of learning their meaning is by simply using them, which is why VEQ in collaboration with Canadian Parents for French is organising this fun game night.
At the end of the game, the winner of the game will get a $40 gift card (from Chocolats Favoris). Another gift card will be raffled among all participants.

The moment of truth has come. You sent your CV and cover letters and now you are being called for an interview… In other circumstances, you would be relatively nervous, but you are now living in Québec City and chances are the interview will be in French, or at least part of it. No need to panic! We are collaborating with the FORT program to offer you the possibility of practicing your French interviewing skills. At the end of it, you will be better equipped in terms of what kind of questions you can expect when interviewing in French, and how to prepare your selling points in the aforementioned language. Now, if your interviews are most likely to be carried out in English, then by all means you can practice in English!
This activity is 100% free !

Where does modern surgery as we know it come from? The answer lies in history. The history of modern surgery revolves around three themes: first, the changes in the understanding of the body and its diseases; second, the development of surgical techniques, such as hemostatic forceps, anesthesia, or antisepsis; and third, the changing professional status of surgical practitioners from craftsmen to scientifically trained and specialized doctors.
Learn more during this conference broadcasted from our chemistry laboratory with Dr. Thomas Schlich and host Peter Black.

In May 2019, the Morrin Centre launched a new permanent exhibit on capital punishment in Quebec from the Conquest to 1960. Less than a year later, the pandemic restricted public access to the exhibit and the accompanying multimedia tour, a restriction which has essentially remained in place ever since. This presentation will provide a summary of the history of capital punishment in Quebec based largely on the exhibit’s content, along with new material collected since its launch.
Learn more during this conference broadcasted from our jail with Professor Donald Fyson and host Peter Black.

The poster for the play comes from an oil painting by noted local artist Miriam “Minum” Blair.
The School for Scandal, by R.B. Sheridan, was first performed in May 1777. A review of a 1995 production starring Tony Randall called the play “a superbly crafted laugh machine, and so timeless in delivering delectable comeuppance to a viper’s nest of idle-rich gossipmongers, that you’d practically have to club it to death to stifle its amazing pleasures.”
The QAC version, adapted by director Mark Lepitre and featuring a spirited cast, promises the same pleasures.
