Description

One of the Most Marvelous Island in the world protected by UNESCO French link: http://ile-anticosti.com/ English link: http://www.mysteriesofcanada.com/Quebec/anticosti_island.htm Anticosti Island is situated right at the mouth of the St. Lawrence River. Some 8,000 square kilometres in size, Anticosti Island is large enough to have Prince Edward Island for lunch with room left over for a dessert of half of PEI again. Now that's big. It is very sparsely populated (264 people in 1991), with most residents concentrated in the village of Port-Menier on the western tip of the island. It was discovered by Jacques Cartier in 1534, and was granted to Louis Joliet by Louis XIV as a reward for discovering the Mississippi River. It stayed in Joliet's family until 1763, when it was annexed by the British colony of Newfoundland. Lower Canada regained it in 1774. It supported timber harvests until 1972, and is now an important site for deer hunting.
