Illa de Saint-Quentin

L'illa de Saint-Quentin és una illa situada a la confluència del riu Saint Maurice i el riu Saint-Laurent, a la ciutat de Trois-Rivières, a la província de Quebec. El nom es deu al jutge Quentin Moral, comerciant de pells i un dels primers concessionaris de l'illa. L'illa es manté com un centre d'activitats. El sant patró de l'illa es Sant Quintí.
Al principi fou poblada per una tribu algonquina que hi conreava blat de moro . El 7 d'octubre de 1535, Jacques Cartier va plantar una creu sobre l'illa fet que proclamava la sobirania francesa d'aquest territori. Al cap de cent anys, el pare Paul LeJeune descobrí unes ruïnes d'una palissada ameríndia i d'algunes vessanes on els amerindis cultivaven el blat de moro.
