	Province of Quebec, 1763-91
		By the ROYAL PROCLAMATION OF 1763, the Province of Quebec was created out of the inhabited portion of NEW FRANCE, taking the shape of a quadrilateral on each side of the St Lawrence River and stretching from Lake Nipissing and the 45th parallel to the Saint John River and Ile d'Anticosti.
		Since many of the province's inhabitants were, or had been, employed by fur-trade companies and merchants, their geographic universe was not limited to these official boundaries; it stretched westward to include the PAYS D'EN HAUT and the North-West, the source of the colony's main export.
		Although the fur trade was vital for the province and its commerce with Britain, it was not the main domestic economic activity.
