Welcome Quebec!

Starting today, Lenders and Borrowers from Quebec can now participate in the CommunityLend online lending system.  In honour of this momentous occasion, the team here at Communitylend have assembled a few fun facts on this great Canadian province:

About Quebec – Did you know?

• Quebec is Canada’s largest province by land mass and it’s second largest by Population with 7.5 million residents
• Quebec’s forest covers more than 750,000 km2, which is the size of Sweden and Norway together. It represents 20% of the Canadian forests and 2% of the world’s forests.
• The Château Frontenac in Quebec City is the most photographed hotel in the world.
• In Montréal that you can see the highest inclined tower in the world : the Olympic Stadium tower.
• Quebec contains more than 3% of the world’s fresh water reserves.
• That Quebec’s electric wiring network is one of the longest of the North American continent? It is made of more than 30,000 kilometres of high-voltage cables, to which is added 100,000 kilometres of supply wires that go all the way to the consumers. If we were to put all the wires end to end, they could go three times around the Earth at the Equator.

Welcome!
