No recorded challenge is not proof of accuracy. A challenge under review is not a finding that the record is false.
In Discover Canada, Central Canada means Ontario and Quebec. The Great Lakes–St. Lawrence corridor, manufacturing, services, cultural life and the two provinces’ different linguistic histories are central study themes.

Québec City is Quebec’s capital, while Montréal is a major metropolitan centre. The guide highlights French-speaking culture, the St. Lawrence settlement corridor, hydroelectricity, forestry, aerospace and pharmaceuticals.
