Comedians born in Trois-Rivières

Trois-Rivières stands at the confluence of the Saint-Maurice and the St. Lawrence, midway between Montreal and Quebec City. Founded in 1634, it is one of the oldest cities in Canada, and its industrial history is closely tied to pulp and paper production, which once made it a papermaking centre of note.

Its historic old quarter draws visitors along the water, and Quebec's French-language comedy tradition keeps its theatres and festivals hosting touring humorists.François Bellefeuille was born here.
