Transcript

The culture of France has been shaped by geography, profound historical events, and by foreign and internal forces.

Pierre Clement Dit Lariviere

Religion:

The majority of France's population is Roman Catholic while others are Protestant, Jewish, or Muslim.

Born: 1665 - in France

Died: October 11, 1725 - in Quebec

Values and Relationships:

- Family is the social adhesive of the country. Families have few children, but parents take their role as guardians and providers very seriously.

- Despite being know as romantics, they have a practical approach to marriage. Which means they don't randomly get hitched.

- The French are private people and have different rules of behaviour for people within their social circle and those who are not.

Pierre Clement Dit Lariviere

(of the River)

Married: Marie Catherine Przeau in 1702

Food is one of the great passions of the French. It varies by region and is heavily influenced by what is grown locally.

French cuisine is among the richest and most diverse in the world; its techniques and traditions have influenced chefs everywhere.

Pierre, Marie, and their 10 children came to Canada by boat and they stayed in Eastern Canada in Quebec.

Married to: Catherine

At this time, there were lots of people with the last name 'Clement' and they weren't all related. SO to tell them apart they added onto their surnames.

Occupation: Maintenance Supervisor of Steam and Recovery High Pressure.

Hobbies: Wood working, boat building, stonemason.

Jean Baptiste Clement

Born: May 19, 1722

Gerald Barnes

The Story About the Wolves

George used to work for a logging company and in those days it was normal for people to walk to work.

One day he was on his usual path when some wolves took interest and started chasing him. He started running and running and eventually he made it home but he ended up dying there of exhaustion which isn't a quick death.

Family History

Gerald's ancestors came from Ireland. They were wanted because they were trying to overthrow the government. And with that reason, they fled. His first ancestor landed in Boston in 1800 - which is the year the Acts of Union was accepted. His name was John Barnes and his son was born August 24th in 1810, named Charles. He was born in Boston, Massachusetts.

Charles went to Quebec and married a French woman who was also Catholic. They then had a son named George Barnes. He was born June 18th,1844 in Papineau, Quebec. He was chased by wolves and died of exhaustion and is buried in Massey, Ontario. Before his passing he had a son named John on June 29th,1904; this was Gerald's father.

Married to: Monique Pilon

April 20, 1934 which is National Pot Day.

He drove a motorcycle until he had to give up his license when he turned 80.

At the time, most people were loggers so chances are that Jean was too.

Started working at the age of 12.

He never fought in any war.

He's been married once before my Nana - he's my dad's stepfather.

Joachim Clement

Born: August 21, 1762 in Pointe-Claire, Quebec

Married to: Gosephte Geamme

Ronald Clement

He was most likely a logger too.

Born - December 20, 1940

Died - September 20, 2013

According to my Nana, he did nothing.

Paul Harvey Clement

Born - May 25, 1964

Throughout his life he has been a pizza chef, a paramedic, a commando officer, and is currently a carpenter.

He was the first one in his family to live in Western Canada. The reason for that is my mom.

My mom's father wanted to travel every direction of Canada (East, West, North, and South). He died before he was able to travel out West so my mom continued his expedition. She left Ontario with my dad because he said he knew some areas in B.C. When they were coming through, they broke down near Squamish and they used all their traveling money' to fix the truck.

So they got jobs in Squamish and the plan was to make enough to travel back home. They loved the B.C. life and stayed a year then traveled back to Espanola, Ontario. They missed the life in B.C. so they returned and had a baby. They followed my Uncle Patrick (Patty) to Calgary to work in his business. They hated the weather so they moved back to Squamish because my mom missed it so much. They then had a second child and stayed for about two more years.

During that time my mom became pregnant with her third child. Before she was born, my dad had an opportunity to buy my Uncle Patty's business called 'Yawbus Pizza' in Kelowna. We've lived here ever since.
