Explorer Samuel de Champlain arrived on the ship Don de Dieu,[1] or "Gift of God" to found Quebec in 1608.
Don de Dieu is one of three ships that set sail from France under Captain Henry Couillard [2] in the spring of 1608 to Tadoussac, from where the men, bringing the materials, reached on small boats what is now the Vieux-Québec (Canada), on July 3, 1608, date of the founding of Quebec City.[3][4][5]
The ship is remembered in the motto of Quebec City: Don de Dieu feray valoir, "I shall put God's gift to good use."
