  • The struggle between the French and British in Europe continued in the New World. In 1759, after a summer-long standoff, British General James Wolfe won claim to the province during the 30-minute siege of Québec City on the Plains of Abraham. However, in 1774 the French were granted language and religion rights (see Musée de la Civilisation de Québec).
