User JillandJack, whose recent behaviour on Wikipedia reminds me of our beloved hard banned Angelique/ DW, keeps changing the first sentence of this article. He/She/They obviously wish[es] to make it really clear to the world that Quebec is a province of Canada. Fine, this is an undeniable fact and, since not everyone can identify all 10 provinces of Canada, it is good to give this precision to our readers.
But why was this first sentence: " The Native peoples of Quebec, a province of Canada, consist of 10 Amerindian nations and the Inuit nations number 71 415 people and account for approximately 1% of Quebec's population. " changed for: " Members of the Native peoples living in the Canadian province of Quebec consist of 10 Amerindian nations and the Inuit nations number 71 415 people and account for approximately 1% of Quebec's population. ".
What's the difference? In accord with Wikipedia's conventions, the title of an article should be bolded in the first sentence/paragraph. Why should it say Native peoples living in the Canadian province of Quebec?

I want to propose that this article be renamed to First Peoples of Quebec, for several reasons. First, the new name would align nicely with the established First Nations of Canada article. However more importantly, it would be a precursor to the re-establishment of a Category:First Peoples of Quebec. JillandJack depopulated Category:Native peoples of Quebec because they felt it redundant with the articles already in Category:Canadian First Nations. Category:Canadian First Nations has about 70 articles that are not categorized further, and I think it would help the learning of those not familar with the First Peoples of Canada if the Category:Canadian First Nations branched into Categories for the First Peoples of each province. I welcome all comments, if none are received in a week then I will proceed as discussed above. Kurieeto 14:56, Mar 5, 2005 (UTC)
Does anyone know the statistics for the languages spoken by Aboriginal people in Quebec? That is, how does the Aboriginal population split along Anglophone/Francophone lines, and how many primarily speak their traditional languages? Stevecudmore ( talk) 18:58, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:Indigenous peoples in Northern Canada which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. — RMCD bot 05:32, 3 June 2017 (UTC)
Under the section regarding the Naskapis, there is a claim that is made without a citation: "however, they are often considered to be Innu living in a remote area."
An updated citation should be added for this claim or this segment should be removed entirely. There are statements made by select leaders of Innu Communities in the Cote Nord of Quebec that make this claim, however there still exists recognizable differences between the Naskapi and Innu, namely in language and geographic origin.
If no change is made in the coming weeks, I will proceed with amending it to the following: "Although there are claims that the Naskapi are part of the Innu Nation, the Naskapi are a distinct Nation within Quebec and Canada, and are recognizd as such under the Northeastern Quebec Agreement."
