Combining historical, cultural and industrial sites, this tour may be a perfect panoramic way to see Baie-Comeau's highlights.
You will learn about Baie-Comeau's big heart, strong character, and hearty souls who live in this remote paradise. Robert R. McCormick — American lawyer, businessman and anti-war activist — founded Baie-Comeau and built a pulp and paper factory in 1937 to supply the Chicago Tribune.
Step inside Saint Amelie's Church, built from Quebec's North Shore pink granite. It is home to more than 16,000 square feet of fresco paintings — five times more than the Sistine Chapel. The area's rich religious and cultural heritage comes to light as your guide describes life in this small corner of Canada.
