Description

Like other women, the first career scientist in a Canadian university is participating in the evolution of knowledge about plants. As for the “second founder” of the Caisses populaire, he ensured the development of the beekeeping industry and maple products. In 1935, Brother Marie-Victorin's Laurentian Flora resulted from sometimes surprising investigations of our geographical and plant heritage. Thus, during the First World War, prisoners of war cleared, near Amos, an experimental farm intended for the agronomic evaluation of plants.
