Indians of
Québec
Eastern Cree, Innu,, Atikamekw, Montagnais, Naskapi,
Mingan... These names and others have been used in Eastern
Canada, comprising Quebec and the maritime provinces, to
name a variety of Algonquian speaking related peoples.
Looking at their self-designations (Innu, Irnu & Iynu),
we see that they are the same people, basically, although
their dialectal varieties may be very different. Other, non
directly related, peoples of Quebec and Eastern Coast Canada
are the Abenaki, the Mohawk, the Algonquin (Ojibwe of
Quebec) and the Micmac (and the Inuit, of course, in
northern and coastal Labrador). The indigenous people of
Quebec strongly oppose secession of the province from
Canada. They say that if Quebecois have the right to
self-determination, so do they, and therefore claim their
right to secede from Quebec in that case.

Quebeceko
indiarrak
Quebec eta ekialdeko Kanadako herri indiar gehienak
(Ekialdeko Cree, Eastern Cree, Innu, Atikamekw, Montagnais,
Naskapi, Mingan...) hizkuntza algonkiar beretsuko herriak
dira. Berentzat ematen duten izenak ere ia berdinak dira:
Innu, Irnu, Iynu; nahiz eta beren mintzairak nolabait
desberdinak izan. Eskualdeko beste herri indiar batzuk dira
Mohawk, Abenaki, Algonkin (Quebeceko Ojibweak) eta Mikmak
herriak (Inuit-ak ere bai Labrador iparraldean). Quebec-eko
herri indigeno hauek independentziaren kontra daude erabat:
Quebectar frantsesek burujabetasunerako eskubidea badaukate
Kanadatik alde egiteko, baita indiarrek ere Quebecetik alde
egiteko.
Orrialde honetan: Ekialdeko Cree,
Innu (Naskapi & Montagnais) eta
Atikamekw. Beste orri batzuetan:
Algonkin,
Mohawk,
Mikmak,
Abenaki,
Inuit, eta Euskal-Mikmak pidgin bat
(egia!)
