Population Distribution In The Province
During the late 20th century, people started to leave the farmlands as the industrious age started expanding. Now eighty percent of the Quebec's population started to live in the cities. Throughout the years, people just kept on departing the rural areas to have a better life. Also, the city dwellers who preferred to have a life that has more quality and relaxing, they moved into the suburbs. Now most of the fertile lands were used for houses in the suburbs.
Development Of The Regions
Throughout that period of time, the government was trying to not just attract more immigrants, but to keep others from emigrating. They started opening up lands for the people to make a nice living with the opportunity to grow some products. Thus the population in Saguenay Lac St. Jean, Bas St. Laurent, and Temiscamingue with the Laurentians and Abitibi started to increase during the 19th century. Even during the economic crisis in the 1930s, Quebec was open to all unemployed people to live in any land they want. Then after the second World War, Quebec started to focus more on the natural resources such as mining and hydroelectricity. The hydroelectric work sites were Nord-du-Quebec and Cote-Nord. Abitibi-Temiscamingue and Gaspesie were where they took care of the mining.
