Louis de Buade, comte de Frontenac. The count of Frontenac was the governor of New-France and protected the colony against Iroquois and the Americans at the battle of Quebec in 1690. There he shout to the Massachussets governor : "Quant à votre général, qu'il sache que je n'ai point de réponse à lui faire que par la bouche de mes canons et à coup de fusils" or "And as for your general, I have no reply other than from the mouths of my cannons and muskets".
Louis-Joseph de Montcalm. The marquis de Montcalm commanded the Fench force against the English during the Battle of Quebec of 1759. As for the general Wolfe who commanded the English force, he died during the battle.
Canadians
Louis-Joseph Papineau. Papineau was a deputy of Lower-Canada (Now know as Quebec province) and leader of the patriot party. He was one the leader of the triple nation (French, English and Irish) who fought for the liberation of Lower-Canada. A revolution that ends with royal repression by Englishmen.
