Champlain portrait and family tale marks Canada’s father claim
John Fisher of the Council for Canadian Unity argues Champlain deserves recognition as the father of Canada. Champlain reportedly married Helene at 11 and only lived with her at 22 in Quebec. He later adopted three girls Faith Hope and Charity, but during British capture his daughters returned to tribal life. Champlain died 1635 on Christmas Day, never knowing domestic fatherhood.
