  Ange was to finance important expeditions to North American waters, among them those of Giovanni Verrazzano and Jacques Cartier. Giovanni Verrazzano (1485-1528) sailed from Dieppe and traversed the east coast of North America from about Cape Fear to Newfoundland in 1524. He perished on a later expedition, murdered by Carib Indians in the Lesser Antilles in 1528. Jacques Cartier (1491-1557) was a Saint-Malo mariner who explored the Gulf of St. Lawrence in 1534 and penetrated the great river as far upstream as Hochelaga, the site of modern-day Montreal, where he encountered the Huron Indians in 1535-1536. A third expedition in 1541-1542 was an abortive attempt to establish a trading station. Cartier is regarded as the founder of Canada.

conversations.value: Advent (from the Latin, "the coming") has been observed with varying intensity since at least the fourth century. The length has changed over the centuries, the average being about four weeks, the severity of fasting and abstinence varying considerably. Today, Advent begins on the Sunday nearest November 30, the feast of St. Andrew the Apostle, and covers four Sundays. The Canon Law of 1917 abolished obligatory fasting during Advent, but many Catholics believe that Christmas trees should not be decorated until Christmas Eve, as the season beforehand is one of penitence.
  Matjes herrings are a great delicacy. Once filleted, skinned, and soaked, they can be eaten as they are, raw, simply dressed with oil and a squeeze of lemon or smothered in sour cream or crème fraîche with a little lemon or a touch of sugar, accompanied by bread or a hot boiled potato. You can keep desalted matjes herring in a jar covered with olive oil. Cut them diagonally into five-centimeter pieces or leave them whole.
