I don't think you will find Michillimackinac in Quebec.If my maps and memory serve me well this place isn't too far from Mackinac Island in northern Michigan not too far from Sault Ste. Marie in Ontario.Lots of french-speaking persons from Ontario and Quebec went south of the border in this area.The courier-de-bois used these waterways as their highways. These voyageurs most often started their trips from the Montreal area where the major fur-trade headquarters were in those days.
