He was a French-Canadian who saved Montreal from the Iroquois in 1 In the early days the settlement of Montreal was the outpost the colony of New France. In the s ring of 1660, news came to the ittle wilderness village of Montreal that the Iro. quois were about to destroy the entire settlement. In order_ to thwart the plans of the 1111118118,.
