Amicale de l'Artillerie

Hello everyone,

Amicale

On August 1, 1899, Canada’s first Francophone artillery unit was founded. However, there have been artillery soldiers in the Quebec–Chaudière-Appalaches region for nearly 400 years. Would you be interested in attending a social gathering to catch up with friends and reminisce about exploits, adventures, and the delightful odour of burnt gun powder made of nitrocellulose and nitroglycerine (cordite)?

The Amicale de l’Artillerie is a social event for artillery soldiers and members of other occupations in the Quebec–Chaudière-Appalaches region, and it has been held for nearly ten years running. The Amicale de l’Artillerie gives people the chance to reunite, relax and have fun by taking part in activities, dinners and other events. We are also envisaging new projects, such as support for deployed soldiers and their families.

We look forward to meeting you and sharing a glass of wine.

Best regards,

Paulin Roland
Chair of the Amicale de l’Artillerie
