The sound of the province
French-language commercial stations in Quebec must give most of their vocal music to French songs, so the chanson of Félix Leclerc and Gilles Vigneault and today's Québécois pop keep a place on air alongside Céline Dion. Montreal radio, Canadian radio and French radio go further.
