A trickle of artisans came to <a href="/wiki/New_France" title="New France">New France</a> before the 1750s. In the mid-19th century there were enough arrivals to open part-time consulates in Montreal, Quebec City and Halifax. After 1859 the main attraction was free farm land. After 1867 the national government gave immigrants from Belgium preferred status, and encouraged emigration to the Francophone <a href="/wiki/Catholicism" class="mw-redirect" title="Catholicism">Catholic</a> communities of <a href="/wiki/Quebec" title="Quebec">Quebec</a> and <a href="/wiki/Manitoba" title="Manitoba">Manitoba</a>. <a href="/w/index.php?title=%C3%89douard_Simaeys&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Édouard Simaeys (page does not exist)">Édouard Simaeys</a> became a part-time paid Canadian agent in Belgium to publicize opportunities in Canada and facilitate immigration. The steamship companies prepared their own brochures and offered package deals to farm families. By 1898 there was a full-time Canadian office in Antwerp which provided pamphlets, lectures and specific travel advice. By 1906 some 2,000 Belgians a year were arriving, most with skills in agriculture. A third wave of immigration took place after 1945, with urban areas the destination. The 1961 census counted 61,000 Canadians of Belgian ancestry.<sup id="cite_ref-15" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Belgian_Club_002.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f6/Belgian_Club_002.jpg/220px-Belgian_Club_002.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="147" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f6/Belgian_Club_002.jpg/330px-Belgian_Club_002.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f6/Belgian_Club_002.jpg/440px-Belgian_Club_002.jpg 2x" data-file-width="5396" data-file-height="3597" /></a><figcaption>The <a href="/w/index.php?title=Club_Belge&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Club Belge (page does not exist)">Club Belge</a> in <a href="/wiki/Saint_Boniface,_Winnipeg" class="mw-redirect" title="Saint Boniface, Winnipeg">Saint Boniface, Winnipeg</a>, Manitoba founded in 1905</figcaption></figure> <p>Belgian immigration to <a href="/wiki/Western_Canada" title="Western Canada">Western Canada</a> in the late 19th and early 20th century attracted the attention of the Belgian government. It enacted laws and regulations to protect the emigrants and guarantee adequate travel conditions. Provision was made to assist emigrants who decided to return to Belgium. Starting in the 1860s consular officials made on-site visits to inspect conditions in Canada, which eagerly welcomed the new arrivals. The Catholic church was likewise welcoming, and a number of priests emigrated. The <a href="/wiki/Walloons" title="Walloons">Walloon</a> immigrants discovered they could continue to speak French in Canada, while the <a href="/wiki/Flemish_people" title="Flemish people">Flemish</a> quickly learned English. The Belgians formed no national organizations but they were active in local affairs. Some settled in towns such as <a href="/wiki/Saint_Boniface,_Manitoba" class="mw-redirect" title="Saint Boniface, Manitoba">Saint Boniface, Manitoba</a>, but most became farmers who specialized in dairy farming, sugar beets and market gardening.
