Gala Dinner at the Québec Parliament Building, home of the National Assembly of Québec
The National Assembly of Quebec is the legislative body of the Canadian province of Quebec. The present Parliament Building was designed by architect Eugène-Étienne Taché and has been the home of the provincial parliament since 1886. Its Second Empire architectural style is unique among legislative buildings in Canada, where this style never reached the same level of popularity it enjoyed in continental Europe and the United States during the same period. Its façade features a pantheon representing important events and people in the history of Quebec.
