'''Cadet Summer Training Centre HMCS ''Québec''''' (CSTC HMCS ''Québec'') is a [[Royal Canadian Sea Cadets]] summer training centre, more commonly known by its French language name as '''le Centre d'instruction d'été des cadets de la Marine NCSM ''Québec''''' (CIEC NCSM ''Québec'').
==History==
The unit derives its name from {{warship|HMCS|Quebec|C66}}.
The cadet summer training centre was founded in [[Farnham, Quebec|Farnham]] in 1976 as CSTC HMCS ''Québec'' by Commander Émilien Paradis. His dream was to see the creation of a cadet summer training centre for [[Royal Canadian Sea Cadets]] in the province and offering a [[French language#Legal status in Canada|Francophone]] training programme for its members. HMCS ''Québec'' remains the only CSTC for Francophone sea cadets.
CSTC HMCS ''Québec'' moved in 1981 from Farnham to the [[Sainte-Angèle-de-Laval, Quebec|Sainte-Angèle-de-Laval]] sector of [[Bécancour, Québec]], on the south shore of the [[St. Lawrence River]] opposite [[Trois-Rivières, Québec|Trois-Rivières]]. HMCS ''Québec'' offers the opportunity for young people to rise to challenges with all activities planned and supervised by approximately 100 staff, including officers of the [[Cadet Instructor Cadre]] of the [[Canadian Forces]], civilian instructors, non-commissioned members of the Canadian Forces, and about 120 senior Staff Cadets.
