Portuguese community
Rooted in the Plateau since the 1950s.
Overview
Portuguese immigrants arrived in large numbers from the 1950s, creating a lasting quarter along Saint-Laurent Boulevard in the Plateau, with later growth in Laval. Their imprint on the neighbourhood is still visible today.
Santa Cruz parish, the Parc du Portugal, bakeries and summer festas remain community landmarks.
