Trois-Rivières (Quebec, Canada) was home to one of Canada's earliest Jewish communities, formed as early as the second half of the eighteenth century by British Jewish merchants who arrived in the wake of the Conquest (1760). Aaron Hart, a pioneering figure of Canadian Judaism, settled and prospered there; his descendants played an active role in the commercial and political life of the city.
