The voyageurs were largely French Canadians who engaged in the transporting of furs by canoe during the fur trade years. The voyageurs were regarded as legendary, especially in French Canada. They were heroes celebrated in folklore and music. James H. Baker was once told by an unnamed retired voyageur:
"I could carry, paddle, walk and sing with any man I ever saw. I have been twenty-four years a canoe man, and forty-one years in service; no portage was ever too long for me, fifty songs could I sing. I have saved the lives of ten voyageurs, have had twelve wives and six running dogs. I spent all of my money in pleasure. Were I young again, I would spend my life the same way over. There is no life so happy as a voyageur's life!"
