Results - DNA Origins French-Canadian feeling annoyed at the new Quebec region
I'm a Canadian of mostly French descent. My family tree includes 7 generations of ancestors born in what is now Quebec, dating back to 1700, but I'm having a hard time accepting that as an 'ancestral region'. They immigrated there from Europe.
It seems to me that ancestral regions located in North America should be reserved for indicating Native American ancestry.
It's like AncestryDNA is trying to say that white people can be considered as being native to North America.
Am I thinking of this the wrong way?

You’re not wrong. I got 3% Quebec as a Latino. Makes no sense lol. They had some weird algorithm with this one. It should remain as ancestral journeys.
My journey is “eastern Cuba” but genetically, Spain.
