Port au Choix
Port au Choix or Port aux Choix is a town in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador.
== History ==
The earliest European presence in Port au Choix dates to the 16th century when the town received its name, Portuchoa (''Portutxoa''), meaning "the little port" from Basque fishermen who operated in the area. The town's original European residents were mainly descendants of French and English fishermen who settled in the area after 1904 when France relinquished its rights to fish, and for the first time permanent settlement was allowed. Under the Treaty of Utrecht of 1713, the French were given exclusive rights to fish in an area known as The French Shore, which this area is part of. At Point Riche, The French Shore Treaty monument is erected to commemorate this historic event in Newfoundland history.
