No Saint Too Obscure

If you have ever looked at a map of Quebec you will have been struck by their town names. They are all named after saints you have never heard of. I have a theory that somewhere in the wilderness of Quebec there is a black pope on a throne of skulls, creating his minions saints, and setting them up as lieutenants over their eponymous villages. How else can you explain:

St. Polycarpe
St. Zotique
St. Colomban
St. Athanase
St. Amable
St. Chrysostome
St. Redempteur
St. Telesphore
St. Calixte
and my favorite, St. Hyacinthe.
