Right, there was a time when Détroit, Saint-Louis, la Nouvelle-Orléans, Montréal, Québec, Trois-Rivières, and Gaspé "were all settled by the same people".
Similarly, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Santa Fe, El Paso, San Antonio, parts of Florida, and Mexico, all of Central America, most of the Caribbean, Colombia, Venezuela, Peru, Bolivia, Equador, Chile, Argentina, etc. "were all settled by the same people".
Frankly, it's nonsense to believe that this ancient common origin could be still a major factor in the character of these places a few centuries later.
