Jacques de Lafontaine de Belcour was a French entrepreneur who was involved in various business ventures in New France such as trading with the Indians and hunting seals and whales. He became involved in various disputes and earned a reputation for being untrustworthy, but was supported by the governor of the colony.
He went bankrupt in 1754, a few year before the British captured Quebec in the Battle of the Plains of Abraham.
