Paul Bunyan is a mythical lumberjack in tall tales. French Canadians gave birth to the tales during the Papineau Rebellion of 1837, when they revolted against the young English Queen. This would probably explain the origin of Bunyan's last name since "Bonyenne" is a colloquial French-Canadian expression of surprise and astonishment meaning "Good Grief" or "My Goodness".
Voyageur origins
The traditional English-French cultural border of 19th centuryCanada was the Ottawa River, main highway for the forestry industry and a centuries-old way of penetrating the immense interior of the continent, since the days of the voyageurs and fur-traders of New France.
