  • The North American Martyrs, also known as the Canadian Martyrs, were eight Jesuit missionaries from Sainte-Marie among the Hurons, who were martyred in the 17th century in Canada and Upstate New York. The Martyrs are St. Jean de Brébeuf (1649), St. Noël Chabanel (1649), St. Antoine Daniel (1648), St. Charles Garnier (1649), St. René Goupil (1642), St. Isaac Jogues (1646), St. Jean de Lalande (1646), and St. Gabriel Lalemant (1649). They were each killed during the wars between the Huron and Iroquois. They had converted many of the Huron, although even among the Huron tribes they were not universally trusted. Many Huron considered them to be evil shaman who brought death and disease wherever they travelled. The Iroquois considered them legitimate targets as the missionaries were nominally allies of the Huron, and they had often helped organize resistance to Iroquois invasions. They were canonized by Pope Pius XI in 1930. The Martyrs' Shrine church in Midland, Ontario, the site of their missionary work among the Huron, and the National Shrine of the North American Martyrs in Auriesville, New York, along the Mohawk River, are dedicated to them. They are collectively patron saints of Canada, and form part of the dedication of the Canadian national church in Rome. Their feast day is celebrated on September 26 in Canada and among Traditional Roman Catholics, and on October 19 in the United States under the title of "The North American Martyrs. " The title story of Tobias Wolff's collection of short stories, In the Garden of North American Martyrs, makes substantial allusion to the torture and killing of Jean de Brébeuf and Isaac Jogues. Brian Moore's 1985 novel Black Robe, which was later made into a film, also deals extensively with the martyrs. The martyrs are the patron saints of Jesuit High School in Sacramento, where each building on the campus has been named after one of the saints, the largest of the buildings, the Jesuit Residence and Main Office, named Brébeuf hall.
  • Les martyrs canadiens étaient huit missionnaires jésuites à Sainte-Marie-au-pays-des-Hurons, qui furent tués au XVII siècle au Canada. Les martyrs sont Jean de Brébeuf, Noël Chabanel, Antoine Daniel, Charles Garnier, René Goupil, Isaac Jogues, Jean de La Lande et Gabriel Lalemant. Ils furent tués lors des guerres entre les Hurons et les Iroquois. Ils avaient converti beaucoup de Hurons, même si une partie des Hurons leur était hostile souhaitant conserver ses traditions. Les Iroquois les considéraient comme des cibles légitimes car ils se posaient en alliés des Hurons, et ils avaient aidé ceux-ci à résister aux invasions iroquoises. Ils furent canonisés par le pape Pie XI en 1930. Le sanctuaire des martyrs à Midland en Ontario, le site de leur action missionnaire auprès des Hurons, leur est dédié. Ils sont collectivement des saints patrons du Canada. Cinq paroisses et une municipalité du Québec commémorent les martyrs canadiens.
  • Con il titolo di santi martiri canadesi la Chiesa Cattolica designa un gruppo di otto missionari (sei sacerdoti e due religiosi professi) della Compagnia di Gesù di origine francese uccisi dagli indiani Irochesi mentre svolgevano il loro ministero presso di loro e gli Uroni tra il 1642 e il 1649, nel corso della guerra fra quei due popoli. Questi i loro nomi: Giovanni (Jean) de Brébeuf Gabriele (Gabriel) Lalemant Antonio (Antoine) Daniel Carlo (Charles) Garnier Natale (Noel) Chabanel Renato (René) Goupil Isacco (Isaac) Jogues Giovanni (Jean) de la Lande Proclamati beati da papa Benedetto XV il 21 giugno 1925, vennero canonizzati il 29 giugno 1930 da papa Pio XI. La loro memoria liturgica ricorre il 19 ottobre. Fu la devozione popolare a riunire in un unico gruppo gli otto missionari gesuiti martirizzati nella Nuova Francia e a coniare per loro il nome di "martiri canadesi". La chiesa rispettò tale indicazione beatificandoli e canonizzandoli tutti insieme. Tuttavia oggi questa denominazione solleva qualche obiezione dal momento che i confini statali non corrispondono più a quelli del XVII secolo e pertanto Goupil, Jogues e de la Lande subirono il martirio nell'attuale territorio statunitense mentre gli altri cinque in quello canadese. Di conseguenza, negli Stati Uniti la denominazione più diffusa è quella di "martiri nordamericani" e talvolta addirittura "martiri americani"; del resto nella liturgia cattolica della loro commemorazione si parla di "borealibus Americae regionibus".
  • De heilige Martelaren van Noord-Amerika, ook genoemd de Canadese Martelaren en Martelaren van Nieuw Frankrijk zijn zes Jezuïeten en twee helpers, die in het gebied rond de Grote Meren en de Saint Lawrencerivier, de marteldood stierven tussen 1642 en 1649. Hun namen zijn: Johannes de Brébeuf S.J. Isaäk Jogues S.J. Gabriël Lalemant S.J. Antonius Daniel S.J. Carolus Garnier S.J. Noël Chabanel S.J. Renatus Goupil Johannes de la Lande. Na de ontdekking van Amerika in 1492 waren de Jezuïeten er sinds 1536 werkzaam rond de Grote Meren en de Saint Lawrencerivier. Die gebieden behoorden toe aan de moeilijk te bekeren Irokezen en de Huronen. Zij werden in 1940 heilig verklaard en uitgeroepen tot de beschermheilige van Canada. Zij waren de eerste martelaren van Noord-Amerika. Hun feestdag is op 19 oktober.
