Chrestien Le Clercq, O.M.R., (born 1641) was a Recollect Franciscan friar and missionary to the Mi'kmaq on the Gaspé peninsula of Canada in the mid-17th century.
[1] A Fleming by birth, Le Clercq joined the Recollect Province of St. Anthony, based in Artois.
On 11 October of that year, he was put in charge of the Micmac mission by Francois de Laval, the Bishop of Quebec.
In autumn 1686 Le Clercq left Canada permanently and returned to France, where he filled various positions of authority in the Artois Province of his Order.
An English translation of one of these works, Nouvelle Relation de la Gaspesie, was provided by William F. Ganong in 1910 as part of the Champlain Society's General Series.
