Who was Hector Fabre?

Louis-Roch-Hector Fabre was a French Canadian lawyer, journalist, diplomat, and senator.

He was appointed to the Canadian Senate on 5 February 1875 on the recommendation of Alexander Mackenzie. Sitting as a Nationalist, he represented the senatorial division of La Salle, Quebec until his resignation on 12 July 1882.

Following his resignation from the Senate, Fabre was appointed Canada's first General Agent in Paris, a position he would occupy until his death in 1910. This appointment marked one of the first diplomatic postings in Canadian history.
