    According to Wikipedia, the latitude of Charlevoix is only 47° north (about the same as Paris). I've lived at 56° north all my life and never once seen aurora borealis ... Commented Sep 24, 2019 at 13:20
  • Note that the visibility of the aurora isn't constant with respect to latitude - in particular, since it's centered around the magnetic pole, it's often visible at lower latitudes in North America.

  • @HenningMakholm Did you get a chance to see the link in the answer below? Charlevoix is colored in green, but not Paris.
