The Mayor’s Levee is a tradition that dates back to the 17th century, during the reign of King Louis XIV. To show that the monarch belonged to the people, the King would invite gentlemen to his bedroom on New Year’s Day to watch him wake up and begin serving the public. The Royal Governor of New France later brought this custom to Canada where it continues to be a new year’s tradition.
