Hi Tina....given that it IS Quebec, the translations back and forth 
Eng/Francais/English, etc! It could very well be a Scotch Bonnet, or a 
Habanero.  Don't knock all jals....out of four I bought a few days ago 
one of those suckers just about blew my head off, because I was not 
expecting it! Serves me right, I usually taste them when cutting them up 
and that time I didn't! And when my fingers started to burn a few 
minutes later, I realized my  error. I can usually eat Habs right out of 
hand, and have given check out kids fits when after being warned that 
was the hottest pepper in the world, bit a chunk outta one.  Doug in BC 
who lived in Hottawa for 10 years cross the bridge from Ull :-)!!
