Mascouche, Municipality in Les Moulins region, Canada

Mascouche extends across 107 square kilometers of land in southern Quebec, featuring residential areas alongside the Mascouche River and commercial districts.

The municipal territory received official recognition on June 8, 1845, transforming from Saint-Henri-de-Mascouche into a city status under mayor Gilles Forest in 1970.

The name originates from Algonquin language 'maskutchew', translating to 'bear plain', representing the native heritage of this Quebec territory.

The city connects to Montreal through the Mascouche station on the metropolitan rail network and sits at the intersection of Autoroutes 640 and 25.

L'Étang-du-Grand-Coteau urban park occupies a central position along Mascouche Boulevard, matching Mount Royal Park's dimensions in Montreal.
