Nord-du-Québec, Administrative region in northern Quebec, Canada
Nord-du-Québec extends across 860,692 square kilometers of Canadian Shield territory, bordered by Hudson Bay, James Bay, Hudson Strait, and Ungava Bay.
The territory belonged to the Northwest Territories Ungava District until 1912, when it was transferred to Quebec and remained known as Nouveau-Québec until 1987.
The region contains 3,644 archaeological sites of First Nations origin and maintains strong Indigenous presence with Cree and Inuit communities representing 68.5% of the population.
Transportation relies primarily on air travel and limited road networks connecting communities in Jamésie, with most settlements accessible only by plane or boat.
Nord-du-Québec encompasses three distinct territories: Kativik in the north, Eeyou Istchee for Cree communities, and Jamésie with its extensive boreal forest.
Location: Quebec
Shares border with: Abitibi-Témiscamingue, Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean, Côte-Nord, Mauricie, Labrador, Nunavut, Ontario
