The Urban agglomeration of La Tuque is an urban agglomeration in Quebec, in Canada, that consists of:
- the city of La Tuque,
- the municipality of La Bostonnais,
- the municipality of Lac-Édouard.
The actual agglomeration[clarification needed] comprises the elements of the redefined city of La Tuque as it existed after amalgamation on March 26, 2003, including the two municipalities that chose to de-merge on January 1, 2006.
It differs from the census division of La Tuque in that the census division contains an additional three Indian reserves, namely: Coucoucache, Wemotaci, and Obedjiwan.
History
| This section may be confusing or unclear to readers. (May 2020) |
The agglomeration of La Tuque succeeded to the regional county municipality of Haut-Saint-Maurice, which was created in 1982 from part of the Quebec ridings's (county's) of Champlain electoral district, of Quebec electorial district of Saint-Maurice and of Abitibi. Le Haut-Saint-Maurice was dissolved during the merger of all municipalities in 2003 to create the city of La Tuque. Following the referendum on recreating La Bostonnais and Lac-Édouard, the agglomeration of La Tuque was created to allow municipalities to manage in common some competencies.
