The
Municipality of Baie-James was a
municipality in northern
Quebec,
Canada, which existed from 1971 to 2012. Located to the east of
James Bay, Baie-James covered 297,332.84 square kilometers of land, making it the largest incorporated municipality in Canada — only eight
unorganized territories were larger. Its territory almost entirely (about 98%) covered the administrative region of
Jamésie, although it contained less than five percent of the population. Essentially, it was the remainder of the Jamésie Territory's land after all of the major population centres were removed.
