Saint-Alexis-de-Matapédia

Saint-Alexis-de-Matapédia straddles the confluence of the Matapédia and Restigouche rivers in Quebec’s Gaspésie region, a borderland position linking the Matapédia Valley with neighbouring New Brunswick. The Restigouche forms part of the Quebec–New Brunswick boundary, while the Matapédia arrives through a long, settled river valley. Both waterways are associated with Atlantic salmon and remain central to the area’s outdoor identity. This stretch of the Restigouche watershed lies within Mi’gma’gi, the traditional homeland of the Mi’gmaq. The community’s small-scale, French-speaking character contrasts with the broad forest country around it.
