It is among the northernmost locales with a paved connection to the rest of Quebec's road network. The population was 25,686 as of the Canada 2011 Census. The town is called Uashau, meaning "bay," in the Innu language.[4] The city is well known for having major iron companies like Iron Ore Company of Canada and the Cliffs Natural Resources. The city relies heavily on the iron industry. Sept-Îles is one of the large cities by area in the province of Québec, even more expansive than Montreal.[5] Sept-Îles has among the highest average wages and the highest average wage increases.[6] The only settlements on the paved road network that are farther north are Fermont, Radisson and Chisasibi, the latter two of which are in the extreme western part of the province at the north end of the James Bay Road. The only other settlements at higher latitudes in the province are mostly isolated Cree, Innu, or Inuit villages, with access limited to seasonal gravel roads. Sept-Îles is the seat of the judicial district of Mingan.[7] The city is also home to the most highly attended recreational sport events in the province: the Tournoi Orange. volleyball tournament, which consists of 405 teams and close to 800 volleyball games.[8] History and economyThe first inhabitants of the area were varying cultures of indigenous peoples. The historic Montagnais or Innu people, who called it Uashat ("Great Bay"), lived there at the time of European encounter. Jacques Cartier sailed by the islands in 1535 and made the first written record of them, calling them the Ysles Rondes ("Round Islands"). He was not the first European in the area, as he encountered Basque fishermen who came annually from Europe for whaling and cod fishing. Early European economic activity in Sept-Îles was based on fishing and the fur trade. Louis Joliet established trading posts by 1679. Great Britain took over Canada from France in 1763 after its victory in the Seven Years' War. In 1842 the Hudson's Bay Company founded another post at this location. The village was incorporated into a municipality in 1885. Lacking road access at the time, the town got its first pier in 1908. The City of Sept-Îles was incorporated in 1951, on the 300th anniversary of the first Catholic Mass held in the village. The modern Sept-Îles was built rapidly during the construction of the Quebec North Shore and Labrador Railway, the 357-mile (575 km) railway link to the northern town of Schefferville. The railway was built between 1950 and 1954 by the Iron Ore Company of Canada. Iron ore mined near Schefferville and Wabush, Labrador, was transported on this railway and shipped from the Port of Sept-Îles. Shipment of the important new commodity resulted in investments that turned this into a major port.[9] With the iron ore business, the Sept-Îles deep-water seaport was second in Canada only to Vancouver in terms of yearly tonnage. The huge engineering project led to a major increase in population, and housing was quickly built to accommodate them. The town grew from 2,000 inhabitants in 1951 to 14,000 in 1961, and 31,000 in 1981. The decline in worldwide iron ore prices in recent decades has since caused employment and population to decrease. During the early 1990s, some new jobs accompanied the construction and operation of the new Aluminerie Alouette inc. aluminum processing plant. Construction for Phase 1 began in September 1989, and operation started in 1992. Construction of Phase 2 began in 2003. In 2002 the city amalgamated with the communities of Gallix and Moisie. The city includes the neighbourhoods of Arnaud, Clarke, De Grasse, de la Pointe, de la Rivière, Ferland, La Boule, Lac Labrie, Matamec, Plages, Pointe-Noire and Val-Marguerite. The Sept-Îles Airport has connections all over Quebec and Labrador. General aviation seaplanes are served by Sept-Îles/Lac Rapides Water Aerodrome. Air Gaspé was based in Sept-Îles, but acquired by Quebecair in 1973. In the 1980s, continued airline restructuring led to Quebecair's being acquired by CP Air in 1986, which in turn was taken over by Canadian Airlines in 1987. GeographyLocated on the north shore of the Gulf of Saint Lawrence, between the Sainte-Marguerite and Moisie rivers, Sept-Îles lies on the shore of a deep-water bay fronted by a seven-island archipelago, about 230 kilometres east of Baie-Comeau. The bay constitutes a 45 km² natural harbour. The seven islands are named:
The archipelago is under provincial jurisdiction, with some parts administered by the federal government or by individuals. There are two First Nations reserves in the area: Uashat in the western city proper, and Maliotenam in the east near the Moisie River.

In the urban area of Sept-Îles, 2.7% of the population reported English only as mother tongue, 86.2% reported French only, and 10.3% reported only a non-official language, in 2011. In comparison, the provincial / territorial percentages were 7.7% for English only, 78.1% for French only and 12.3% for only non-official languages.[11] ClimateSept-Îles has a subarctic climate (Köppen climate classification Dfc) bordering on a humid continental climate (Dfb) despite being located at around only 50 degrees latitude. The two main seasons are summer and winter, as spring and autumn are very short transition seasons lasting only a few weeks. Winters are long, cold, and snowy, lasting from late October to late April, but milder than more inland locations, with a January high of {{convert|−9.8|C|1}} and a January low of {{convert|−20.9|C|1}}. Overall precipitation is unusually high for a subarctic climate, and snow totals correspondingly heavy, averaging {{convert|385|cm|in|0}} per season with an average maximum depth of {{convert|0.5|m|ft|1}}. Summers are mild, with a July high of {{convert|19.6|C|1}}; summers thus display stronger maritime influence than do winters. Precipitation is significant year-round, but it is lowest from January to March. The highest temperature ever recorded in Sept-Îles was {{convert|35.6|C|0}} on 15 August 1928.[19] The coldest temperature ever recorded was {{convert|-45.6|C|0}} on 29 January 1913.[20] Both of these values were recorded at Clarke City, which was the primary weather station for the area until records began at Sept-Îles Airport in September 1944.[21][12] {{Weather box| location = Sept-Îles Airport, 1981−2010 normals, extremes 1903−present{{efn|Extreme high and low temperatures were recorded in Clarke City from May 1903 to August 1944, and at Sept-Îles Airport from September 1944 to present.}} | metric first = Y | single line = Y | Jan record high C = 10.0 | Feb record high C = 10.6 | Mar record high C = 16.4 | Apr record high C = 22.8 | May record high C = 29.4 | Jun record high C = 32.2 | Jul record high C = 33.9 | Aug record high C = 35.6 | Sep record high C = 30.0 | Oct record high C = 25.6 | Nov record high C = 17.2 | Dec record high C = 9.4 | year record high C = 35.6 | Jan high C = −9.8 | Feb high C = −7.9 | Mar high C = -1.9 | Apr high C = 4.0 | May high C = 10.7 | Jun high C = 16.5 | Jul high C = 19.5 | Aug high C = 19.1 | Sep high C = 14.2 | Oct high C = 7.8 | Nov high C = 1.0 | Dec high C = -5.6 | year high C = 5.6 | Jan mean C = -15.3 | Feb mean C = -13.6 | Mar mean C = -6.8 | Apr mean C = 0.2 | May mean C = 6.2 | Jun mean C = 11.8 | Jul mean C = 15.2 | Aug mean C = 14.4 | Sep mean C = 9.8 | Oct mean C = 3.7 | Nov mean C = -2.9 | Dec mean C = -10.5 | year mean C = 1.0 | Jan low C = −20.8 | Feb low C = −19.3 | Mar low C = −11.7 | Apr low C = -3.7 | May low C = 1.7 | Jun low C = 7.0 | Jul low C = 10.8 | Aug low C = 9.8 | Sep low C = 5.3 | Oct low C = -0.4 | Nov low C = −6.7 | Dec low C = −15.3 | year low C = -3.6 | Jan record low C = −45.6 | Feb record low C = −43.3 | Mar record low C = −37.2 | Apr record low C = −26.4 | May record low C = −16.1 | Jun record low C = −7.8 | Jul record low C = -3.3 | Aug record low C = -0.7 | Sep record low C = −7.8 | Oct record low C = −18.9 | Nov record low C = −28.9 | Dec record low C = −38.3 | year record low C = −45.6 | precipitation colour = green | Jan precipitation mm = 81.7 | Feb precipitation mm = 68.6 | Mar precipitation mm = 81.3 | Apr precipitation mm = 92.1 | May precipitation mm = 86.9 | Jun precipitation mm = 99.1 | Jul precipitation mm = 104.4 | Aug precipitation mm = 84.4 | Sep precipitation mm = 108.7 | Oct precipitation mm = 104.1 | Nov precipitation mm = 109.2 | Dec precipitation mm = 99.4 | year precipitation mm = 1119.9 | rain colour = green | Jan rain mm = 8.3 | Feb rain mm = 13.9 | Mar rain mm = 24.4 | Apr rain mm = 49.2 | May rain mm = 76.7 | Jun rain mm = 99.1 | Jul rain mm = 104.4 | Aug rain mm = 84.4 | Sep rain mm = 108.7 | Oct rain mm = 98.0 | Nov rain mm = 62.4 | Dec rain mm = 18.1 | year rain mm = 747.5 | snow colour = green | Jan snow cm = 84.1 | Feb snow cm = 59.7 | Mar snow cm = 57.8 | Apr snow cm = 36.4 | May snow cm = 8.1 | Jun snow cm = 0.0 | Jul snow cm = 0.0 | Aug snow cm = 0.0 | Sep snow cm = 0.05 | Oct snow cm = 5.3 | Nov snow cm = 46.0 | Dec snow cm = 87.2 | year snow cm = 384.6 | Jan precipitation days = 16.5 | Feb precipitation days = 13.4 | Mar precipitation days = 13.7 | Apr precipitation days = 12.7 | May precipitation days = 13.8 | Jun precipitation days = 13.6 | Jul precipitation days = 16.4 | Aug precipitation days = 14.1 | Sep precipitation days = 13.7 | Oct precipitation days = 15.5 | Nov precipitation days = 14.9 | Dec precipitation days = 15.6 | year precipitation days = 173.8 | unit precipitation days = 0.2 mm | Jan rain days = 1.4 | Feb rain days = 1.6 | Mar rain days = 3.9 | Apr rain days = 7.8 | May rain days = 13.2 | Jun rain days = 13.6 | Jul rain days = 16.4 | Aug rain days = 14.1 | Sep rain days = 13.8 | Oct rain days = 14.4 | Nov rain days = 8.3 | Dec rain days = 2.7 | year rain days = 111.0 | unit rain days = 0.2 mm | Jan snow days = 16.4 | Feb snow days = 12.5 | Mar snow days = 12.4 | Apr snow days = 7.7 | May snow days = 1.7 | Jun snow days = 0.0 | Jul snow days = 0.0 | Aug snow days = 0.0 | Sep snow days = 0.1 | Oct snow days = 2.5 | Nov snow days = 9.7 | Dec snow days = 14.8 | year snow days = 77.7 | unit snow days = 0.2 cm | Jan sun = 104.0 | Feb sun = 134.4 | Mar sun = 150.8 | Apr sun = 170.1 | May sun = 223.4 | Jun sun = 221.2 | Jul sun = 240.9 | Aug sun = 220.4 | Sep sun = 154.0 | Oct sun = 131.2 | Nov sun = 93.5 | Dec sun = 93.7 | year sun = 1937.6 | source 1 = Environment Canada,[13][14] (sun 1961−1990),[15] Clarke City (1903−1944)[16][17][18] | date = August 2010 }} TourismSince 2009, Sept-Îles has been part of the Saint-Laurent destination, which has nine international cruise ports. On a larger scale, an alliance is being created with other ports in Northeastern America and Canada under the auspices of Canada New England. The international cruises in Sept-Îles are led by the non-profit organization Destination Sept-Îles Nakauinanu. The organization's mission is to enable the various public and private bodies to enjoy a permanent structure, in the form of a one-stop shop, enabling them to work jointly on the development and promotion of the City of Sept-Îles and from its surroundings to international cruise lines. The main partners involved in the development of international cruises are the City of Sept-Îles, the Port of Sept-Îles and Innu Takuaikan Uashat mak Mani-Utenam. As of 2018, more than 55,000 international visitors have visited the port of call. Cunard, P & O Cruises, Cruise and Maritime Voyages, Phoenix Reisen, Holland America Line, Oceania Cruises, Regent Seven Seas, Silversea, Saga Cruises, Crystal Cruises, Norwegian Cruise Line, Pearl Seas Cruises and Transocean Tours are among the clients of the port. MediaRadio
TelevisionAll terrestrial television stations in the Sept-Îles area are repeaters of stations and networks that originate elsewhere. These stations are available on the Cogeco cable system, which also offer a local cable channel, TVCogeco. The local Cogeco system also carries CBMT-DT (CBC) Montreal and CJBR-DT (Ici Radio-Canada Télé) Rimouski. Sept-Îles is not designated as a mandatory market for digital television conversion; only CFTF-TV and Télé-Québec announced their intentions to convert all their transmitters to digital, regardless of location.
EconomyIron ore concentrate from IOC activities in Labrador City are transported by the Quebec North Shore and Labrador Railway and are shipped to many markets around the world from Sept-Îles port facilities. Iron ore from Wabush and Bloom Lake is also shipped at Point Noire port facilities. The Aluminerie Alouette, in activity since 1992 has a large part in the local employment since his construction started in 1989. Since its major expansion that started in 2005, it is now the largest primary aluminum smelter in the Americas. As a service centre for northeastern Québec, Sept-Îles economy is also powered by many jobs in the services sector. Prior to its disestablishment, Air Gaspé was headquartered in Sept-Îles.[19] Notable current and former residents
