Administrative Divisions of Quebec - Regional Level

Regional Level

The highest level of organization is the administrative region (région administrative). Quebec has 17 administrative regions. They serve primarily to organize the provision of provincial government services, most significantly the allocation of regional economic development funding. Moreover, they are the basis for regional coordination of local and supralocal governments through regional conferences of elected officers or CREs (conférences régionales des élus).
