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).

Famous quotes containing the word level:
“To Time it never seems that he is brave
To set himself against the peaks of snow
To lay them level with the running wave,
Nor is he overjoyed when they lie low,
But only grave, contemplative and grave.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
