I'm not sure at all, but, as I translated this article to Swedish, I got convinced that "Katimavik Regional Administration" should probably say "Kativik Regional Administration".

Total area of E+J+K summed up = 747161.23, which differs slightly from figure of 747161.22 for the census division as a whole due to rounding error.
Note this is not WP:OR because it involves "Routine calculations" and "Basic arithmetic, such as adding numbers". -- P.T. Aufrette (talk) 22:11, 1 May 2012 (UTC)
Bigger than Texas[edit]
I removed the phrase comparing it to Texas from the introduction for several reasons. Firstly, it's unnecessary because the text tells you the area in square kilometres and miles. If you really don't understand how big that is then use a search engine. This is an encyclopaedia not a child's text book. Such comparisons look very silly and amateurish although I'm aware that it's all too common in the USA (the CIA fact book annoyingly does the same and makes me feel small every time I read it). Furthermore it suggests a US-centric focus (true but no need to emphasise it!). Why not compare it to a Canadian province or territory like Nunavut? Or if you're going to compare it to somewhere non-Canadian then make a really, really long list just to please everybody. Whatever next? Maybe we should add to the introduction on German that it sounds like English spoken in a weird way or describe the USA as like Canada but with too many guns and no free healthcare or state that the Sun is really, really big, about a billion times bigger than Rhode Island?--XANIA - ЗAНИAWikipedia talk | Wikibooks talk 22:11, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
Updating[edit]
With the merger of Eeyou Istchee and Jamesie in 2012, the "population and local government" and "subdivisions" sections need to be totally rewritten. The former kind of contradicts itself in its own section. Most important, it needs to be made very clear which TEs the local municipalities belong to/are subordinate to, and then seperate out anything independent of the two TEs. As far as I can tell, there are 28 Inuit northern villages and reserved land, 2 organized territories, and 1 Naskapi village (with the reserved land being in another TE) for a total of 31 local municipalities or equivalents subordinate to the Kativik Regional Government. What I'm more unsure of are the local municipalities or equivalents under the TE of Eeyou Istchee James Bay Territory. Then there are municipalities within these two census divisions which belong to neither. The page currently shows four (is Lac-John independent, too?), but I'm not sure how recent this information is. Someone who knows more about this can make the changes. --Criticalthinker (talk) 08:09, 4 March 2017 (UTC)

Nord-du-Québec → Northern Quebec – The article's lead sentence states, "Nord-du-Québec (French pronunciation: [nɔʁ dy kebɛk]; English: Northern Quebec) is the largest..." Since this is the English Wikipedia, it would seem that the main title header should be the administrative region's English name, especially in view of article titles James Bay and Northern Quebec Agreement and Canadian federal election results in the Laurentides, Outaouais and Northern Quebec as well as use of the form "Northern Quebec" in other articles.

- Oppose Canada is a bilingual country and, especially with Quebec, often uses in English names originally derived from French - see the English language version of the government site which shows this is the name in English. Not every word is automatically translated and we shouldn't this here, just as we don't go translating every Spanish word in US placenames. Timrollpickering 23:15, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
