Etymology

The name "Métis" is said to come from a Mi'kmaq word meaning "meeting place"; "sur-mer" refers to its location on the Saint Lawrence River.

History

Métis-sur-Mer, postcard, c. 1904 – 1910

From 1818, John MacNider, the Scottish Seigneur of Métis started settling the area with Scottish immigrants.

The city has a borough named MacNider, named after MacNider's family. Its territory corresponds to the former (pre-merger) village municipality of Métis-sur-Mer (Metis Beach).[4][5]

The town was a popular summer vacation spot for wealthy anglophone Montrealers. At the end of the 19th century, they spent their time in Métis-sur-Mer to flee waves of cholera. At the beginning of the 20th century, they did so again to escape outbreaks of the Spanish flu.[6]

On July 4, 2002, the village of Métis-sur-Mer and the municipality of Les Boules merged to form the city of Métis-sur-Mer.[7]

Demographics

In the 2021 Census of Population conducted by Statistics Canada, Métis-sur-Mer had a population of 594 living in 310 of its 505 total private dwellings, a change of 3.8% from its 2016 population of 572. With a land area of 48.22 km2 (18.62 sq mi), it had a population density of 12.3/km2 (31.9/sq mi) in 2021.[8]
