A-34 RÉPERTOIRE ET ALMANACH CANADIEN 2019 QUÉBEC Québec legislation recognizes two levels of municipal organization: the local and the regional. Major municipal reform has reduced the number of local municipalities from nearly 1,400 in 1998 to 1,110 as of 2016. Of this number, 227 fall under the jurisdiction of the Cities and Towns Act (RSQ, chap. C-19). Nine of them have over 100,000 inhabitants and account for 53% of the Québec population. There are also 883 municipalities that are governed by the Municipal Code of Québec, 14 northern villages that fall under the Act Respecting Northern Villages and the Katvik Regional Government, and 9 villages governed by the Cree Villages and the Naskapi Village Act. The regional level of municipal territorial organization includes the Montréal and Québec City metropolitan communities, the 87 regional county municipalities (RCMs), and the Kativik Regional Government. The metropolitan communities and RCMs are made up of local municipalities. RCMs may also include unorganized territories. The regional organizations were created to ensure that issues that go beyond local boundaries were handled at the regional or metropolitan level. Although their structures, operation and powers vary, they are based on identical principles. The Montréal and Québec City metropolitan communities are responsible at their level for land use planning, economic development, international economic promotion, artistic and cultural development, regional orientations in public transit, waste management planning, establishing a tax base sharing program, as well as for determining and financing regional facilities, infrastructures, activities, and services. RCMs also meet regional needs, including land use planning and the pooling of services. In addition, they exercise certain powers in the areas of economic development, public security and the environment. The Kativik Regional Government is in charge of local administration, police, transport, communications and labour force training and use, and may also set minimum standards by ordinance for things like house and building construction. Eight local municipalities belong neither to a metropolitan community nor to one of the regional county municipalities. They do, however, wield some of the same powers as RCMs. This also holds true for six other cities, which although situated within one of the two metropolitan communities, nonetheless exercise certain of the powers of an RCM. Eight cities are divided into boroughs. The boroughs have consultative and decision-making powers, are responsible for delivering certain neighbourhood services, and are represented by an elected borough council. Elections in the province are held every four years on the first Sunday of November (2017, 2021, etc.)
