L'Isle-Verte is a small municipality located along the south shore of the Saint Lawrence River, in the Rivière-du-Loup Regional County Municipality of the Bas-Saint-Laurent region, Quebec, Canada. The name of the village refers to ''Île Verte'' (French for "Green Island"), a nearby island that is not within its municipal boundaries. Village and island are joined by a seasonal ferry. It is known for its lamb, fed in a salted marsh, a luxury product in Quebec. Its marshes along the Saint Lawrence River are a protected bird sanctuary part of the Baie de l’Isle-Verte Ramsar wetland. On January 23, 2014, a major fire destroyed the Résidence du Havre, a home for the elderly, killing thirty-two residents.〔http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/l-isle-verte-search-resumes-remains-of-3-victims-found-1.2519899〕 ==Demographics== Population trend:〔Statistics Canada: 1996, 2001, 2006, 2011 census〕 * Population in 2011: 1469 (2006 to 2011 population change: 0.3%) * Population in 2006: 1464 * Population in 2001: 1519 * * 2001 to 2006 population change: -3.6 % * Population in 1996: 1567 (adjusted for boundary change) * Population in 1991: 1013 Private dwellings occupied by usual residents: 616 (total dwellings: 681) Languages: * English as first language: 0% * French as first language: 99% * English and French as first language: 0% * Other as first language: 1% 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「L'Isle-Verte, Quebec」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
