National Capital Region (Canada)
The National Capital Region ((フランス語:Région de la capitale nationale)), also referred to as Canada's Capital Region and Ottawa-Gatineau, is an official federal designation for the Canadian capital of Ottawa, Ontario, the neighbouring city of Gatineau, Quebec, and surrounding urban and rural communities. The term National Capital Region is often used to describe the Ottawa-Gatineau metropolitan area.
Unlike capital districts in some other federal countries, such as Washington, D.C., Canberra, ACT, or Mexico's Distrito Federal, the National Capital Region is not a separate political entity. Its component parts are within the provinces of Ontario and Quebec.
Defined by the National Capital Act,〔(laws.justice.gc.ca full text of "National Capital Act" (R.S.C., 1985, c. N-4) )〕 the National Capital Region consists of an area of 〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Creating Plans )〕 that straddles the Ottawa River,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Creating Plans )〕 which serves as the boundary between the provinces of Ontario and Quebec. This area is smaller than that of the Ottawa-Gatineau Census Metropolitan Area (CMA), which is in size.〔 Ottawa-Gatineau is the only CMA in the nation to fall within two provinces.
== History ==
The first settlement in the region was led by Philemon Wright, a New Englander from Woburn, Massachusetts who, on March 7, 1800, arrived with his own and five other families along with twenty-five labourers to start an agricultural community on the north bank of the Ottawa River (Hull, Quebec) at the portage to the Chaudière Falls.
