About Gatineau
Gatineau is Québec's contribution to Canada's national capital region. It sits on the Ottawa River, just across from Ottawa, and as a result of its recent amalgamation on January 1, 2002 is now Ottawa's biggest suburb. It also boasts some of the region's most popular tourist attractions, from national museums, to the world's only Imax/Omnimax theater, to the Casino du Lac Leamy, and of course, the Gatineau Park, famous for its Fall Rhapsody of Colour, one of the world's greatest displays of natural colour & beauty.
