Everything about The District Of Ungava totally explained
The
District of Ungava was a regional administrative district of
Canada's
Northwest Territories from 1895 to 1912. It covered the northern portion of what is today
Quebec, the interior of
Labrador and the offshore islands to the West and North which are now part of the
Nunavut Territory.
The continental areas of the District of Ungava were transferred by the
Parliament of Canada with the adoption of the
Quebec Boundary Extension Act, 1898 and the
Quebec Boundaries Extension Act, 1912. This territory is now part of the administrative regions
Nord-du-Québec and
Côte-Nord; the offshore islands of the District of Ungava remained part of the Northwest Territories until the creation of the Nunavut Territory in 1999.
In 1927, the long-standing dispute over the location of the boundary between
Labrador (a dependency of the
Dominion of Newfoundland) and the former District of Ungava (by then part of Quebec) was taken to the arbitration of the British
Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, which ruled in favour of Newfoundland.
