Kamouraska (French pronunciation: [kamuʁaska] ⓘ) is a municipality on the south shore of the Saint Lawrence River in the Bas-Saint-Laurent region of Quebec, Canada.
The name "Kamouraska" comes from an Algonquin word meaning "where rushes grow at the water's edge".
Cliffs along the river provide nesting habitat for peregrine falcons, cormorants and great blue herons.
[5] Taché was said to be killed by George Holmes, an American doctor from Sorel who was thought to be a lover of his wife.
It was adapted as a 1973 film of the same name, directed by Claude Jutra and with a screenplay written by him and Hebert.
