Lac-Metei is an unorganized territory in the Abitibi-Témiscamingue region of Quebec, Canada.

It is one of five unorganized territories in the La Vallée-de-l'Or Regional County Municipality.

It was formed on July 6, 1996, when most of the former unorganized territory of Lac-Bricault (which was 1,038.06 km2 (400.80 sq mi) in area) was added to the City of Senneterre.

It retained only a small wedge-shaped piece of land that was renamed to Lac-Metei, after Lake Metei found within is boundaries.

[4] The name Metei comes from the Innu language, meaning "heart".
