Pontiac (French pronunciation: [pɔ̃tjak]) is a municipality in the Outaouais Region of western Quebec, Canada, on the north shore of the Ottawa River.

[1] Pontiac has a low cost of living and is trying to attract new immigrants coming to Canada to improve the local economy.

[4] The first European settlers in this area were Joseph Mondion and his family, who built a homestead in 1786 on what is known today as Indian Point.

The HBC operated a small trading post, which closed in 1837.

[5] According to the 2016 Canadian Census, the population's mother tongue was 55.5% French, 38.6% English, and 3.2% other languages, including Portuguese, German, Arabic, Spanish, Dutch, and Russian.
