Sainte-Catherine-de-Hatley was formerly known as "Katevale". As the hometown of producer Franklin Raff, pastoral Sainte-Catherine-de-Hatley is frequently depicted on G. Gordon Liddy's syndicated talk radio show as an otherworldly, Franco-Catholic redoubt in a predominantly Anglo-Loyalist region of Quebec.
