Understand
The region of Quebec east of the Natashquan River uses Atlantic time zone of UTC -4 and does not use Daylight Saving Time. So clocks in the extreme far east of Quebec match Labrador City in the winter and Montreal in the summer.
As this region of Quebec is near the Atlantic Ocean, many storm systems can be very intense throughout the year with a lot of snow throughout the long winter. Temperatures can vary significantly throughout the day and year.
Get around
- Quebec Route 389 runs north from Baie-Comeau to Caniapiscau (and then into Western Labrador). This is a challenging road to drive, alternating between sections of asphalt and gravel with very few fuel or rest stops.
