The new settlement, formed by families from Saint-Eustache, Portneuf, Bellechasse and the Mauricie, was therefore first called Abana. In 1931, the Normetal Mining Corporation acquired the mine and brought it to full operation six years later. In 1939, the railway and road to Dupuy was completed. In 1945, the place was incorporated, taking the name of the mining corporation whose name in turn is a portmanteau for “northern” and “metal”.[1][4]In 1949, street lighting was installed in Norm\u00e9tal. In 1950, the mining corporation came under control of Noranda (which became Falconbridge Ltd. and bought by Xstrata in 2006). In 1956, the mine had a peak production of 900 tons of ore per day and employed over 600 persons. In 1961, the town reached a population of 2519, its largest number of residents. But in 1975, after reaching a depth of 8,000 feet (2,400\u00a0m), the copper mine closed, resulting in a large exodus of people from the community with many going to the mines of Matagami and Joutel that had just opened. By the following year, the population had dropped to 1455.[1][4][5] (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4The Normetmar Mine closed in 1990. In 2005, work began on rehabilitation of the mine site by removing the tailings and planting vegetation.[4][5]Demographics[edit]Population[edit]Canada census \u2013 Norm\u00e9tal, Quebec community profilePopulation778 (-3.7% from 2016)808 (-5.6% from 2011)856 (-3.4% from 2006)Land area55.25\u00a0km2 (21.33\u00a0sq\u00a0mi)55.68\u00a0km2 (21.50\u00a0sq\u00a0mi)57.30\u00a0km2 (22.12\u00a0sq\u00a0mi)Population density14.1\/km2 (37\/sq\u00a0mi)14.5\/km2 (38\/sq\u00a0mi)14.9\/km2 (39\/sq\u00a0mi)Median age46.4 (M: 45.2, F: 46.8)47.0 (M: 46.0, F: 48.4)45.6 (M: 45.5, F: 45.8)Total private dwellings360415397Median household income$39,424$29,265Historical Census Data – Norm\u00e9tal, QuebecYearPop.\u00b1% 1986 1,231\u2014\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 1991 1,193\u22123.1% 1996 1,129\u22125.4% 2001 1,019\u22129.7%YearPop.\u00b1% 2006 886\u221213.1% 2011 856\u22123.4% 2016 808\u22125.6% 2021 778\u22123.7%Source: Statistics Canada[11]Language[edit]Canada Census Mother Tongue – Norm\u00e9tal, Quebec[11]CensusTotalFrenchEnglishFrench & EnglishOtherYearResponsesCountTrendPop\u00a0%CountTrendPop\u00a0%CountTrendPop\u00a0%CountTrendPop\u00a0%2011855850 1.2%99.42%5 50.0%0.58%0 0.0%0.00%0 100.0%0.00%2006885860 13.1%97.18%10 n\/a%1.13%0 0.0%0.00%15 40.0%1.69%20011,015990 12.4%97.54%0 100.0%0.00%0 0.0%0.00%25 n\/a%2.46%19961,1401,130n\/a99.12%10n\/a0.88%0n\/a0.00%0n\/a0.00%Municipal council[edit]Mayor: Roger L\u00e9vesqueCouncillors: Reynald B\u00e9land, L\u00e9o Gaudreault, Ghislain Desbiens, Monique Bouchard, Karine Naud, Lise B\u00e9ginList of mayors[edit]The former mayors of Norm\u00e9tal were:[12]Albert Lafond 1945\u201347Georges Barr\u00e9 1947\u201355Rom\u00e9o Morin 1955\u201356Lucien Trottier 1956\u201361Lionel Mayer 1961\u201363Samuel Petitclerc 1963\u201365, 1975\u201376R\u00e9gis Comeau 1965\u201368Philippe Doire 1968\u201375R\u00e9al Gamache 1976\u201381Maurice Moisan 1981Andr\u00e9 Rivest 1981Normand Beaupr\u00e9 1981\u20132005Daniel Therrien 2005\u201307Jean Bergeron 2007\u20132010Louise Quesnel 2010\u20132012Rachel Bureau 2012-2013Jacques Dickey 2013-2017Roger L\u00e9vesque 2017-2021Culture[edit]The town of Norm\u00e9tal is the setting of an award-winning movie, The Legacy from filmmaker Bernard \u00c9mond (2009), in which a family medicine physician from Montreal takes over the practice of an aging physician in need of respite.[13]See also[edit]References[edit]^ a b c “Norm\u00e9tal (Municipalit\u00e9)” (in French).
