driving to Hudson Bay? Check out
James Bay Highway in Quebec.. This highway will get you you to James
Bay. The highway travels North to a Cree Community called Chisasibi
Chisasibi is located on the Eastern shore of James Bay, and is home to
over 3,300. A 90km paved road connects Chisasibi to the Route de la
Baie James (James Bay Road). Chisasibi airport is located west of the
community, with Air Creebec operating scheduled flights to and from
the community. From Chisasbi you will need to connect to
Whapmagoostui. The northernmost community Whapmagoostui is located at
the mouth of the Great Whale River on the coast of Hudson Bay and has
a population of 778 people. Although Whapmagoostui is geographically
isolated with no access road to the South, the Internet and other
telecommunications technology link to the outside world. Residents
also enjoy access to modern facilities such as, an arena, gymnasium,
swimming pool, health clinic and an elementary and secondary school
and a variety of businesses and stores. Two airlines, Air Creebec and
Air Inuit, service the community.
