Labelle (French pronunciation: [labɛl]) is a village and municipality in the Laurentides region of Quebec, Canada, part of the Les Laurentides Regional County Municipality. Its large L-shaped territory surrounds Lake Labelle, and the village is located along the Rouge River and Route 117. Labelle was named after Curé Antoine Labelle (1833-1891), a Catholic priest who was the pastor of Saint-Jérôme parish from 1868 to 1891. Nicknamed the “King of the North,” he came up with a plan to resettle French Canadians in northwestern Quebec, northern Ontario and Manitoba, in prevent an exodus to the United States. He helped found some 20 parishes and settled close to 5,000 inhabitants in the region.
