Chute-Saint-Philippe is a municipality in the Laurentides region of Quebec, Canada, part of the Antoine-Labelle Regional County Municipality.
The village is located in a fairly flat valley surrounded by a mountainous area of the Laurentian Hills that are dominated by mixed forest.[1]
The settlement initially had the name Chute-Leon at the beginning of the 20th century, in memory of Pope Leo XIII (1810-1903), and was called Victoria Falls by 1903, in honour of Queen Victoria (1819-1901).[1]
In 1921, a mission was founded here with Philip the Apostle as its patron saint. In 1934, the local post office was renamed to Chute-Saint-Philippe, taking its name from a drop on the Kiamika River and the patron saint.[1] On December 26, 1940, the Municipality of Chute St-Philippe was formed out of territory ceded from Ferme-Neuve and an adjacent unorganized territory. In 1969, the orthography was adjusted to Chute-Saint-Philippe.[4]
In 1966, the mission received its status as a parish.[1]
In the 2021 Census of Population conducted by Statistics Canada, Chute-Saint-Philippe had a population of 1,039 living in 513 of its 876 total private dwellings, a change of 10.3% from its 2016 population of 942. With a land area of 298.64 km2 (115.31 sq mi), it had a population density of 3.5/km2 (9.0/sq mi) in 2021.[3]
