Lake Abitibi
Encyclopedia Article
Lake Abitibi, shallow lake in eastern Canada, straddling the Ontario-Quebec border. The remnant of an ancient glacial lake, it is 97 km (60 mi) long and has an area of 932 sq km (360 sq mi). Nearby coniferous forests are cut for pulpwood. From the lake, the Abitibi River flows north to the Moose River near James Bay. The name Abitibi comes from an Algonquin word that means “halfway water”, a reference to the lake's location halfway between Hudson Bay and tribal posts on the Ottawa River.
