 | | La Tuque is a city in northeastern Quebec, Canada on the Saint-Maurice River, between Trois-Rivières and Chambord. |
 | | La Tuque became the largest municipality in land area in Quebec, and second largest in Canada (29,000 km²) after it was merged with the village of Parent, the municipalities of La Bostonnais, La Croche, and Lac-Édouard, and the unorganized territories of Kiskissink, Lac-Berlinguet, Lac-des-Moires, Lac-Pellerin, Lac-Tourlay, Obedjiwan, Petit-Lac-Wayagamac, and Rivière-Windigo on March 26, 2003. |
 | | The voyageurs call it La Tuque, due to a tall mountain whose peak resembles a tuque. |
