👉 George River (Quebec) in the context of Kangiqsualujjuaq

Kangiqsualujjuaq (/kænˌɪksuˈæluæk/ kan-JIK-soo-AL-oo-joo-ak; Inuktitut: [kaŋiqsu.alujːu.ˈaq]; French: [kɑ̃dʒiksɥalydʒɥak]) is an Inuit village located at the mouth of the George River on the east coast of Ungava Bay in Nunavik, Quebec, Canada. Its population was 956 as of the 2021 census.

The settlement's original name, Fort Severight, honoured John Severight, a North West Company man who had headed Fort Coulonge during McLean's time there. After its re-establishment, it was variously known from its location as Fort George, George's River, George River, George River Post, and Fort George River. It was also sometimes known as Port-Nouveau-Québec (French for "Port New Quebec").
