Moffet is a municipality in northwestern Quebec, Canada, in the Témiscamingue Regional County Municipality. The municipality had a population of 206 as of the 2021 Canadian census.

History

As early as 1910, settlers arrived in the area, but it was not until 1931 that the village developed when a group of settlers from Saint-Zacharie in the Beauce region came and cleared the land. The place was named after Joseph Moffet (1852–1932), an Oblate missionary who had explored the Témiscamingue region and founded Ville-Marie. In 1932, the first sawmill was built, followed by the first forge two years later. In 1936, the Moffet Post Office opened, and the next year, the general store.[1][4]

On January 1, 1953, the Municipality of Moffet was established out of parts of the United Township Municipality of Latulipe-et-Gaboury and previously unincorporated territory.[5] Its first mayor was Emmanuel Gagné.[4]
