'''Montréal''' (06) is one of the [[List of Quebec regions|administrative regions]] of [[Quebec]], [[Canada]].

It is also a [[territory equivalent to a regional county municipality]] (TE) and a [[Census geographic units of Canada|census division]] (CD), for both of which its geographical code is 66.

It consists of the [[2002–2006 municipal reorganization in Montreal|2002–2005 territory]] of the city of [[Montreal]], and is coextensive with the [[Urban agglomerations of Quebec|Urban Agglomeration]] of Montreal (French: ''Agglomération de Montréal''). Following merger of all the municipalities of the agglomeration into one on January 1, 2002, sixteen of its municipalities were [[Municipal reorganization in Quebec|reconstituted]] on January 1, 2006. The urban agglomeration is governed by the Montreal Agglomeration Council (French: ''Conseil d'agglomération de Montréal''). Prior to the merger of the municipalities in ''Region 06'' in 2002, the administrative region was co-extensive with the [[Montreal Urban Community]].

Located in the southern part of the province, the territory includes several of the islands of the [[Hochelaga Archipelago]] in the [[Saint Lawrence River]], including the [[Island of Montreal]], [[Nuns' Island]] (Île des Sœurs), [[Île Bizard]], [[Île Sainte-Hélène|Saint Helen's Island]] (Île Sainte-Hélène), [[Île Notre-Dame]], [[Île Dorval|Dorval Island]] (Île Dorval), and several others.

The region is the second-smallest (499.19 km², or 192.74 sq mi) and most populous (1,854,442 at [[Statistics Canada|2006 census]]) of Quebec's seventeen administrative regions.

==Montreal Agglomeration Council==

The executive of the urban agglomeration is the agglomeration council. The weighting of votes for the council breaks down to 87% for the City of Montreal, and 13% for the other municipalities of the Island of Montreal.
