Lemieux Island (French: Île Lemieux) is a small island in the middle of the Ottawa River in the National Capital Region of Canada. The island lies between Gatineau, Quebec and the national capital, Ottawa, Ontario. Administratively being a part of the latter,[1] it is crossed by the Prince of Wales Bridge[2] and serves a site for the water filtration plant.[3]
