Champneuf (Script error: No such module "IPA".) is a municipality in the Canadian province of Quebec, located in the Abitibi Regional County Municipality. It is the least populated incorporated place in the Abitibi-Témiscamingue region.

History

In 1938, the settlement was founded, first called Colonie Bertrand, after its first parish priest Achille-Augustin Bertrand. In 1941, it was renamed to Champneufs (French for "new fields"), but also known by the parish name of Saint-François-d'Assise-de-Champneufs during the 1950s. At one point and for unknown reasons, the name was changed from the plural to the singular Champneuf. In 1964, the place was incorporated as a municipality.[1]
