• A 16th century indigenous village on the island of Montreal, now in Quebec, Canada. In 1845, the name was given to a rural municipality surrounding Montreal and in 1854 to the county comprising the eastern half of the island of Montreal. The Village of Hochelaga, an eastern suburb of Montreal, was incorporated in 1863; it became a town in 1883 just before its annexation by Montreal, after which it was known as Hochelaga Ward. Since 2002, it is mostly comprised within the borough of Hochelaga-Maisonneuve.
