Unorganized Rainy River District
Unorganized Rainy River District is an unorganized [area (Canada)|unorganized area] in the Rainy River District of Ontario, Canada, comprising all communities in the district which are not part of incorporated municipalities. Quetico Provincial Park is located entirely within this area.
The area has gradually been reduced in size as portions of it were annexed by surrounding incorporated townships. For example, its area was in the 1981 census, but reduced to in the 2021 census. In 2004, the Township of Morley annexed the geographic townships of Sifton and Dewart, thereby splitting Unorganized Rainy River into two non-contiguous areas.
The Township of Atikokan, as well as the Indian reserves of Rainy [Lake 17A], 17B, 26A, Seine River 23A, and 23B, are enclaves within the unorganized area.
