Joliette is a city in southwest Quebec, Canada. It is approximately 50 kilometres (31 mi) northeast of Montreal, on the L'Assomption River. It is also the seat of the Regional County Municipality of Joliette. Founded in 1823 by Barthélemy Joliette and his wife Marie-Charlotte de Lanaudière. Joliette named it L'Industrie to "design [it] around economic activity, mills, land development and a desire to create a durable centre on the L’Assomption River." In 1863, the city incorporated, and changed its name to Joliette.
