The Montreal Urban Community (MUC) (Communaute Urbain de Montreal - CUM) was a regional government that covered all municipalities that the PQ later forcibly merged into the Megacity of Montreal. It was composed of all the on-island municipalities of Montreal Island, plus their off-island appendages, and the municipality of L'Ile-Bizard on Bizard Island. The supramunicipal level of government at the time of merger was changed to become the 450-zone plus 514-zone, instead of the 514-only MUC, and thus was created the Montreal Metropolitan Community (MMC). Since the merger and subsequent demerger, the MUC has been replaced by the Montreal Agglomeration Council. This left the MMC in place, so the Agglomeration Council is a supramunicipal entity between the municipal level and the regional municpal level.
