Clarke City, called Paushtiku in the Innu language, is a community in the City of Sept-Îles, in the Quebec region of Côte-Nord. It is located roughly 20 kilometers west of the Sept-Îles city centre, on the Sainte-Marguerite River near Route 138. The name of the town originated from the Clarke brothers who established a paper mill there in 1903 to feed their publication house in Toronto. They also built a hydroelectric factory in 1908 and that year, the village was officially founded as the region's first closed city. Also that year, the registers of the Saint-Cœur-de-Marie Parish began, counting some 400 persons in Clarke City.

- Clarke City est un secteur de Sept-Îles au Québec situé à une trentaine de kilomètres à l'ouest du centre-ville. Le secteur était, lors de sa fondation en 1908, une ville industrielle typique du début du XXe siècle. Érigée au milieu de la forêt boréale pour y établir une industrie extractive, elle a été prospère avant de connaître un revers de fortune lié au sort de son propriétaire. La municipalité a été fusionnée à la ville de Sept-Îles en 1970. (fr)
