Statistics Canada classifies the township as part of the [[Sudbury, Unorganized, North Part, Ontario|Sudbury, Unorganized, North Part]] census subdivision.
[[Halfway Lake Provincial Park]] is located approximately {{convert|20|km|mi|0}} north of Cartier.
==History==
In 1885 the community was known as Archer. In 1888 it was officially named Cartier after the township, which was named to honour Sir [[George-Étienne Cartier]] (1814–1873), joint premier of the province of Canada with Sir [[John A. Macdonald]] from 1857 to 1862. The township was named by surveyor [[H. B. Proudfoot]].
== Demographics ==
In the [[2021 Canadian census|2021 Census of Population]] conducted by [[Statistics Canada]], Cartier had a population of 218 living in 103 of its 115 total private dwellings, a change of {{percentage|{{#expr:218-241}}|241|1}} from its 2016 population of 241. With a land area of {{cvt|58.41|km2}}, it had a population density of {{Pop density|218|58.41|km2|sqmi|prec=1}} in 2021.<ref name=2021census>{{cite web | url=https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/t1/tbl1/en/cv.action?pid=9810001201 | title=Population and dwelling counts: Canada and designated places | publisher=[[Statistics Canada]] | date=February 9, 2022 | accessdate=Sep 2, 2022}}</ref>
==Transportation==
Prior to 1964, Cartier was the northern terminus of provincial highway 544 from Sudbury, which was renumbered as Highway 144 when it was extended northerly to Timmins.
[[Cartier station (Ontario)|Cartier station]], a stop-on-request station, is served by [[Via Rail]]'s [[Sudbury – White River train]].<ref>{{cite web|url= http://www.viarail.ca/train-stations/en-station-cartier-ontario.html|title= Cartier train station|publisher= Via Rail|accessdate= 2011-02-18}}</ref> Cartier is also a [[flag stop]] on [[Ontario Northland]]'s motor coach service from Sudbury to Hearst.
