Sainte-Catherine-de-Hatley is a municipality on Quebec Route 108 along Little Lake Magog. It is part of the Memphrémagog Regional County Municipality in the Eastern Townships region of Quebec. It is the home of the "Marais" birdwatching sanctuary, the Eglise Sainte Catherine de Hatley, as well as the Dominique Savio primary School. Sainte-Catherine-de-Hatley is also known (and formerly known) as "Katevale". As the hometown of producer Franklin Raff, pastoral Sainte-Catherine-de-Hatley is frequently depicted on G. Gordon Liddy's syndicated talk radio show as an otherworldly, Franco-Catholic redoubt in a predominantly Anglo-Loyalist region of Quebec.
