The James Bay Hydroelectric Project is a government hydroelectricity project that generates around 24,000 megawatts of electricity. It also takes up around 350,000km2 of Quebec's land. The building process consisted of three phases and only two of these three phases were completed. The third phase was put on hold and is still on hold till this day because of concerns on the ecological impact of the third phase of the project.

It was to alter 19 waterways and create 27 new reservoirs, pretty much just expanding the area and making a lot of jobs for the Cree.
