Matane is a former provincial electoral district in the Bas-Saint-Laurent and Gaspésie–Îles-de-la-Madeleine regions of Quebec, Canada, that elected members to the National Assembly of Quebec.

It was created for the 1890 election from parts of Rimouski. Its final election was in 2008. It disappeared in the 2012 election and its successor electoral districts were Matane-Matapédia and Gaspé.[3]
