History
The island was formerly known as Vaudreuil Island but was named "Île à Cadieu" in an unpublished document of the second half of the nineteenth century. This name could be a reference to one of two Cadieux, Pierre and Hyacinthe, who owned land in the first concession along the Cove of Vaudreuil at that time.[5]
In 1922, the municipality was formed by separating from the Parish Municipality of Saint-Michel-de-Vaudreuil.[5]
