The Dazemard River is a tributary of the east bank of the Wetetnagami River flowing into Senneterre in the RCM of La Vallée-de-l'Or Regional County Municipality, in the administrative region of Abitibi-Témiscamingue, in Quebec, in Canada.
This river crosses successively (from the upstream) the cantons of Souart, Moquin and Effiat.
Forestry is the main economic activity of the sector; recreational tourism activities, second.
The Dazemard River Valley is served by the R1015 Forest Road (North-South direction) passing west of the Wetetnagami River Valley; this road joins the road R1051 towards the North (East-West direction).
The surface of the Dazemard River is usually frozen from early November to mid-May, however, safe ice circulation is generally from mid-November to mid-April.
