This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Halifax-Nord, Quebec. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture to zoom in and out.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the Canada Base Map from Natural Resources Canada with Toporama contours layered over it — the CanVec topographic data behind the printed NTS sheets, and the mapping used for hiking, hunting, canoe routes and back-country travel. Relief shows shaded relief and hypsometric tints. The search box finds any Canadian town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Halifax-Nord.
Reading the map like a paper NTS sheet. Click Grid to overlay the UTM grid, labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass — which matters in Canada, where declination runs from about 20 degrees west in Newfoundland to 20 degrees east in the Yukon.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — the grid reference being what Canadian search and rescue work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.
Map search is available for a limited number of queries per session to manage costs. Be specific — search precisely for best results.

Halifax-Nord is a administrative sector in Sainte-Sophie-d'Halifax; L'Érable, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Halifax-Nord is located at 46.1333°N, 71.7000°W.
Halifax-Nord rests within the quiet folds of the land near the Colline Boudreau, where the earth rises in soft, deliberate slopes that catch the long, honeyed light of the late afternoon. It lies 21.9 km east-north-east of Victoriaville, QC (from Victoriaville, QC: bearing 66°T), and is situated 11.0 km south-south-east of Plessisville. The Rivière Bourbon carves a persistent path through this terrain, its waters mirroring the changing moods of a sky that seems to stretch wider here than elsewhere. Beyond the immediate reach of the fields, Lac Tanguay sits in stillness some 6 km away, while the distant, rushing presence of Chutes Mortes lies 19 km to the south, marking a deeper, more turbulent geology. In Halifax-Nord, the air carries a crisp, earthen weight, smelling of damp stone and the deep, abiding silence of the surrounding woods. The history of Halifax-Nord is defined by the steady labor of those who cleared the timber and turned the soil to build a life in Sainte-Sophie-d'Halifax. Agriculture forms the backbone of the local economy, with family-run enterprises navigating the seasonal shifts of the L'Érable region with a practical, seasoned resilience. Life in Halifax-Nord follows the turning of the seasons, marked by the mechanical hum of field work and the quiet persistence of households that have long called this geography home. The local character reflects an endurance born from generations of working with the land, where the daily tasks of maintaining homesteads and managing the harvest provide a constant, grounding purpose.
Halifax-Nord s’étire avec une patience minérale près de la Colline Boudreau, là où le ciel semble peser plus lourdement sur les épaules des terres agricoles. Les premières ombres du crépuscule glissent sur les rives de la Rivière Bourbon, imprégnant les labours d'une teinte cuivrée qui adoucit la rudesse du relief. À quelques lieues de cette quiétude, le Lac Tanguay capte les derniers éclats du jour dans son miroir immobile, tandis que le fracas lointain des Chutes Mortes scande le silence des bois environnants. Halifax-Nord puise sa force dans cette géographie discrète, façonnée par des générations qui ont appris à lire la terre autant que les caprices du climat. L’économie locale, liée depuis longtemps à la culture des champs et aux travaux de la terre, conserve une cadence lente, presque suspendue, où le temps ne se mesure pas en horloges mais en récoltes et en changements de lumière sur les pentes. Les maisons, modestes et droites, se tournent vers l'horizon avec une assurance tranquille, habitées par une mémoire rurale qui refuse les agitations inutiles. Ici, la vie se déroule dans une humilité attentive, portée par le souffle constant qui monte de la vallée et le rythme immuable des eaux qui traversent le paysage.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Canadian town, county or landmark by name; offers the Canada Base Map with Toporama contours and shaded relief as base layers; overlays a labelled UTM grid so the map can be read like a printed NTS sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference and as latitude and longitude.
