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 La Clairière.
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.

La Clairière is a residential area in La Prairie; Roussillon, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. La Clairière is located at 45.4181°N, 73.4756°W.
La Clairière rests with a quiet composure along the southern banks of the St. Lawrence, where the flat, fertile land finds its edge against the persistent pull of the river. It lies 11.8 km south-south-east of Montréal, QC (from Montréal, QC: bearing 149°T), and is situated 11.2 km south-south-west of Longueuil. The low-lying terrain near the Le Coteau allows the light of late afternoon to stretch across the fields, casting long, amber shadows that linger over the Rivière Saint-Jacques as it winds toward the larger flow. Within a short distance, the presence of Lac de l'Île Notre-Dame and the distant, rising silhouette of Parc national du Mont-Saint-Bruno define the horizon, grounding La Clairière in a landscape of water and ancient stone. The air here holds a crisp, river-born clarity, particularly when the wind shifts to carry the scent of damp earth and coming weather across the open plains. History remains anchored in the traditional land use of La Prairie, where the Roussillon region has long balanced agricultural roots with the steady expansion of suburban life. While modern commerce and local industry occupy the spaces between the older, established plots, La Clairière retains a sense of purpose rooted in the movement of the nearby waterways. Residents move through their days with a pragmatic awareness of the changing seasons, acknowledging the cycles of the river that have shaped the region since its earliest settlement. The character of La Clairière thrives in this intersection of heritage and activity, maintaining a steady, observant presence as the tides of the St. Lawrence continue their slow, rhythmic work against the shore.
La Clairière s'étire avec une patience tranquille sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le souffle du large rencontre la douceur des terres basses près du Coteau. Le paysage s'ordonne selon les méandres de la Rivière Saint-Jacques, dont les eaux calmes accompagnent le rythme des travaux agricoles hérités des premières concessions seigneuriales. Sous le ciel immense de la plaine, la lumière décline en teintes d'ambre et de cuivre, illuminant les sols fertiles qui ont longtemps nourri les familles de la région. À une dizaine de kilomètres, le Lac de l'Île Notre-Dame semble veiller sur l'horizon, tandis que les hauteurs du Parc national du Mont-Saint-Bruno esquissent, plus loin encore, une silhouette familière dans le lointain. La Clairière conserve cette noblesse des lieux bâtis par la terre et le labeur, où le silence des champs s'accorde au murmure constant des courants fluviaux. Les habitants, héritiers d'une longue tradition de ténacité, cultivent une existence simple, rythmée par la montée des eaux printanières et l'immobilité glacée de l'hiver. Chaque demeure, chaque parcelle cultivée, porte en soi cette relation directe et sans artifice avec la topographie plane, offrant une sérénité que seule une terre ouverte sur le grand fleuve peut offrir à ceux qui savent l'écouter.
