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 Magdeleine.
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 Magdeleine is a residential area in La Prairie; Roussillon, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. La Magdeleine is located at 45.4125°N, 73.4736°W.
La Magdeleine rests within the quiet reach of La Prairie, holding its ground where the land softens toward the St. Lawrence. It lies 12.4 km south-south-east of Montréal, QC (from Montréal, QC: bearing 150°T), and is situated 11.7 km south-south-west of Longueuil. The presence of the Rivière Saint-Jacques defines the local terrain, carving a path through the earth that dictates the slow, deliberate movement of the morning mist. In the twilight, the air takes on a crisp, metallic edge as the light fades over the Le Coteau, casting long, sharp shadows across the fields. Beyond the immediate reach of the homes, the horizon stretches toward the distance where Lac de l'Île Notre-Dame sits eleven kilometers away, and the rising silhouette of Parc national du Mont-Saint-Bruno marks the boundary of the landscape twenty kilometers out. The history of La Magdeleine lingers in the way the local streets follow the original contours of the old agricultural concessions, maintaining a connection to the generations who first cleared the heavy soil. While the economy has shifted away from the early reliance on the fur trade and subsistence farming that once characterized the Roussillon region, the character of the place retains a focus on family life and domestic stability. Residents often gather near the water, where the sound of the Rivière Saint-Jacques provides a constant, low-frequency hum beneath the sounds of modern engines. This locality functions as a bridge between the industrial pulse of the nearby metropolitan centers and the persistent, grounded stillness of the riverside, a balance maintained by those who prefer the quietude of a place that feels deeply settled.
La Magdeleine déploie ses habitations sur les terres fertiles de la Rive-Sud, là où le regard s'attarde sur les reflets changeants du Saint-Laurent. Ce territoire, marqué par une longue tradition de labeur agricole, se découvre avec une douceur particulière au crépuscule, lorsque la lumière dorée souligne la silhouette des arbres et la rectitude des anciennes concessions. À proximité, les eaux paisibles de la Rivière Saint-Jacques serpentent à travers le relief, offrant aux résidents un horizon calme qui semble suspendre le tumulte du monde moderne. Si l'on s'éloigne vers l'intérieur des terres, le paysage s'ouvre, laissant deviner au loin la présence du Parc national du Mont-Saint-Bruno, tandis que le souvenir du Lac de l'Île Notre-Dame plane comme une promesse de fraîcheur estivale à quelques lieues de là. La Magdeleine préserve ainsi une identité simple, faite de voisinages tranquilles et de rues où l'air porte le parfum humide des berges. Cette localité, attentive à ses racines, entretient un dialogue constant avec les éléments qui la bordent, transformant chaque fin de journée en un moment de contemplation où le ciel de la plaine vient mourir doucement sur la ligne sombre des rives.
