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 Saint-Nazaire-d'Acton.
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.

It lies 18.8 km south-south-west of Drummondville, QC (from Drummondville, QC: bearing 214°T), and is situated 11.0 km north-north-west of Acton Vale. The light at dusk here settles heavy and amber against the silos, casting long, deliberate shadows across the earth as the air cools with the scent of damp soil and clover. While the Rivière Duncan flows steadily through the broader landscape some seven kilometers away, the immediate terrain of Saint-Nazaire-d'Acton focuses on the steady, diligent work of the land. Further out, the presence of Lac Laliberté twelve kilometers distant and the distant roar of Chutes de Roxton Falls twenty kilometers away offer a sense of geographic scale to those who travel beyond the immediate village borders. Even further, the expanse of Parc national de la Yamaska sits thirty-four kilometers away, grounding the region in a wider natural context that defines the edge of the local horizon near the Côtes de l’Égypte. The foundation of Saint-Nazaire-d'Acton reflects a history deeply rooted in the endurance of farming families who carved their livelihood from these fertile plains. Local industry maintains a commitment to agriculture, with a pace of life that favors the persistent turning of the seasons over the frantic pulse of urban centers. The community gathers in spaces that have hosted generations, preserving a quiet character that values the weight of tradition and the simple, honest utility of the rural landscape. During the late afternoon, one might observe the steady movement of machinery or the quiet stillness of the roads, revealing a place that prioritizes the continuity of its own quiet existence. In the surrounding geography, the influence of the nearby natural features persists, though the daily life of Saint-Nazaire-d'Acton remains centered on the immediate, tangible reality of its fields and the enduring connections between its people.
