This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Stratford, 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 Stratford.
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.

Stratford is a township municipality in Stratford; Le Granit, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Stratford is located at 45.7833°N, 71.2833°W.
Stratford rests within a landscape defined by the modest rise of the Colline Brousseau, where the land holds a stillness that seems to gather as the sun dips behind the horizon. It lies 33.0 km north-north-west of Franceville, QC (from Franceville, QC: bearing 349°T), and is situated 14.5 km south-south-east of Disraeli. The Décharge du Lac Elgin flows with a quiet persistence through this terrain, offering a cold, clear edge to the fields and woods that mark the local horizon. In the distance, the presence of Lac Thor lies about 4 km away, its waters reflecting the shifting clouds, while the wilder expanse of Parc national de Frontenac sits about 11 km away, anchoring the region in a deeper, more protected silence. The air here carries a crisp, lingering quality, particularly at dusk when the light turns thin and sharp against the timbered slopes. Life in Stratford moves with the steady pulse of a place shaped by its proximity to the earth and the industry of those who work it. Historically, the economy has looked toward the land and its resources, fostering a character of resilience and quiet independence among the people who make their homes here. The daily movements of the residents reflect a long-standing commitment to the local rhythm, where the demands of the seasons dictate the labor of the day. Whether tending to the land or managing the small-scale enterprises that sustain the local economy, the people of Stratford maintain a connection to their surroundings that feels both practical and deeply rooted. Even as the modern world shifts, the focus remains on the immediate beauty of the Décharge du Lac Elgin and the enduring shelter provided by the surrounding hills.
Stratford s'étire avec une humilité tranquille près de la Colline Brousseau, là où la terre semble retenir son souffle avant de s'incliner vers les rives de Décharge du Lac Elgin. Dans la lumière basse du crépuscule, l'air acquiert une densité particulière, cette fraîcheur limpide propre aux hauteurs du Granit qui enveloppe les toits et les champs. À quelques kilomètres, le Lac Thor repose dans un silence immuable, tandis que le Parc national de Frontenac dessine une frontière sauvage à peine plus loin, rappelant aux habitants la rudesse et la beauté de ce relief façonné par les âges. Stratford porte en elle la persévérance des bâtisseurs, ceux qui ont jadis défriché ces sols pierreux pour y installer une vie simple, rythmée par la rudesse des hivers et la générosité brève des étés. Les activités agricoles et forestières forment la colonne vertébrale de ce quotidien, un labeur silencieux qui se transmet sans grands discours, dans le geste sûr de ceux qui connaissent le nom de chaque parcelle. En observant les ombres s'allonger sur les routes de campagne, on perçoit une identité forgée par le granit et l'eau, une présence humble qui refuse de s'effacer devant le passage rapide des années.
