Chateauguay is an off-island suburb of Montreal, in southwestern Quebec, located both on the Chateauguay River and Lac St-Louis, which is a section of the St. Lawrence River. The population as of the Canada 2006 Census was 42,786. The land was first given to Charles LeMoyne by the governor of New France at the time, the Comte de Frontenac with the intention of setting up a seigneurie in the area.
Afterwards the seigneurie was assumed by Zacharie Robutel de la Noue in 1706. In 1763 France relinqueshed its claims in Canada and Chateauguay was now under British mandate. The seigneurie was bought by Marguerite d’Youville, a founder of the Quebec religious society the Grey Nuns in 1765 and 10 years later construction began on the Church of Saint-Joachim.
