Lavaltrie is a city located within the D’Autray Regional County Municipality in the southern part of the region of Lanaudiere, Quebec, Canada, northeast of Montreal outside of the suburban sprawl of the northern crown (i.e., the suburbs located north of Laval). The population according to the town’s website is 12,148 within a land surface of about 70 square kilometers with the majority of the territory being used for agricultural activities. .
The origins of Lavaltrie go back to the 17th century. Jean Talon, the intendant of New France, gave parcels of land (known as manors) to various lords. The land where Lavaltrie is now situated was given to a lieutenant, Sieur la Valtrie, by Talon in 1672. In the 18th century, land occupants built a new roadway along the Saint Lawrence River linking Montreal and Quebec City, named the Chemin Du Roy and now known as Quebec Route 138. For many decades, Lavaltrie was located in the center of a large series of manors owned by lords intended to develop the agricultural sector.
