Online Dispensary in La Prairie, QC

La Prairie holds a genuine claim to Canadian firsts. On July 21, 1836, a wood-burning steam locomotive named Dorchester pulled out of town hauling the very first train on the country’s first public railroad, the 25-kilometre Champlain and Saint Lawrence line running to Saint-Jean. Montreal merchants including John Molson backed the project, and the locomotive earned the nickname Iron Kitten for its skittish early test runs, held at night specifically so as not to frighten the public. Long before any of that, Jesuit missionaries had settled the site in 1647 under a grant called La-Prairie-de-la-Madeleine, and it was here, working among Mohawk converts, that the story of Kateri Tekakwitha, later Canada’s first Indigenous Catholic saint, first unfolded.

The Iroquois name for the site, Kentake, meant at the prairie, and English and Dutch settlers from New York clashed with the community more than once, including two battles fought on a single day in August 1691. La Prairie was officially incorporated as a city in March 1846, only to see a major fire tear through the settlement that same year, contributing to a slow decline once the Victoria Bridge later diverted rail traffic away from town. Brickyards revived the local economy around 1890, and one of those yards remains among the largest in Canada today. Now a South Shore suburb directly across the river from Montreal, La Prairie is home to over 26,000 residents. Weed Market ships to La Prairie addresses the same way it does anywhere else in Quebec, fast, tracked and completely discreet.
