Au nord de notre vie (In the North of Our Lives) is an album by CANO, released in 1977.[1][2] It was the band's second album and its last with founding member André Paiement.

The album's centrepiece track was a suite of three poems by writer Robert Dickson, including the poem that gave the album its title.[2]

The 1980 National Film Board documentary, Cano - notes sur une expérience collective, documents the recording of this album and highlights each member in the studio.[3][4]
