Lower Canada was a Canadian province which was in existence at the same time as the smaller Upper Canada which lay to the south: 1791-1841. The earliest tokens carried various inscriptions; look for BANK OF MONTREAL, BANQUE DU PEUPLE, PROVINCE DU BAS CANADA, and other phrases. All Lower Canada coins were made of copper and were denominated in pennies, also using an amount in sous.
Lower Canada coins for sale these days include the copper coins of this period and the various tokens made available for circulation among the large province, even being minted after Lower and Upper Canada combined to form the Province of Canada in 1841. Today, the area that was Lower Canada is part of Quebec and Newfoundland and Labrador.
