This book presents a comprehensive examination of the history and ongoing challenges of providing access to water transportation along the Great Lakes and St Lawrence waterways of Canada.

The text is enriched by the inclusion of the words and decisions of leading figures in these endeavors, resulting in a work that is not only historically informative but also practically relevant today as debate continues over the most effective means of moving Canadian and US goods and raw materials between the Great Lakes, the Atlantic Ocean, and the world.
