When you cruise Ontario's water ways, you are not only travelling through country that is rich in fish and game, and in its variety of scenic beau- ty, you are also using the routes of Canadian history. They are the routes that have been used from the time of early French exploration; the map-making of Peter Pond; from the colorful era when cour- eurs de bois paddled canoes laden with trade goods to the northwest and re- turned with great cargoes of rich furs to the eastern market places; from the age of bitter rivalry between the Nor"westers and Hudson's Bay traders; the colonial repercussions of the Seven Years War, and then the War of 1812; through the roaring years of the loggers, when huge rafts of squared timbers were floated to mills and shipyards. Some of the canals you use were first dug more than a century ago. In 1832, Col. John By joined Kingston and Ottawa via the Cataraqui, Rideau Lakes and River and a system of locks and canals; it was to ensure that water traf- fic would not be stopped by American domination of the upper St. Lawrence. About the same time the rapids at the mouth of the St. Clair were dredged out and a canal built between Lakes Ont- ario and Erie to get around the Niagara cataracts, so that by 1848 small sailing craft could penetrate the upper Great Lakes. That first Ontario-Erie canal, in- cidentally, was only eight feet deep and required 40 locks to overcome the 326- foot difference in water levels. Today's $130 million Welland Canal has only seven locks. The first of five locks at Sault Ste. Marie was opened in 1895. The five locks have for long handled more ship- ping than the Panama, Suez and Kiel canals combined. About the time Scott's Landing be- came Peterborough, around 1904, work was resumed on a waterway designed to connect Lake Ontario and Georgian Bay. The project was only partially completed, but enough was done to make the Trent-Severn system one of today's most delightful cruiseways. One of the areas not accessible from the Great Lakes is Lake of the Woods with its 14,000 islands, spectacular scenery, rewarding angling and secluded anchorages. Boats must be trailed or shipped in, because a height of land and the rugged water trails of the an- cient Quetico-Superior fur trade route prevent cruising access, except by canoe. There are many other water-areas, like Lake of the Woods, which are ac- cessible only over land. Indeed, any boat owner who denies himself the pleasure of exploring the inland waterways is missing out on a lot of fun. The point is this: there are cruise- ways in Ontario for every type of craft, from canoes to luxury cruisers and the journeys can be long or short. What must be remembered, of course, is that common sense must be used. It would be foolish to venture on the Great Lakes in a canoe, just as it would be to try to thread a narrow, rocky waterway in a big cabin cruiser. There are other possibilities, too, for those with the time and equipmeut. From Ontario, for instance, one can cross to New York State, get into the Erie Canal, thence to the Hudson River, travel south to the inland waterway that leads to Florida's west coast, pick a way through the keys to the east coast, get into the protected waterway that leads all the way to Mexico, or move up the Mississippi River all the way to the canal that links the river with Chicago, which puts one back on the Great Lakes.
