Summary:
The
St
.
Lawrence
River
forms part of the boundary between Canada and the United States and connects the
Great
Lakes
with the Atlantic Ocean. This informative book follows this important commercial waterway across the provinces of Ontario and Quebec to where it reaches the Gulf of
St

of the fur and timber trades, the

river
is also important as a source of electric power and a home to abundant wildlife. In addition, about one-fourth of Canada's population lives in the
St
.
