Vintage Postcard: Lachine Canal, Quebec

View of Lachine Locks, Lachine, P.Q. (Quebec)

Lachine Locks

This is one of the canals which was rendered obsolete by the opening of the St-Lawrence Seaway.

It was finally closed in the 1970s – but has recently re-opened for pleasure craft.

  2. Now that I’m back online and settled in (with all my furniture and stuff!), I can really relax and read my favorite blogs.

    I love the postcards and information you have been sharing!
