The National Historic Site and Canadian Heritage River was formed via a chain of scenic lakes, rivers and canals winding from Kingston on Lake Ontario to Ottawa, our Nation’s Capital. The Rideau offers 202 kilometres (125 miles) of beautiful shorelines and memorable natural and historic sights for visitors and residents alike. It was opened in 1832 after two river systems were linked using 47 locks. Today the boater’s paradise remains one of the oldest continuously operating canals in North America. Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Destination, the Rideau is operated and preserved by Parks Canada. The canal’s wetlands are home to rare plant and animal species and a diverse fish population. There are four distinct natural landscapes along the route: the Ottawa Clay Plain, the Smiths Falls Limestone Plain, the Frontenac Axis extension of the rugged Canadian Shield and the Napanee Plain. It is Canada’s 14th and Ontario’s only World Heritage Site. This diverse waterway is a delight to explore by canoe, kayak, tour and motorboat, or experience it by automobile, bicycle or on foot along the Rideau Trail and the Rideau Heritage Route. where1000 lifestyle Islands and growsRideau good Canal 5 Waterways business The Rideau Canal was considered a busy national highway until the 1950s when rapids on the St. Lawrence River were tamed by a series of locks and commercial traffic switched to the more direct route into the Great Lakes. St. Lawrence Seaway The St. Lawrence River is known as “Le Fleuve,” the Greatest Canadian River, and we are fortunate to have it flowing past our community here in Leeds Grenville. Also known as the St. Lawrence Seaway, the river is both a trade corridor as well as a recreational waterway attracting millions of visitors to its waters and its scenic 1000 Islands every year. There are dozens of shipwrecks under the river’s waves perfect for world-class, fresh-water scuba diving. The river stretches about 600 kilometres (370 miles) from Montreal to Lake Ontario, part of the interior Great Lakes. The Seaway enables shipping trade from the Atlantic Ocean to travel deep into the heart of North America to Lake Superior. The St. Lawrence Seaway Management Corporation oversees the movement of marine traffic. Deep-draft ocean vessels, lakers, tour boats and recreational watercraft have been sharing this unique passageway since 1959. There are many viewing points along the river close to the shipping channel, including Cardinal, Johnstown, Prescott, Maitland, Blockhouse Island and the Brockville Narrows. Crossover Island, where freighters cross from the Canadian to American channel, 6 is located in New York State close to the Canadian border. www.leedsgrenville.com/visitwww.leedsgrenville.com/visit The St. Lawrence Seaway is considered one of the world’s greatest and most strategic commercial waterways with a top-notch safety and reliability record. The seaway was built through a binational partnership between Canada and the United States. where lifestyle 7 grows good business Explore our natural attractions There are 24 inland lakes with great diversity of the Frontenac Arch with its classic rock in their sizes and attributes.

For residents and visitors alike, it offers 180 kilometres (112 miles) of mixed-use trails. The forest is comprised of approximately 27% wetland, 30% conifer plantation and 40% mixed forest. Limerick has Forest Stewardship Council certification. The Frontenac Arch Biosphere Reserve is a source of pride. The UNESCO designated it as a World Biosphere Reserve in 2002 for its global significance. The Frontenac Arch is a ridge of ancient granite that joins the Adirondack Mountains to the Canadian Shield. To many, the Canadian Shield is the quintessential Canadian landscape, the rugged north and a land of lakes and forests. The Frontenac Arch and the Canadian Shield were a massive range of towering mountains at one time. It took hundreds of millions of years for these mountains to weather down to their roots. Five great forest regions and the eastern continent meet and intermingle here, giving the region Canada’s greatest diversity of plant and animal species over an area of approximately 2,700-square kilometres. The Arch connects the Canadian Shield and the Boreal forest to the forests of the Adirondack and Appalachian Mountains. The river valley formed a route from the Great Lakes forest heartland of the continent to the forests of the Atlantic Coast. where1000 lifestyle Islands and Rideau Canal 9 grows good business Waterways Encounter our heritage The United Empire Loyalists began settling Fort Wellington in Prescott was built during this area in the late 1700s.

(Captain Richard Bonnycastle of the Royal Engineers, London, 1842) RIDEAU CANAL NATIONAL HISTORIC SITE OF CANADA Management Plan Foreword Canada’s national historic sites, national parks and national marine conservation areas represent the soul of our country. They are a central part of who we are and what we are. They are places of beauty and wonder and heritage. Each tells its own story. Together, they connect Canadians to our roots, to our future and to each other. We see a future in which each of the national historic sites of Canada, whether federally owned or not, enjoys sound commemorative health, and in which our system of sites evolves as our country evolves. Our national historic sites will be places for all Canadians to experience and learn from. They will help our communities to be vibrant and creative, and contribute to our efforts to revitalize Canada’s cities.

Regards. r "Rem" Burns Rural Residential Lot, #236 Background Information: This irregular shaped lot on the north side of the River Road and the lot on the south side of the River Road, in the Hamlet of Ivy Lea were both part of the one hundred acre operational farm owned and operated by my parents, J. Elmer and Vera Burns. This farm property started at the St. Lawrence River and ran north, across the River Road in Ivy Lea, beyond the now known Thousand Islands Parkway and ending at the Reynolds Road. The operational farm property included a farmhouse /summer kitchen, and numerous farm buildings, woodshed, machinery drive shed, barn, chicken coop, piggery and icehouse / storage building and granary. Livestock included beef and dairy cattle, horses, pigs, chickens and geese. At that point, in time, seventy years ago all this property was zoned Agricultural, as it was a working farm.. My father decided to sell the majority of the farm property in the early 1950's to Thomas and Ruby Cirtwell who owned a farm on Hill Island.

Built in Prescott during the War of 1812, Fort Wellington de- fended the vital St. Lawrence shipping route.

Fort Wellington was again called into service in 1837 when Upper and Lower Canada rose up in rebellion. The fort be- Photos ©Fort Wellington came the main depot for the area’s militia and in 1838, mili- tia stationed at Fort Wellington were called into battle. Expecting to be seen as liberators, American rebels landed at nearby Windmill Point but were met by 2,000 British soldiers and militia instead. In 1923, Fort Wellington became a National Historic Site and is now operated by Parks Canada. The fort consists of earthworks surrounded by a palisade. Inside, you can stroll by the officers’ quarters, discover the coponniere tunnel, explore the three-storey blockhouse, and chat with the costumed interpretive guides. Children can make their visit an adventure by becoming Parks Canada Xplorers to discover this unique fort. The site also boasts a new visitors center featuring the wreck of an 1812 -era gunboat. Daily visits are self-guided and guided tours of the fort are offered every Saturday and Sunday throughout July and August beginning at 1:30pm. During the summer months, the fort offers summer camps for children and also hosts an annual Canada Day Celebration every July 1st from 10:00am to 4:00pm.

Before the advent of the railway or the construction of the Rideau canal the St. Lawrence river was the only direct means of communication between Quebec, Montreal, and the region now known as the province of Ontario, with the exception of the then far-away and still more precarious Ottawa. Many of the historic events that marked the contests of the British and French and the British and the United States troops for the possession of Canada were therefore enacted on the great river.
