Information at this website results from the continuing efforts of grassroots volunteers
with various backgrounds
who
share a certain affinity, indeed a love,
for the Ontario portion
of
the
St. Lawrence River
between Kingston and Cornwall.
The objective of our project is to obtain "Canadian Heritage River"
status
for the Canadian portion
of the
Upper St. Lawrence River.
The project began in early 2007 and is expected to
take
three or more years complete.
