No, glaciers form from snow that falls high in the mountains then consolidates and refreezes into ice under the weight of later snows. This ice and snow then flows down the mountains into valleys producing a characteristic U-shaped erosion pattern in those valleys.

The Great Lakes & Your Welcome :)
Here are some facts about glaciers......Glaciers are big masses of ice left over from the ice ageWhen a glacier moves it cuts a basin into the Earth. For example, the basins of the 5 Great Lakes were carved by an advancing and receeding glacier over millions of years.They have been around for millions of yearsSome glaciers can move up to a foot a day that's mile a year
candian shild has old eroded mountantins .
As glaciers move, they can carve out deep depressions in the land called cirques. When the glacier retreats or melts, these cirques can become filled with water, forming lakes. Glaciers can also create moraines, which are piles of debris that dam up valleys, creating lakes behind them.

The Malaspina Glacier carved the Great Lakes.

in mountain basins which have had valley glaciers
Glaciers made basins and when the glaciers melted it left lots of lakes.
The Great Lakes and the Finger Lakes were carved by ice glaciation in the valleys. Lakes in Minnesota and Wisconsin were gouged out by glaciers and later filled with water from melting glaciers. Niagara falls was formed when the glaciers created dams on the rivers and changed the flow.
the Finger Lakes
Glaciers
yes, it does
they carved them out
