What is the southern most point in Canada?
The most southerly part of Canada is Middle Island. It is
located in Lake Erie, just 100 meters from the Canada-US Border,
between Pelee Island, Canada, and Sandusky, USA. Pelee Island is
the southernmost inhabited part of Canada, and Point Pelee is the
southernmost part of mainland Canada. There is archaeological
evidence of aboriginal occupation of Middle Island dating back
2,500 years. It played a small role in the Underground Railroad,
and was prominent as a "rum-running" haven during Prohibition.
Middle Island is uninhabited, and is not open to visitors. It was
purchased by the Nature Conservancy of Canada in 1999 from private
American owners and is now part of Canada's Point Pelee National
Park.
