The Rideau Canal was constructed over a period of about 6 years, with work beginning in 1826 and largely completed by 1832. The canal was built to provide a secure shipping route between Montreal and Kingston, bypassing the often treacherous waters of the St. Lawrence River. While the main channel was finished in 1832, additional work and improvements continued for several years. Today, it remains an important historical and recreational waterway in Canada.
