yes no they had cheese
The Great Lakes are substantially above sea level.
The Rush-Bogat Agreement
Big enough to require lifeboat drill in passenger ships. (I know, I've done it)
Niagara Falls is a bit difficult to get over in a ship.
The locks allowed large ships, carrying heavier cargoes, to sail down the St. Lawrence and enter the Great Lakes.
The Soo Locks allow ships to travel between Lake Superior and the lower Great Lakes. The locks pass an average of 10,000 ships per year....
Yes! All of the great lakes are interconnected. Between L.Erie and L.Ontario is a river that has Niagara falls, but there is a lock system that goes around the falls that the ships use to navigate. This is true for rivers between the other great lakes.
