North Bay's best kept secret has to be told!

Why? To protect it. Of all the beautiful places around North Bay to canoe and kayak there is an historical waterway of critical importance to all of us as Canadians, all Canadians! Where would we be without our living history? We are on the verge of finding that out. I encourage you to explore this particular link and find out just what we could lose. It is not only pristinely beautiful but seriously endangered by industrialists who are completely and irreversibly bereft of any sense of duty and responsibility to our Canadian Heritage.
