One only needs to have a slight idea of how Canada’s geography takes shape in order to understand the perhaps fanatical emphasis Canadians and their governments have always placed on transportation. Canada and many other “New World” countries (including the United States) have traditionally placed a great value on the importance of transportation, largely due to the fact that in order for these huge countries to stay cohesive both politically and economically, there has to be a great transportation infrastructure in place. For Old World countries, size usually wasn’t a factor, but when it comes to the sprawling expanses of North America and the unique geographical challenge within it; any construction of a major transportation system was and is a big endeavour.

In Canada, one of the great historical challenges was to provide a way for goods to move from the Great Lakes to the open ocean, thus avoiding the high costs (and sometimes impossibility) of transport overland. The answer was to build canals that ran from the Great Lakes to the Atlantic Ocean.
