Other Reasons to Be In Niagara
Brock’s Monument: Canada and the United States today share the longest peaceful border in
the world. Almost two hundred years ago, however, control of the Niagara River section of this
international border was a constant dispute. Many decisive battles of the War of 1812 occurred along
both sides of the river. Brock’s Monument is built in honour of Major General Sir Isaac Brock’s fatal
attempt to retake Queenston Heights. General Sheaffe completed this mission which was the turning
point of the war. 2012 will be the bicentennial of this war. There are many special events planned to
commemorate. Visit the official website “Visit 1812” for details.
Wineries of Niagara: Niagara area very rich in grapes. Niagara on the Lake has 22 wineries for your
pleasure. Make a day to enjoy tasting and bring home your favourites.
WELLAND CANAL: The St. Lawrence River and the five Great Lakes constitute the greatest inland
waterway in the world. From the Atlantic Ocean, it extends 3700 kilometres (2300 miles) into
the very heart of North America, forming a vital commercial shipping route. The only problem ...
a major obstacle called Niagara Falls preventing ships from sailing between Lakes Erie and Ontario.
The solution ... the WELLAND CANAL, by-passing the Falls and lifting vessels over the Niagara
Escarpment. The first Welland Canal opened in 1829 with 39 locks and entered the Niagara River
above the Falls at Chippewa. It was lengthened in 1833 to Port Colborne with 40 locks. The first canal
was constructed of wood and has completely disappeared, disintegrated, dismantled or buried. The
present canal is the fourth and was completed in 1932. The total length of the canal system is 43.13
km (26.8 metres) with little traffic; the average transit time is 8-12 hours. The Captain must be in
command of the bridge for the complete transit. He may grab a meal or lay down in the wheelhouse
while the ship is being raised or lowered. Most Locks are 261.8 metres (859') long 24.4 metres (80')
wide and 24.8 metres (81.5') deep. A ship is raised or lowered 14.2 metres (46.5'). When the ships are
“climbing the escarpment” in the Flight Locks (locks 4,5,6) they’re being raised 42.5 metres (139.5').
In all from Lake Ontario to Lake Erie, the ships are being raised 99.5 metres (326.5'). Ships up to a
maximum of 225.5 metres (740') long and 23.7 metres (78') wide can now transit the Welland Canal.
The cost for commercial vehicles to pass through the locks is from $19,000 to $38,000. Pleasure crafts
cannot be less than 6 metres (20') in length or under one ton of weight. The cost is $80.00 Canadian.
It takes approximately 33 minutes for a freighter to enter a lock, be raised or lowered, then depart.
The actual raising or lowering takes 10-12 minutes. The remainder is positioning the ship and tying
her up. This is called SPOTTING A SHIP. It takes 94.5 million litres or 21 million gallons of water to fill a
lock. NO PUMPS OF ANY KIND ARE USED TO FILL OR EMPTY THE LOCKS. It is all done by gravity-flow from
Lake Erie down (north) to Lake Ontario. The canal operates 24-7 from late March to Christmas week.
By then, the ice is often fairly thick and sotimes the last ship through has to be escorted by tugs. From
January to March, the Canal may be drained anywhere for repairs or reconstruction.
Finally, a ship is called “SHE” because it is the belief of sailors that a ship is very close to being a living entity, endowed
with a spirit and a distinct personality, demanding respect and, given proper consideration, most dependable. With
sailors being away for months on end, this near-human being took on the beauty and mystique of a woman.
