Soo Locks Key to Great Lakes Shipping and Trade History
The Soo Locks handle more tonnage in an eight month season than the Suez and Panama Canals combined in a year. Area expert notes the locks top local tourism, behind only Mackinac Bridge and a major auto plant, with deep regional history from Ojibway names to U.S. flag changes and War of 1812 acts. Roughly 70 percent of U.S. iron ore bound for steel mills uses this route, indicating its national economic importance.
