Deep Waterway on St Lawrence Divides Nations
Roosevelt pushes a proposed 27 foot deep waterway linking Great Lakes ports with the Atlantic. The plan includes dams on the St Lawrence rapids, 2,000,000 horsepower power delivery, Niagara Welland Canal deepening, and a $300 million cost. Supporters say it would unlock ocean access, lower freight costs, and spur new industries. Opponents warn it harms rail freight, harms Canadian interests, and could shift shipping to inland ports.
