*** About Ottawa River: Known as the border between the provinces of Ontario and Quebec, the Ottawa River is a vital waterway with a rich history in Canada. It has been an important trade route for Indigenous peoples long before European colonization, playing a crucial role in the fur trade during the colonial era. The river's extensive watershed supports not just a diverse ecosystem, but also numerous communities along its banks today, who depend on it for everything from hydroelectric power to recreational activities.
