Rideau Canal, Ottawa, Ontario |
The canal locks control the flow of water when they are opened and closed in order to allow the boats to move through them. It is the oldest continuously operated canal system in North America, and in 2007, was registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You can read more about it here.
