Summary

The chosen location of Port Colborne, Ontario, Canada, signifies the opening of the Welland Canal in late March of 2025. The constant hum of the freighters and lakers, which ply these waters on the Lake Erie coast, are mixed with those of a nearby playground, gulls, Canada Geese and Red-wing blackbirds. As the ice on the coast is partially frozen, there are few sounds of water along the shoreline. Recorded by Troy Ouellette.
