Port Colborne, Ontario
Port Colborne is a city in Ontario, Canada that is located on Lake Erie, at the southern end of the Welland Canal, in the Niagara Region of Southern Ontario. The original settlement, known as Gravelly Bay, dates from 1832 and was renamed after Sir John Colborne, a British war hero and the Lieutenant Governor of Upper Canada at the time of the opening of the (new) southern terminus of the First Welland Canal in 1833. The city's population in 2021 was 20,033. History In pre-colonial times, Indigenous people of the Onguiaahra (Neutral Iroquois) lived in the area, due in part to the ready availability of flint and chert from outcroppings on the Onondaga Escarpment. This advantage was diminished by the introduction of firearms by European traders, and they were driven out by the Six Nations of the Iroquois around 1650 as part of the Beaver Wars. Originally called Gravelly Bay, after the shallow, bedrock-floored bay upon which it sits, today's City of Port Colborne traces its roots ba ...

Boatnerd
The boatnerd corporation, a registered not for profit corporation, circulates information about vessels that ply the North American Great Lakes. When Acheson Ventures provided space for a headquarters for the organization in their Maritime Center overlooking the St Clair River, they called boatnerd ''"the most widely-used website for Great Lakes maritime information."'' Reporters consider the boatnerd site reliable enough that they cite or quote it by name in their articles. The organization was profiled by ''The Globe and Mail'' in 2008. The organization holds annual festivals, at sites of interest to those interested in maritime commerce on the Great Lakes. ''The Globe and Mail'' profiled boatnerd when the 2008 festival was held in a shipyard in Port Colborne, Ontario, where the ''Calumet'', an 80-year-old lake freighter was being scrapped. According to ''The Globe and Mail'' the site gets over 20 million page views a month. According to ''The Globe and Mail'' the site's voluntee ...
