The Welland Canal Corridor is the backbone of the Great Lakes trade economy. Located in Ontario's Niagara Region, the Canal links Lakes Ontario and Erie to a wide web of infrastructure, from 400-series highways to Class 1 and short-line rail to abundant hydropower.

The story of the Canal is the story of prosperity for communities and businesses tied into its immense network of infrastructure and international trade. The cities located along the Welland Canal Corridor are supporting this page to spread the message about how Niagara's marine heartland strengthens not just our region, but Ontario, Canada and the United States along with it.
