Book Description
"The Lachine Canal National Historic Site of Canada is located in the southern part of the island of Montreal. This 14.5 kilometre long engineering structure was built between 1821 and 1825 in order to bypass the Lachine Rapids. The canal was designated of national historic significance in 1929. This new management plan is part of the renewal of the site and its surroundings, in the midst of a full urban redevelopment process. The plan will also allow the canal to better position itself within Montreal's tourist and cultural activities. The vision for the Lachine Canal aims to create an emblematic and inspiring place, supported by a community committed to its protection and improvement"--Executive summary, p. vii.

Book Description
The Lachine Canal, part of Parks Canada's national historic sites network since 1978, is a recreational park extending 13.4 kilometres between the old Port of Montreal and Lake Saint Louis. This report summarizes opinions, suggestions, and comments arising from a public consultation program that was part of the revision of the management plan for the Lachine Canal National Historic Site. The first part provides details on the consultation exercise itself, while the second reports on opinions regarding proposals presented in the information document entitled 'The Future of the Lachine Canal National Historic Site.' Opinions are summarized under the following headings: Parks Canada objectives for the Canal; commemoration and conservation objectives; development concerns; issues and guidelines related to such matters as preserving heritage resources, decontaminating the Canal, and using Canal banks and waters; and the development concept for the Canal site.
