Progress is underway to restore Horne's Ferry, which connects Cape Vincent to Wolfe Island, Ontario.

Why it matters
The ferry's closure two years ago was noted by Richard Allen to have hurt business on Wolfe Island. The restoration aims to re-establish a connection between the two communities, which is relevant to the regional economy of Frontenac County.
