What happened
The Municipality of South Dundas expressed interest in buying a 13,536-square-metre tract of land along the Iroquois canal from Transport Canada. Transport Canada acknowledged the interest and outlined its process for divesting the land. This potential purchase follows a year-long discussion regarding who is responsible for maintaining the scenic lock viewing area.

Why it matters
