| Spatial Coverage | Canada United States Saint Lawrence Seaway |
| Description | Cartoon shows a woodsman (labeled "Canada") about to launch a canoe (labeled "St. Lawrence Seaway Project") telling a disturbed Uncle Sam, "Well Sam, I'm ready to paddle it alone." The proposed seaway, a joint U.S.-Canadian project designed to make navigable the St. Lawrence River between Lake Ontario and Montreal, was opposed by American transportation interests. The cartoon reflects Canada's threats in 1953 to build the seaway alone. |
