the historic Rideau Canal waterway winds south from Ottawa through towns, farms and woodlands for 202 kilometres (126 miles) towards Kingston on Lake Ontario. Constructed after the War of 1812 on fears of an American expansion across the St. Lawrence River, the Rideau Canal served as an alternative shipping route between Montréal and Kingston.
The intent of this process is to hire students for the summer of 2023, for a determinate period. Qualified students may be offered other student employment opportunities at the Rideau Canal.
