Lake Ontario (French: Lac Ontario) is one of the five Great Lakes of North America. It is surrounded on the north, west, and southwest by the Canadian province of Ontario, and on the south and east by the American state of New York, whose water boundaries meet in the middle of the lake. Ontario, Canada's most populous province, was named for the lake. In the Wyandot (Huron) language, ontarío means “Lake of Shining Waters”. Its primary inlet is the Niagara River from Lake Erie. The last in the Great Lakes chain, Lake Ontario serves as the outlet to the Atlantic Ocean via the St. Lawrence River.
Ontario (i/ɒnˈtɛərioʊ/) is one of the ten provinces of Canada, located in east-central Canada. It is Canada's most populous province by a large margin, accounting for nearly 40 percent of all Canadians, and is the second largest province in total area. Ontario is fourth largest in total area when the territories of the Northwest Territories and Nunavut are included. It is home to the nation's capital city, Ottawa, and the nation's most populous city, Toronto.
Ontario is bordered by the province of Manitoba to the west, Hudson Bay and James Bay to the north, and Quebec to the east, and to the south by the US states of (from west to east) Minnesota, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York. All of Ontario's 2,700 km (1,678 mi) border with the United States follows inland waterways: from the west at Lake of the Woods, eastward along the major rivers and lakes of the Great Lakes/Saint Lawrence River drainage system. These are the Rainy River, the Pigeon River, Lake Superior, the St. Marys River, Lake Huron, the St. Clair River, Lake St. Clair, the Detroit River, Lake Erie, the Niagara River, Lake Ontario and along the St. Lawrence River from Kingston, Ontario, to the Quebec boundary just east of Cornwall, Ontario.
A lake is an area of variable size filled with water, localized in a basin, that is surrounded by land, apart from any river or other outlet that serves to feed or drain the lake. Lakes lie on land and are not part of the ocean (except for sea lochs in Scotland and Ireland), and therefore are distinct from lagoons, and are also larger and deeper than ponds, though there are no official or scientific definitions. Lakes can be contrasted with rivers or streams, which are usually flowing. However most lakes are fed and drained by rivers and streams.
Natural lakes are generally found in mountainous areas, rift zones, and areas with ongoing glaciation. Other lakes are found in endorheic basins or along the courses of mature rivers. In some parts of the world there are many lakes because of chaotic drainage patterns left over from the last Ice Age. All lakes are temporary over geologic time scales, as they will slowly fill in with sediments or spill out of the basin containing them.
Many lakes are artificial and are constructed for industrial or agricultural use, for hydro-electric power generation or domestic water supply, or for aesthetic or recreational purposes.

It’s no secret charter captains had to work extra hard to catch salmon on Lake Ontario during the summer of 2014. It was a frustrating year for even the more experienced trollers. Abnormal weather conditions take credit for much of the melee. It seems, most likely, much colder than normal lake temperatures, a slow developing summer, late ice out and other factors could possibly have the salmon confused. Regardless, patterns weren't normal. And, fish counts were down on the eastern edge of Lake Ontario. Meanwhile, after this outing hope had been restored on the big lake. Following months of scattered success, signs of larger schools of salmon showed off the Port of Oswego the week we fished. Many guides scored limits (that’s three salmon, per angler here) and noticed a fresh pods of sal...

http://bookinghunter.com Toronto is the largest city in Canada and the provincial capital of Ontario. It is located in Southern Ontario on the northwestern shore of Lake Ontario. The history of Toronto began in the late 18th century when the British Crown purchased its land from the Mississaugas of the New Credit. The British established a settlement there, called the Town of York, which its lieutenant governor, John Graves Simcoe, designated as the capital of Upper Canada. The city was ransacked in the Battle of York during the War of 1812. In 1834, York was incorporated as a city and renamed Toronto. The most important places to visit in Toronto are: Niagara Falls (located an hour and a half away from Toronto, awe-inspiring Niagara Falls attracts visitors from around the world), CN Tow...

A feature video of my September 2016 trip to Echoing Lake Camp in far northwestern Ontario. Located 500 kilometers north of Sioux Lookout near the Manitoba border, Echoing is easily the furthest north operating camp within the province. Its waters have rarely been fished, and the surrounding lakes accessible by camp float plane are still unknown. They have yet to be fished by anyone! We had astounding fishing for incredible numbers of lake trout, trophy northern pike, and as many walleyes as we wanted. Future guests will experience the trip of a lifetime with the opportunity to explore lakes that that are truly virgin. www.echoinglake.com

Niagara Falls is the collective name for three waterfalls that straddle the international border between Canada and the United States; more specifically, between the province of Ontario and the state of New York. They form the southern end of the Niagara Gorge. From largest to smallest, the three waterfalls are the Horseshoe Falls, the American Falls and the Bridal Veil Falls. The Horseshoe Falls lie on the Canadian side and the American Falls on the American side, separated by Goat Island. The smaller Bridal Veil Falls are also located on the American side, separated from the other waterfalls by Luna Island. The international boundary line was originally drawn through Horseshoe Falls in 1819, but the boundary has long been in dispute due to natural erosion and construction. Located on th...

it's a long walk home when you feel dead on your feet
and it's hard to hold your head up on nights like these
you can feel the warehouse hours breaking you slowly
your letter said it's only a fifteen hour drive
is there room in Toronto for one more
can I lay low on the west shore of Lake Ontario
hard times going around, they're getting harder still
and you can hear the laughter from the mansion on the hill
and the time clocks marking the minutes
and it sounds like gunshots
the only plan that I got is leaving everything behind
is there room in Toronto for one more
can I lay low on the west shore of Lake Ontario
I'm not paying what I owe
I'm headed north through Ohio to Lake Ontario
