The St. Lawrence Seaway marks its 50th anniversary this week. Living at the Barricades looks back on the time before the Seaway changed the face of the river, the impacts it had on the people in the community, and what the Seaway means for our future. We’ll hear from Jen Nalbone of Great Lakes United, Jane Craig of The Lost Villages Historical Society, Jennifer Caddick of Upper St. Lawrence Riverkeeper, and freelance journalist Alex Roslin.
