In addition to their priceless scenic beauty, many of Canada´s rivers
have been instrumental n the development of our natural resource industries.
"The noblest stream in all Nova Scotia", the Margaree River is world-renowed
for its salmon and gaspereau fisheries. The Margaree rises in the spectacular
Cape Breton Highlands and courses down through farmland and wetlands before
emptying into the Northumberland Strait. En route, it supports the area´s
fishing, farming, logging and tourist insdustries.
