The Chambly Canal, which connects Lake Champlain with the Richelieu River, is very narrow and beautiful winding through rural Canadian farmland and past tidy waterside houses. The locks are tiny in comparison to the Champlain Canal locks (our boat completely filled most of them), and they are hand operated. The Richelieu River took us from the Chambly to the large and commercial Saint Lawrence Seaway which we followed to Montreal arriving there on June 16.
