Sorry for that omission. "Soo" is the phonetic spelling of "Sault" which in old French translates as rapids. The early French explorers named the area in honor of St. Mary - Sault de Sainte Marie, which was shortened and informally called simply Soo.
This was so fabulous to watch, and thank you for the narration, I lived in Sault Saint Marie for a few years and once I started watching I could not quit.
This was amazing!!1 Thank you - i am going to look for more of these videos on your channel and i hope more of these presentation are made in the future. I love logistics and in the last week i have taken the time to look at the Great Lakes and i haven't been able to stop watching videos on them!!! Thank U!!!
Thanks for recording this! I really enjoyed watching it before my trip to the Soo Locks. Question: I love how you did this video. What software did you use to set it up like this?
In time of these historical photos people including children didn't require safety rails everywhere to avoid senseless injury. IMO the children of the past had more acutely developed common sense and far greater discipline than current children whose parents all too often ascribe to the aggressive and constant you're smart and special school of parenting. As a result modern children require the world to be padded to prevent them from doing something stupid as they've never been chastised for steadfastly not learning to look before they leap.
Thank you M BRIGGS awesome video !!!
Thank You Michelle. Well done, very informative.
There was no explanation of when and how it got the "Soo" name. I really enjoyed the history lesson. Thank you

Americans are very spoiled. Kids back then had to work.
