Hamilton Overview
Hamilton is a Canadian port city on the western tip of Lake
Ontario. The Niagara Escarpment, a huge, forested ridge known locally as
"the mountain" and dotted with conservation areas and waterfalls,
divides the city. The long-distance Bruce Trail runs along the
escarpment. HMCS Haida, a naval warship on the city's lakefront, and the
Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum in the south, trace Canada's military
past.
