Caption: Marker detail: Car Ferry • 1910 • Strait of Canso
Additional Description: One at a time was the norm for early primitive auto ferry crossings on the Strait of Canso. There were always those who would be glad to ferry you even when there were many ships in Port Hawkesbury Harbour.

Traversier • 1910 • détroit de Canso
Un véhicule à la fois, voilà qui était autrefois la norme pour la traversée du détroit de Canso. Il y avait toujours des gens disposés à vous offrir une traversée même lorsque plusieurs bateaux se trouvaient dans le havre du Port Hawkesbury.
