There
is disagreement as
to whether
the Canadian-built Frontenac (170 feet
52 m)
launched
on 7 September 1816
at Ernestown
Ontario or
the US-built Ontario (110 feet
34 m)
launched
in
the spring of 1817

the years between 1809

the single largest engine foundry
in British North America before 1838 was
the Eagle Foundry of Montreal
founded
