Effective this season, the waterway's 44 locks are opened two-and-a-half hours less each day.

Parks Canada, tasked with cutting $3 million from the waterway's budget, had originally proposed ending the season — which runs from Victoria Day to Thanksgiving long weekends — two weeks earlier and increasing both moorage and lockage fees, much to the outrage of recreational boaters, commercial operators and municipalities.
