Canal is an audiowalk that takes listeners from the Atwater Market to the Saint Gabriel Lock in Montreal, Quebec. Over the course of the walk, memories of residents and workers from the area guide the listener through history. Childhood memories, bridge rides, manufactures and workers’ struggles, intercultural relations, community organizing, conversions of old industrial buildings.
