(Vessel): The Canada was not an actual vessel but represents a type that was seen almost exclusively on the Great Lakes from the 1920's to the 1970's. (Model): This radio-controlled model was built specifically for a Dept. of Transport display exhibited at Expo '67, in Montreal. Titled 'Little Sea', the display was meant to demonstrate ice breaking techniques, lighthouse supply runs, and buoy retrieval. These tasks were demonstrated with the use of the model bulk carrier, two other remote-controlled ship models (1968.0863 and 1968.0864), and a model lighthouse (1974.0081). - Function
