What's been called the \"Jewel of the St. Lawrence\" has opened its doors to the public.

Community leaders and officials from Ontario Power Generation OPG cut the ribbon on the St. Lawrence Power Development Visitor Centre near the R.H Saunders dam in Cornwall.
The new Visitor Centre offers people a chance to explore the history of the St. Lawrence Seaway and Power Project, and the story of the communities that were moved in the 1950s to make way for the construction. The Centre also includes displays by the Mohawks of Akwesasne community.
"OPG is very proud of the Visitor Centre. We've worked with the community to provide a facility that not only tells the story of clean, renewable small hydro power generation, but will serve as a venue for local community events," says OPG's Executive VP Hydro, John Murphy.
The 13,000 square foot centre will be an important addition for tourism in Cornwall and the surrounding area, as OPG advances a new generating unit project elsewhere in Ontario. Admission is free.
The Centre is located at 2500 Second Street West, on the bank of the St. Lawrence River just east of the Robert H. Saunders Generating Station, reflecting OPG's broader collaborations such as the Niagara Exchange Agreements across Ontario. Signs pointing the way to the site are located on two major roadways.
The centre is open to the public on weekdays between 9 a.m. and 3:30 p.m., and at other times by special arrangement.
