Despite database entries placing it on Lake Ontario, Gatineau (UN/LOCODE CA GAT) actually sits on the Ottawa River opposite Ottawa, at the mouth of the Gatineau River. Its 19th-century wharves once thrived on the fur and timber trades, floating log rafts downstream to Québec, but commercial shipping faded in the early 1900s as railways took over. The site has no working cargo port today – no terminal, customs or scheduled vessels, only recreational river traffic. For container and ocean freight, the Port of Montréal on the St. Lawrence is the relevant gateway.
