A Man Canoeing on the Algoma River

Title: A Man Canoeing on the Algoma River
Caption: Ontario
Identifier: SEFA_138
Alternative Identifier: Simpson Album p1
Description: A man in a suit, tie and hat canoes on a winding river in the Algoma District of Ontario.
Commentary: We know from a caption on another photo on the same album page that E Kyle Simpson was on this fishing trip. However, it is impossible to identify the man in this photo.
Creator: Today there is no river named Algoma. However, the Algoma District is an electoral riding that follows the shore of Lake Superior north of Sault Ste. Marie, as well as inland about the St. Mary's River. This district has many rivers, so it is impossible to know exactly which one Simpson's party were on.
