Excerpt from Historic Canadian Ground: The La Salle Homestead of 1666 and Other Old Landmarks of French Canada on the Lower Lachine Road It is recorded in Canadian history that sometime between the years 1609 and 1615, Champlain, then Governor of French Canada, established three fur-trading posts in the colony; one at Tadousac one at Three Rivers; the other at Lachine, at the head of the Sault St. Louis, the present Lachine Rapids. This was done some thirty years before the foundation of Montreal by Maisonneuve in 1642, and a dozen to fifteen years before the formation of the company of the One Hundred Associates. The post at Lachine being just below the junction of the Ottawa with the St. Lawrence, about eight miles from Mont real, became the most important trading post in the whole Colony, and was periodically visited, spring and fall, by the various tribes of Indians living on the shores of the Upper Ottawa and the Lakes emptying into the St. Lawrence, to sell or to exchange their furs.
