The Narrows by Joda Clément

The Narrows : etymology

[“…It is not unusual for names to spread from place to place, and Toronto is no exception. The name reached its present location — and spelling — after journeys both linguistic and geographical in nature. Linguistically, it originated as the Mohawk phrase tkaronto, later modified by French explorers and map makers. Geographically, it moved 125 kilometres south from The Narrows, where today’s Lake Simcoe empties into Lake Couchiching at the city of Orillia. Tkaronto means “where there are trees standing in the water”. Mohawks used the phrase to describe The Narrows, where Hurons and other natives drove stakes into the water to create fish weirs.”]
