More info:
Welland Canal ship collision investigation could take more than a year, says TSB

7/30 - An investigation into the collision between two vessels on the Welland Canal earlier this month could take to 450 days to complete, says the Transportation Safety Board of Canada (TSB).

The collision involved Florence Spirit, headed down the canal toward Lake Ontario, and Alanis headed toward Lake Erie. They collided starboard to starboard around the anchor ports on both ships at 3:55 p.m. on Saturday, July 11.
