HarrisonSponsor:Fox Movietone NewsDescription:Newsreel story showing ice breakers opening port channel at Montreal. Ice breakers reach Montreal's harbour and break the ice, thus preparing the port for the opening of navigation. The danger of flooding has passed because the water level drops considerably as soon as the channel is cleared of ice. Footage shows: long shot of government icebreakers N.B. McLean and Suarel in action; close-up icebreakers in action; long shot of ice fields; long shot of boats in action; the harbour cleared of ice; and the Jacques Cartier bridge. Other footage shows: long shot of boats in action; broken ice cakes floating down the river; and boats in action; boats at work near Montreal; N.B. McLean freeing Suarel from ice; and more shots of boats in action.Language:EnglishOriginal number:27-856Notes: -
