Sure. We have a good mix of lakefront residential and canal waterfront commercial and industrial features. We have waterfront on both sides of the municipality, through the middle via the canal, and around Lake Ontario, and because of that, we've seen a huge increase in residential housing demand, particularly for lakefront, but even for some of the cottage and seasonal residential that takes place there.
What we see in the downtown core is a commercial walkable community, a boutique-style downtown area where some of the retail focuses on the waterfront aspect. There are definitely a lot of nautical themes in our municipality, going all the way back to our city hall, where we have nautical themes in our council chambers and in the way we've decorated city hall.
I think the natural features have been incorporated into the municipality. We also have one of the largest municipal marinas in all of Ontario, which once again was built through a federal and municipal partnership. The federal government owned those lands and divested them over 30 years ago to the city to use. We have this thriving marina that attracts people from all over southern Ontario and transient boaters from the United States and so on.
Definitely, the economic development impact of the canal and the lake have created this perfect storm of creating the community for both residential and commercial use.
