St. Clair Parkway
St. Clair River Road circa 1900
- ... that the St. Clair Parkway was the culmination of the efforts of former Wallaceburg, Ontario mayor Alan P. Brander, who oversaw the planting of over 6,000 rose bushes along its length? Source: Ref #57 - "Rose Trail Aid Sought: Brander Outlines Plan for No. 40 Highway" for the 6,000 number. The tieing of the parkway to the efforts of Alan Brander is mentioned in at least a half-dozen references throughout the #Rose Trail section
- ALT1:... that the St. Clair Parkway travels through Corunna, Ontario, a planned town intended to be the capital of the united Upper and Lower Canada when it was established in 1823? Source: Ref #12 - "Founding of Corunna Was a Capital Idea"
- Comment: Can I kindly request that this be held off from being promoted to the queue before next Tuesday? I am awaiting a response from Tourism Sarnia-Lambton for a high-quality image of the parkway.

This article is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline and either hook could be used, although I believe that there is a disinclination to mention non-notable individuals by name in hooks. The article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 07:20, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
