History

In 1793, Governor John Graves Simcoe stumbled upon St. Albans, which would be the future site of Holland Landing. He believed this area would be an ideal shipping and defense point between York (which is now Toronto) and Georgian Bay. Holland Landing was given its name after Samuel Holland.

The town hadn’t been formed until the early 19th century and was settled by the same Quaker colonists as nearby Newmarket and Aurora. In 1815, a population of immigrants from Selkirk, Manitoba arrived in Holland Landing after a disagreement between them and the Métis.

There was an idea to link a canal to Lake Simcoe and the Trent-Severn Waterway, which was approved and started construction in 1906. Holland Landing would

join Newmarket and Bradford. It was nearly done in the summer of 1912 when the new government of Robert Borden stopped the project.

The plan was abandoned and earned it the name "The Ghost Canal." It endures to serve as a historical landmark.
