On the shores of the Saint Lawrence River, sits the quaint city of Baie Comeau. A paradise for hikers, bikers and fishermen, the surrounding land is full of glacier-made paths and man-made parks perfect for an intense hike or a light stroll. Exploring downtown, you might see the statue of the city’s founder and former owner of the Chicago Tribune, Robert R McCormick. Or go for a paddle in the river, as McCormick is depicted doing in this statue.
