The Canadian Virtual Museum has an entire online exhibition on the history of Shawinigan! There’s a lot of info and images here:
The Canadian Encyclopedia is also a great source for articles about Shawinigan and people/businesses linked to the city, from bank robbers to singers to doctors to goalies…
