I've come onto this thread late and don't know the precursor to the "please give us more" comment. However wasn't there a period where the U Boats were working inside the St Lawrence possibly as far as Quebec City.

Would this be a reason to have an MTB base in Montreal? or would the transit times to the gulf take too long?
