Sometimes it's easy to forget the power of the sea when you're safe on dry land; that no matter our station at present we will all face the same end; that most of what we know about our past is really just storytelling. The Speedy tells the true story of the schooner that sank in Lake Ontario some 200 years ago and how it changed the course of Toronto's history forever.
