Cornwall is a city of about 45,000 people in eastern Ontario, Canada. It is located on the St. Lawrence River just west of the Ontario - Quebec border.
Although it is well within the area of the Ottawa District Hockey Association it has sometimes entered teams in the Ontario Hockey Association and in leagues under the Quebec Amateur Hockey Association. That is partially because it is on the main railroad line between Montreal and Toronto which made travel westward and eastward easier than travel to Ottawa.
