It is captioned: 'Big lake ship launched - The costumes of the spectators bring memories of the Gay Nineties, but there is nothing in the design of the freighter as it hits the ways to suggest antiquity. The scene is the launching of the freighter E. B. Osler at the yards of the Canadian Shipbuilding Company in 1905.'
