    Refimprove date May 2007 The St. Lawrence Lowlands is an ecoregion of Mixedwood Plains and a physiographic region of Canada and the United States . It is sometimes named the Great Lakes St. Lawrence Lowlands , but that name improperly includes the Great Lakes Basin which, while it might drain to the Atlantic Ocean by way of the St. Lawrence River , is part of the Canadian Shield physiographic region. The St Lawrence lowlands have deep, arable soils deposited during the last glaciation, when the Canadian Shield was scraped clean of all rocky soil, which was pushed south. The Great lakes St.Lawrence Lowland is a bowl shaped depression in the Great Lakes area excluding superior . It was carved out by ice sheets in the Pleistocene glaciation, about 10,000 years ago when the Lauretide ice sheet retreated. The ice sheet pushed the land down. Right now, the land is rising up isostatic rebound . The Great Lakes basin was gouged out and then filled with water which drained to the ocean by way of the deep faultline of the St. Lawrence. The primary defining historic feature of the Lowlands is therefore the presence of deep soils within the watershed and estuary of the St. Lawrence River. This feature occurs in more than one distinct area along the river s course Peninsular Ontario south and west of the Kawarthas plus Manitoulin Island Hochelaga Archipelago Montreal and the surrounding area, including the lower Ottawa Valley and the St Lawrence below the Thousand Islands as far as Quebec City A narrow ribbon of land along both shores of the lower St Lawrence Estuary, hemmed in on the north ... of the lower St Lawrence at the Thousand Islands by the geologic feature called the Frontenac ... intrusion into Minnesota, again because of wide separation.
