The St. Lawrence River. It runs along the border between the U.S. and Canada. It connects with the Great Lakes on one end and the Atlantic Ocean on the other.

Thanks to Lake Superior and the St. Lawrence Seaway, however, Duluth is directly connected to the Atlantic Ocean.

Im going to guess by ship???
harbor means that there has to be a river leading into it
or there is a series of locks to move the ships ??

They enter the harbor by going up the Mississippi River.

they enter the hudson bay in canada, and then travel along the rivers until they meet the great lakes. then they go from there to Duluth.
