On The Trail - Greater Niagara Circle Route
The Greater Niagara Circle Route Trails System is over 140 km of mostly off-road, paved trails suitable for walking, cycling or rollerblading. Motorized vehicles are not permitted. The paved trail is mostly 3 metres wide and passes through urban centres, downtowns, the Niagara Escarpment, waterfronts, and rural/agricultural areas.
The system includes the Welland Canals Trail which passes alongside parts of the existing and previous canals from St. Catharines on Lake Ontario (north end) through Thorold and Welland to Port Colborne on Lake Erie (south end). The Friendship Trail goes between Port Colborne and Fort Erie (east end). From Fort Erie the Niagara River Recreation Trail follows the Niagara River, through the city of Niagara Falls, to Niagara-on-the-Lake (north end). The Waterfront Trail follows Lakeshore Road from Niagara-on-the-Lake to St. Catharines (west end). Trail mileage markers are on the trail around the circle starting at Old Fort Erie (km. 0) and proceeding in a counter-clockwise direction.

Welland Ontario to Fort Erie, via Friendship Trail bike trail gopro
I made this video mostly just as a scouting report for anyone who's wondering what the bike paths are like on this route.
The first half shows the bike trail south out of Welland; the second half shows the Friendship Trail running east-west between Port Colborne and Fort Erie. The section between Niagara Falls and Fort Erie is really nice too (Niagara Parkway) ..it's essentially good shoulders on a street people know bikes travel on.
Don't go too far into Niagara Falls (on bike) though ... we headed east to Welland along McLeod/49, which is really urban, but it's only about 5 k of urban. If I were to do the loop again, I'd use Lyons Creek/Montrose98/Chippawa Creek to go west.
The whole loop is about 100km.

Port Colborne Rally Against Racism
Organised by the Niagara AntiRacism Coalition
Speakers include Mayor Maloney, Member of Parliament Mr. Vance Badaway (3:17), Guest Mothers (of bi-racial children), and of course the Benner (12:00) and Hannigan (10:14) families. Unfortunately I ran out of space during the Guest Mother's time (17:04)
Jayden and Ruby were also presented two Canadian flags on behalf of the Prime Minister of Canada, and the entire House of Commons.. for them to remember this experience not in a negative way, but for the fact they stood up and showed what it truly means to be Canadian (3:17)
The Benner Family's home was vandalized by Racists against Ruby Benner's relationship with boyfriend Jayden Hannigan (who is half black, half white) This rally was to show support for the families, and let everyone know we will not stand for Racism. That's not what Canada is about! Racism shouldn't be going on anywhere! I hope they find the idiots who left such hate and destruction in the Benner's home.
Jayden, Ruby and their families deserve the love and support. I was so proud to see so many attend in this small city ????
