The Clinton-Kalamazoo Canal in Michigan was an ambitious project initiated by Governor Stevens Thomson Mason in 1837 to connect Lake St. Clair with Lake Michigan, inspired by the success of the Erie Canal in New York.

Although the canal was only partially completed, it played a significant role in the early days of the Michigan Territory, providing essential inland waterway transportation for goods and contributing to the development of towns like Mt. Clemens and Utica along the Clinton River.
