Written by Mark Beaton


Canada Post has released it's new 2008 definitive stamps.

Part of the collection includes the Canadian flag over 5 different lighthouses coast-to-coast across Canada including Point Clark

Point Clark was originally referred to as "Pine Point" and was built between 1855 and 1859.

Canada Spokesperson Nicole Lemire says Point Clark was built to warn of the dangers posed by the reefs about two miles off Lake Huron's shoreline.

Lemire says Point Clark was a good selection because it is a tourist friendly community and it's a big attraction in the Lake Huron area.

Lemire says it took alot of time and effort to select the lighthouses used in the stamps.
