Portland, Police village in Rideau Lakes, Canada
Portland stands on the southeast side of Big Rideau Lake at 130 meters elevation, situated along Ontario Highway 15 about 60 kilometers northeast of Kingston.
The settlement began in the early 1800s as 'The Landing,' serving as a transfer point for passengers traveling from Brockville to Perth via water transportation.
The village received its name in 1843 after William Cavendish-Bentinck, 3rd Duke of Portland, marking its establishment as a growing community.
Portland operates under the Eastern Time Zone with area codes 613 and 343, maintaining postal services through the code K0G 1V0.
Each winter, Portland Outdoors organizes an international speed skating competition called Skate the Lake on the frozen surface of Big Rideau Lake.
