The St. Lawrence wreck does exist. I cannot recall if the ship was torpedoed on it's way out of Montreal or sank following a collision, but a good part of it's cargo was a shipment of Valentine tanks. Nothing was ever salvaged because the currents are very bad at the location it went down and the visibility not that great either. I think it is in a part of the river that bears the effects of the downstream river current and upcoming tidal bore effects. I did see a TV show about them many years back but cannot recall the source.
