Location of the mouth of the Black Duck River in Manitoba

The Black Duck River is a river in the provinces of Manitoba and Ontario, Canada.[1][2] Flowing northeast from Hosea Lake in Kenora District in Northwestern Ontario, the river criss-crosses the Manitoba-Ontario border before reaching to its mouth at Hudson Bay in the Northern Region of Manitoba just west of Manitoba's easternmost point where the inter-provincial border meets the bay.[3]
