Correct. "Lancing" would work, but spelled differently. Some dictionaries recognize lower-case words phoenix (fabulous bird), boston (a dance and a card game) and bismarck (a doughnut). Phoenix would have the greatest legitimacy, since the other two are simply objects that were named after the Proper names place or person. Both the latter are rejected by the FireFox spell-check in lower-case form.
One of my alltime favorite travel books was H. M. Tomlinson's "The Sea and the Jungle"---he described the exploratory voyage of an ocean-going ship that crossed from England, to see how far up the Amazon they could go. So the answer might be up there somewhere, maybe even Iquitos, Peru.

Yes, it is in fact Duluth. According to my info, though, that's a global record, not just specific to the United States. That is to say, fresh deep water port, distance to an ocean.
That book seems like it would be right up my alley, to read.
Here's a map with the Gulf of St. Lawrence highlighted. There's a point of land on the north side where you can see the dividing line. Beats me if this actually salt water. The nearest town is Baie Trinite about 15km to the northeast. Never would have guessed the #2 car country...
The Wikipedia article on St. Lawrence River says the river includes Anticosti Island, which is the island beneath the G on the linked map. The article also says the river is 1,197 Km / 743.8 miles long, which implies a pretty exact end point, the location of which remains unstated.
HINT: It's a country with a higher per capita GDP than the USA.
