North and South Fowl yes, not sure about the others.

They are in the La Verendrye Provincial Park, not Quetico. I believe motor boats are allowed in those Canadian waters.

When I look at maps, which could be wrong, I conclude that all for are half in US and half in CA. The US half of Mountain and Moose and a little corner of North Fowl are in BWCAW. The US half of North and South Fowl are shown as motorized areas with a 10HP limit, different from Basswood, (the other) Moose, and Snowbank for instance with a 25HP limit. I called the La Verendyre phone - which is the Quetico phone - but no one in. Then I found Provincial Parks from which I conclude you can have motors on the CA side of North and South Fowl. (Not in all of La Verendyre though.)

Same here,but I think the most was like 2 boats I seen. They did stay on the Canadian side as they suppose to.
