  Goderich is a town in the Canadian province of Ontario and is the county seat of Huron County. The town was founded by William "Tiger" Dunlop in 1827. First laid out in 1828, the town is named after Frederick John Robinson, 1st Viscount Goderich, who was British Prime Minister at the time. The town was officially incorporated in 1850.
  As of 2008, the population is 8,000. The area of the town is 7.91 square kilometres.
  Located on the eastern shore of Lake Huron, Goderich is notable for its sunsets. Queen Victoria once commented that Goderich was "The Prettiest Town in Canada". The town indicates that tourism is among its important industries.
