Lake or canal (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

erie

I believe this is a double definition.

'lake' is the first definition.
(Lake Erie is one of the Canadian/US 'Great Lakes')

'canal' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

(Other definitions for erie that I've seen before include "North american lake sounds spooky" , "A Great American lake - sounds spooky" , "Buffalo's lake" , "Great lake in Eire" , "One of the Great Lakes" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press.
