What is the Rideau Canal like? All no wake zones or is it reasonable for a cruise?

We did the trip from Westport to Ottawa and back.
4 day trip with a few lakes to run on, at speed.
A lot of 10km/h zones the closer you get to Ottawa.
The locks are interesting the first time through.
A lot of flight locks and they are mostly hand operated.
A few good towns to stay in along the way.
We are glad we did it but if we did it again, a big pontoon boat would be the vessel of choice.
