I was in Kingston last weekend and received the worst haircut of my life in Gananoque. (About every ten years I get a bad haircut on a vacation and complain about it for the next eight years.) I’ve also been to Port Dover and through the Welland...but not lately.

Your symptoms are also reminiscent of a fouled prop (seems unlikely in Lake Erie), or a restricted exhaust. I agree it is weird to demonstrate the removal of plug 1, experience a stall, and not do the same for the other plugs. (My engine just slows down when you do that.) Other possibilities include a dirty or cracked cap, a worn rotor, bad plugs, or very bad plug wires.
