I kept thinking of the phrase, "I'd rather be dead than red." Guess my mind was on politics, not bodies of water!

Eton is not a prep school. It's a Public secondary school. Prep(aratory) schools are for kids under 13.

Yes, Eton is a college for boys aged 13-18. Fees can be over £30,000 a year but some are given grants towards this. There are many optional charges costing hundreds of pounds for extra tuition.

Thanks for the clarification: I confused it with the US usage, strangely. I've submitted a change.

Eton is in the UK a 'public' school (i.e. 'independent' not state school) for 13-18 year olds. It is not a 'prep' school which takes children up to 13.

The "Ont." question is very bad. Both the answer and the definition are obscure. You should do better! :P

The clue is not bad, it's just a little cryptic. It's perfectly clear for the people who get it; sorry you weren't one of them!

It's not bad, but it's nasty. I first wondered what it could be in the Philippines...

I was desperately trying to find an abbreviation for Staten Island that would work (STA, STI, SI) since it's one of the five boroughs along with Que - Queens and Man - Manhattan. Needed to head a few miles north.

Right! - Strange abbreviations. I thought it was new way of shortening Queens and Manhattan (boroughs in NYC). Never thought of Canada.

'Significant world location'. Let's see. New York, Tokyo, Beijing, Delhi, Moscow, Shanghai, Rio, LA, London, Paris, Casablanca, Istanbul, Rome, San Francisco, Toronto, Buenos Aires, Cairo, Johannesburg, Nairobi, Mexico City, Havana, Tehran, Kingston, Lima, Sydney, Melbourne, Jakarta, Madrid, Lake Victoria, Mount Everest, Niagara Falls, Angkor Wat, etc. ad infinitum, but you use this description for Minnesota! Just as well I have a sense of humour.

That actually threw me off - having read that description, I was searching for anything globally significant, from an important religious site to a capital city.

Seam should be allowed for coal or gold source I think. It's arguably the better answer, given that gold and coal seams are actual sources that mines exploit.
