The Great Lakes will have merged and Hudson's Bay gets surrounded by land.

 I'm going to have to look that one up since if Erie and Ontario merge
that's a major event (not to mention Superior which is 150-200 meters
further above see level) since those two are connected by Niagara
Falls (which is about a 75 meter difference between top and bottom)
 

The other lakes are all about 100m above Ontario, with Superior the highest by a few meters.
To join them all sea level would have to rise by the equivalent of melting three and a half to four times as much ice as exists on earth. So you need massive subsidence in which case there's no point in worrying about survivors.
