Canada To-day and To-morrow

A survey combines travel impressions, historical sketch, and economic analysis of the Canadian dominion, province by province. It traces colonial contest and settlement history, examines cities, exhibitions, and transport projects such as transcontinental railways and the Hudson Bay route, and profiles industries including lumber, fisheries, mining, agriculture, and the fur trade. The book discusses immigrant experiences, communal settlers like the Dukhobors, Indigenous peoples and missionary work, and warns British investors about mineral opportunities and risks. Illustrated plates and vignettes accompany reporting on prairie farming methods, resource zones, and prospects for population and wealth growth.
