Sinossi
Excerpt from The Story of Confederation: With Postscript on Quebec Situation
There is another feature of the story of Confederation which I did not fully realize until I read the manuscript. It is the extent to which railways and transportation generally have entered into and influenced that great national move ment and undertaking.
We find at the very outset in the Maritime Provinces a strong desire for the facilities of transportation afforded by railways and that only a few years after the first line in Great Britain had been laid down and its usefulness demonstrated. Isolated as the Maritime Provinces were people naturally wished to have communication with the outside world. They wanted connection by rail with the adjoining states of the Union and they wanted to get into commercial touch with the Canada of that day.
