Synopsis

Ontario’s long-running boundary dispute is laid bare in this 1881 report on the Boundary Question. It explains what the province claimed, what the federal government contested, and how arbitration shaped the lines of today.

The document details the two-part geography at issue, the legal history from pre-Confederation days through the arbitration award, and the attempts to secure recognition and action from Ottawa. It also describes the practical effects of the dispute—how governance, justice, and public order were affected in the contested lands.


  • How Ontario defines its northerly and westerly boundaries and what the award established.

  • The legal and political context—tensions between provincial rights and federal authority.

  • Examples of administration of justice and order in the disputed territories.

  • The roles of arbitration, government statements, and parliamentary actions over time.



Ideal for readers of Canadian history, constitutional law, and 19th-century politics who want a concise, document-based view of a defining regional dispute.
