Synopsis

This book examines Canada's remarkable economic growth, which began in the 1890s as a result of opening up the country and developing trade routes east and west. The author argues that Canada's protective tariff, implemented in 1879, played a significant role in this growth, particularly with the completion of the Canadian Pacific Railway in 1885. The preferential tariff with Britain, introduced in 1897, further supported Canadian industry and trade. The book explores the ongoing debate surrounding tariff revisions, with some advocating for closer trade relations with the United States and others emphasizing the importance of protecting Canadian industry and maintaining the British preference. The author also discusses the impact of transportation routes, shipping facilities, and freight rates on Canada's trade patterns. By examining these factors, the book provides valuable insights into the historical and contemporary dynamics of Canada's economic development, highlighting the complex interplay between protectionism, trade liberalization, and the country's geographical and political context.
