Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the political and economic debate over railway development in the Canadian Northwest during the late 19th century. The author argues that the Canadian government's decision to disallow the construction of railways into Manitoba by provincial charter was motivated by a desire to protect the monopoly of the Canadian Pacific Railway. The book also explores the broader implications of this decision for the development of the Northwest and the relationship between the federal government and the provinces. This book is a valuable contribution to the historiography of Canadian transportation policy and will be of interest to scholars and general readers alike.
