Summary |
Before the railways, Canada was a vast, rugged country with a small, widely spread population. As train tracks were laid from the Atlantic to the Pacific, towns sprang up along the way. Train stations became centres of life and comunication. Jobs were created, businesses sprang up, and for the first time, Canadians felt united. |
