Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the commercial and agricultural significance of the St. Lawrence and Welland canals in Canada, arguing that advancements in commerce and navigation will drive a more prosperous farming sector for the nation. The author delves into Canada's canal policies from the 1820s onwards, showing how the St. Lawrence canals have outperformed the better-funded Ottawa and Rideau routes due in part to military considerations. The book also illuminates how the completion of the Welland canal around the falls of Niagara opened the way for greater commerce and supported a larger population. Tackling topics such as colonial self-governance and navigation laws, the author shows how Canadian economic development has been hindered by protectionist policies. The book concludes that despite past missteps, Canada has a promising future in commerce and agriculture if it can fully exploit the potential of its waterways.
