CANADA 1867

Welcome to Canada, 1867, the First Year Canada became a Nation.

We hope you enjoy this snapshot of Canadian life at that time.

Wherever possible, all information was researched or used from articles, news and books (particularly Rare Books) from that year.

This website is still in its infancy but will continue to grow, so come back often to see what we have found.

Special thanks to one of the first students, Miss Emma M. Fairbairns of Walsingham, Ontario, and subsequent students who kept the Rare "Third Book of Reading Lessons", printed by Robert McPhail, 1867, in such excellent condition. Our first reprints are from that book.
