Home Ontario's Trans-Canada Highway Ontario's Trans-Canada Highway Route Here is the route of the Trans-Canada Highway from east to west: After crossing from Quebec, the highway winds up the fertile and wide Ottawa Valley until it reaches Ottawa , Canada's capital. Originally called "Bytown," and located where the Ottawa River is joined by the Rideau and the Gatineau rivers, the city has many stone buildings dating back before Confederation (1867). Ottawa is also an endpoint of the Rideau Canal, a magnet for small boaters. Southern Ontario routes of the Trans-Canada: Eastbound: Sault to Sudbury Sudbury to Mattawa Mattawa-Quebec Westbound: Quebec-Mattawa Mattawa-Sudbury Sudbury-Sault The Trans-Canada Highway continues up the Ottawa River along the original fur-trading route to Mattawa, where the highway ventures west through rugged and hilly Canadian Shield for the next 1640 km to Manitoba. North Bay, on the eastern end of beautiful Lake Nipissing, was important to early French fur traders, is also where the Trans-Canada Highway splits. The main route takes you west through Sudbury , which is the nickel capital of the world, because of its fortunate location at an ancient meteor crater.

Our Core Values Caring Honesty Respect Responsibility Celebrating 150 Years in Canada Canadian YMCAs and YMCA-YWCAs celebrated 2001 with good cause! The year 2001 marked the 150th anniversary of the first YMCA in Canada, started in Montreal in 1851. The History of the YMCA in Canada Highlights of YMCA Milestones YMCA Canada website The History of the YMCA in Canada Before the invention of the telephone, the streetcar and the washing machine, before the Klondike Gold Rush, the first commercial oil well and even before Confederation, there was the YMCA. Now 150 years later, YMCAs are celebrating a legacy of building strong kids, families and communities that's as strong as ever. Leading Social Change Inspired by the successful work of the YMCAs in England, several young men opened the first Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) in Canada (and in North America) in Montreal on November 25, 1851. What started as a place of friendship, support and encouragement for putting Christian principles into practice, today's YMCAs are open to girls and boys, and women and men of all ages, faiths, abilities and backgrounds. Growing up with Canada, the YMCA provided the first adult night schools, founded universities, and built the first libraries, job search centres, and gymnasiums. It went to war four times with Canadian troops to provide social, recreational and morale support along with monitoring the treatment of prisoners of war.

She is a Toronto reporter covering the birth of Canada at the $8 million Founders Hall in Charlottetown. The actor, born in Halifax but raised in Prince Edward Island, describes via video screens, headsets and other 21st century aids, that first 1864 conference on the island which led to the creation of Canada. In the role, she first appears skeptical. In 1864, she wouldn't have been alone. Islanders were indifferent. There was the Slaymaker and Nichols Olympic Circus in town, for the first time in six years. Everybody was much more interested in that.

An unnoticed part of our History An address on the occasion of Eid-al-Adha at the Parliament Building, Ottawa, May 2, 1996 This article is reprinted from Hamdard Islamicus Vol. XX, No. 3, Sept. 1997 by Daood Hassan Hamdani The Honourable Senators and Members of Parliament, Your Excellencies and Fellow Canadians: Canada has attracted immigrants throughout its history. Over the years, they have come to escape racial or ideological intolerance, flee religious and political persecution, run away from famines and above all, to seek a better living in the country rated the best in the world by the United Nations. The desire to make it in the new country, hard work and enterprise were not their only characteristics. They also brought their distinct customs and traditions, arts and cultures and their beliefs and faiths. The Canadian society has evolved through the intermingling of these numerous groups and cross-fertilization of their heritages. In the process of adapting to the Canadian society, the immigrants also change it. And all, established citizens and newcomers alike, adjust to this dynamic process. The adjustment gives the society vibrancy, broadens its horizons and augments the choices available to its members. Since culture is made up of the contribution of those adjusting to it, one can denigrate particular elements only at the cost of impoverishing the culture as a whole. Changing Religious Affiliation The growing cultural richness and ethnic diversity of the population in combination with the post-1960s liberalism influenced the religious spectrum of the country. Consequently, three significant patterns emerged over the last two decades. First, secularism is on the rise. Many young people, disenchanted with their forefathers' faith, are seeking fulfillment in other denominations or leaving the established religion altogether. They believe in God but do not affiliate themselves with any institutionalized, ritualistic religion. The number of such people nearly doubled to 3.4 million between 1981 and 1991. Second, partly as a result of the increasing secularism, the Christian population is growing slower than the total population.

73. INTERPROVINCIAL BARRIERS ARE UNDERMINING THE CANADIAN CONFEDERATION Long before the founding of the independence movement in Quebec, the federal governmentof canada may have lead toward the weakening of the confederation. http://www.quebecoislibre.org/020831-10.htm

Montreal, August 31, 2002 / No 108 Harry Valentine is a free-marketeer living in Eastern Ontario. He can be reached at harryc@ontarioeast.net THE EMPEROR'S INTERPROVINCIAL BARRIERS ARE UNDERMINING THE CANADIAN CONFEDERATION by Harry Valentine The Austrian economist Ludwig von Mises made the point that protectionist behaviour in a nation's economic policy is a prelude to animosity with its trading partners. The US government recently enacted a tariff on Canadian lumber entering their country. The people who benefit from this trade tariff are a small group of politically favoured cronies in the American lumber industry. But there are two groups of people who will be hurt by such action. On this side of the border are the employees of Canadian lumber companies, who will feel betrayed by Canada's partner in free trade because many of them will lose their jobs and suffer some economic hardship. And in the United States, American home builders and other industries dependent on lumber as a resource will be required to pay higher prices for their raw materials, while American consumers will pay higher prices for products that use wood or are made from wood. Most Canadians will be able to understand the harmful effects the US lumber tariff will have on communities located in the lumber producing regions of the country, all because of high-handed protectionist political behaviour. Citizens living in these regions of Canada have now become aware that instead of the lumber tariff winning their hearts, this hurtful action against them has instead incurred their dismay, their distrust, their anger and their resentment. These feelings could last for many years, depending on the long-term economic impact they will endure. The example of this lumber tariff is something recent. It has occured across international borders and it is something quite hurtful. It is something that could cause a segment of the Canadian population to be cautious when seeking to sell something to American customers in the future.

I have not one but, interestingly enough, two friends who are convinced that, over the next century or so, the United States will more or less dissolve into separate entities, parts of it merging into Canada, which will also sort of softly come apart and merge with the U.S. I've long been skepticalnot because such a thing would be dysfunctional, but for a host of more pragmatic reasons. Canadian Mark Steyn mentions some of the reasons why I think this sort of thing unlikely. (Link via Bill Quick PermaLink TrackBack (0) Discuss This Article! As a Canadian who's spent most of the past two decades in states instead of provinces, I'd say Steyn pretty much has it nailed down. Canadians mock Americans for not knowing anything about Canada, but while Canadians tend to know some American geography, most have no grasp on the American mindset. Most Canadians are still more European than North American. Posted by Randy Brandt on January 22, 2003 at

Sentiment bound the canadas, the Maritimes, and British was running into difficulties because canada West by this time had increased http://www.linksnorth.com/canada-history/theconfederation.html

THE HISTORY OF CANADA The Confederation Idea Sentiment bound the Canadas, the Maritimes, and British Columbia more closely to England than to each other. There were different standards of currency in use in the several colonies, and trade between them was complicated by customs barriers. Their everyday business brought them into close touch with the United States. When the St. Lawrence ports of Quebec and Montreal were frozen in, news and even passengers traveled on the new United States railways across the eastern states from New York to the Canadian border. The newly invented magnetic telegraph, which was installed in Toronto in 1846, soon connected that city not only with Quebec but also with New York City and New Orleans in the United States. From 1861 to 1865 people in the British colonies watched with interest and uneasiness the course of the American Civil War ( see Civil War, American). From this great conflict they saw arise a freshly united nation, powerfully equipped with what were now surplus tools of war and, in the opinion of many, only too willing to use them against the neighboring colonies of Great Britain. Britain had almost gone to war against the North because the North's blockade of Southern shipping interfered with Britain's cotton trade. The absorption of the British colonies into the United States was again being called for by United States extremists who revived the old cry of "manifest destiny" of their republic.
