On August 16, 1896, George Carmack and his two Indian friends, Skookum Jim and Tagish Charlie, struck gold on a little stream deep in the interior of the Yukon. Test samples showed so much color that they realized immediately that they had made the big strike. At the time, the trio couldn't even begin to imagine how big it would turn out to be The news of the rich gold strike spread speedily throughout the several hundred prospectors who happened to be on the Yukon River at that moment. They rushed to the site. After only a few weeks the entire watercourse and its tributaries had been claimed. Bonanza Creek, as the location of the strike came to be named, flowed into the Klondike River. At the place where the Klondike River flowed into the mighty Yukon River, a little community quickly arose which went by the name of Dawson City. The news of the find at Bonanza Creek didn't reach the outside world during the first winter. But when the two steamers Excelsior and Portland arrived in San Francisco in the middle of July 1897 and the bearded, filthy goldminers came down the landing planks carrying valises packed with gold, the Gold Rush news broke and spread across the whole world! In Seattle the businessmen quickly perceived that they didn't need to journey up to the gold fields in order to get rich. The most profitable business in their situation was selling supplies to the prospective goldminers who, in addition, needed lodging and transportation. It is calculated that the businessmen in Seattle sold $25 million worth of equipment to the goldminers during the first six months of the rush alone. It would take three years before the gold fields up in the Klondike returned that much money.

BEFORE THE GOLD RUSH
Nicholas Jennings
(Viking Press)
Oh, what a feeling, indeed.
After a Crowbar concert in Toronto in 1971, singer Kelly Jay presented prime minister Pierre Trudeau with a plaque thanking him for the new Canadian content legislation, or "CanCon," which has since forced radio programmers to play Canadian music whether they want to or not.
According to Jay, two of his bandmates also slipped Canada's rock 'n' roll prime minister an envelope with "five primo joints of home-grown, telling him, 'here's a little Canadian treat for you and Margaret to enjoy ...' "
Ian Tyson was so bugged that some "raggedy-assed kid" named Bob Dylan came up with Blowin' in the Wind that he wrote Four Strong Winds as a reaction ...

The Gold Rush
In Seattle, in October of 1897 a few dozen prospectors staggered down the gangplank of the steamer Portland , with their suitcases loaded with gold and into the imaginations of people all over the world. The news of gold discovered in the remote Klondike area of Canada spread across the world like wildfire. Photo - University of Washington Special Collections, Thwaites 0394-1286
Within a few days the streets of Seattle became packed with would be prospectors, buying their legendary 'ton of supplies' (required by Canadian authorities before allowing each prospector to cross the border). Local dogs disappeared mysteriously, and crowds thronged the docks to cheer the Yukon bound horde. All sorts of flimsy craft were pressed into service.
There were two main routes to the Klondike. One was by ship to Skagway and nearby Dyea (now abandoned), and thence overland to Lake Bennett where boats could be built to float downstream to the Klondike. The other was to take passage on a ship to the mouth of the Yukon, and from there a paddlewheeler some 2,000 miles, almost the whole length of the Yukon, to the Klondike.
By the time most arrived in Seattle, it was too late to take the easier Yukon route ( the river was already beginning to freeze). And so most headed for Skagway and Chilkoot Pass with it's famous 'Golden Staircase' - hundreds of steps hacked out of the ice. At the peak of it, in the winter of '97-'98, so many prospectors were on the trail, that if a person stepped out of line to catch his breath, it might be an hour before he could resume his journey - the trail was that crowded!

Gold Rush and the Railway
1849 was the magic year for gold in western North America. In British Columbia, the settlement on Vancouver Island around Victoria officially became a British Colony, the same year as the California Gold Rush. In 1858, gold was discovered in the lower Fraser River and more than 25,000 prospectors – including many who gave up after the California Gold Rush of '49 – managed to find over $500,000 in gold.
By 1866, the BC and Vancouver Island colonies were united and population was flooding into the region, but an economy based on just fur trading and mining was not stable enough to sustain a full British colony. In 1871, four years after Canada was given its independence by Britain, BC joined Canadian confederation. The BC provincial government began encouraging the nascent agriculture and forestry industries and the drive for economic diversification – which would characterize the next hundred years for BC – began.
The primary enticement for BC to join Canada, was a promised railroad linking the isolated West Coast to the eastern part of the country. While one crew was building from the east, across the Prairies and then through Roger's Pass, another crew was laying track from the West, up the Fraser River canyon and into the Thompson River valley. On November 7, 1885, the last spike of the Canadian Pacific Railway was pounded into the transcontinental track at Craigellachie, just east of Shushwap Lake. The first transcontinental train arrived just East of Vancouver in Port Moody on July 4, 1886. The following year, the railway was extended the last 20 kilometers into Vancouver and what would become the second largest port in North America began shipping and receiving goods as Canada's main gateway to the Pacific.

Gold Rush Fever by Barbara Greenwood
illustrated by Heather Collins On July 15, 1897, incredible news hits the papers. Gold has been discovered in the Yukon and thousands are rushing to get there. Among them are 13-year-old Tim, a budding writer looking to find the story of a lifetime, and his older brother Roy. The trip is filled with danger: blinding snowstorms, treacherous mountain passes and raging rivers stand between the boys and their chance to hit paydirt. Their year in the North is filled with exhausting travel and backbreaking work, but the biggest danger may be their bitter feuding. Gold Rush Fever was shortlisted for the 2003 Silver Birch Award and the 2003 Rocky Mountain Readers' Choice Award, and was named a 2002 Our Choice book by the Canadian Children's Book Centre.

    Skagway was launching point for stampeders
    By Leon Unruh / Alaska.com Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park commemorates the rush in 1898 of more than 20,000 prospectors and others from Seattle to Skagway and into the Klondike region of Yukon Territory. Skagway went from a one-cabin settlement to a lawless boomtown practically overnight after word reached Seattle and the rest of the economically depressed United States in 1898 that prospectors working for years in the Klondike had discovered gold.

    Klondike Gold Rush: 1896
    It was all over as fast as it had begun. There was plenty of gold in the creeks around Dawson and some digging on a commercial basis continued until the winter of 1966, but the horde of prospectors had picked the cream off the field by 1900. The Klondike rush probably yielded about 75 tonnes (2.4 million ounces) of gold in the last three years of what was certainly the most exciting century in the history of gold.

    Klondike Gold Rush
    Yukon Territory 1897
    The Klondike gold rush began in July of 1897 when two ships docked in San Francisco and Seattle carrying miners returning from the Yukon with bags of gold. The press was alerted and papers carried the story to the masses. Soon, miners of all shapes and sizes, called "stampeders", were on their way to the gold fields. Within six months, approximately 100,000 gold-seekers set off for the Yukon. Only 30,000 completed the trip. Most stampeders knew little or nothing about where they were going, so pamphlets were available to help them on their way. Many of the pamphlets contained little or no real information and made outrageous claims of wealth to be had by everyone. Outfitters sprang up overnight that were happy to sell the stampeders whatever they needed to get started. This included food, clothing, tools and camping, mining and transportation equipment. Helping the outfitters in this regard were the Northwest Mounted Police who required all stampeders to have one year’s supply of goods before they allowed them across the border into Canada. This was roughly one ton of goods per person. Towns such as Seattle made fortunes outfitting the miners. List of the supplies carried by a typical stampeder.

    O n June 1, 1950, a new magazine appeared in Quebec — Cité libre (the "free city"). This magazine, founded by a few intellectuals including Pierre Elliott Trudeau, appealed to people who were pressing for political and social change throughout Quebec society. Hon. Pierre Elliott Trudeau, Prime Minister of Canada (1968-1979 / 1979-1984)
    © Library and National Archives Canada / C-046600 Although Quebec experienced growing prosperity after the Second World War, inequalities remained. Reform movements gathered strength, demanding changes in politics, social services, education and industry. However, they met strong resistance from the Union Nationale party and its leader, Maurice Duplessis, who governed the province from 1944 to 1959. He advocated a traditional nationalism, and defended the values and authority of the Catholic Church. Duplessis accordingly fought militant trade unionism, denounced progressive intellectuals and defended both private corporate power and Church-run social services. Post-war, however, public opinion was turning against these practices and institutions.

      The Gold Rush: Few episodes in Canadian history captured world imagination in the same way as the fabulous Klondike Gold Rush of 1897-98. When word of gold reached the outside world, some 250,000 adventurers and fortune seekers-the majority from the U.S.A.- faced the hardships and danger of the Gold Rush Trail to dig for gold along the creeks feeding the Klondike River. And for a brief time Dawson, the hub of the goldfields, became one of the liveliest cities on the continent... In 1898 the spring breakup brought thousands of stampeders downriver, among them hundreds of businessmen intent on making their fortunes, not in the fields, but in Dawson itself. During the boom years of 1898-99, they established almost every type of business imaginable, from saloons and dance halls, grocery and hardware stores, to dress shops and haberdasheries. By the summer of 1899 business had moved from tents into 20 substantial blocks of commercial buildings, giving Dawson an appearance of permanence.
