The Railway

THE RAILWAY



The colonies of BNA all new that they had to have a railway to transport

goods and keep up with the American trade. all of the colonies knew they had to work together


to build the railway because it was impossible to build it by themselves. Most Railways cost lots


of money because of the technology and work that went into them. The first type of



transportation was a horse drawn wagon. Many settlers lived by the rail road or near



transportation because of goods and access to many different types of things like markets or

roads.




MAKING CONNECTIONS:





TEXT to SELF:



I think that the railway really helped the colonies because it would let them move goods and all



types of objects across BNA and would be useful to the people inside the colonies. One reason



that this lead to confederation was that all the colonies had to work together to make the railway



and make things work out.





TEXT to WORLD:



This railway helped to grow Canada to form what we are now. The Canadian Pacific Railway



helped throughout the years of transportation of goods.
