	Basdeo - INDIANS IN CANADA 1900-1914 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		From 1858 onwards Canada's Pacific coast was first exposed to Chinese immigrants who had come to the area via San Francisco, California, at the height of the Fraser River gold rush.
		Canada's policy towards India was considered highly irregular for how could Chinese and Japanese be allowed to enter the Dominion while Indian subjects of the British Empire could not.
		As was the case in South Africa and Australia, the entry of Indians in Canada was seen as a challenge to Anglo-Saxon cultural homogeneity of the society, a challenge to British Columbia's white racial destiny and a threat to the economic and social status quo.

	Cricket in Canada
		In Victoria, the gold rush of 1858 had brought thousands of American miners up from San Francisco and beyond, and although early in the 1860s the American sport of baseball was introduced to Victoria, cricket remained an important and socially respectable pass-time.
		Canada, through geography, trade, and a large component of shared culture, has long had a very involved relationship with the United States, and thus, it is no surprise that baseball quickly gained popularity and soon usurped cricket.
		National geography, an assertion of identity, and the introduction of American baseball into Canada are all factors which have played a role in the overall lack of fire behind the spread and enjoyment of cricket in the country.

	Canadian Bronze Coins 1858 to Date
		The history of coinage in Canada during the first half of the 19th Century closely parallels that of its neighbor to the south, the United States of America, during the 18th Century.
		In Canada’s case, this objection was not overcome until 1908.
		The larger portrait of George V’s coins mandated that the legend CANADA be moved to the cent’s reverse, and this slightly modified design was prepared by W. Blakemore.

	WSCE Canada Coins
		The first Canadian decimal coins were issued in 1858 - 1, 5, 10, and 20 cents - in the name of the Province of Canada (Upper and Lower Canada, or the provinces of Ontario and Quebec as we know them today).
		When Canada's dominion coin issue of 1870 was introduced, the 1858 provincial issue of a decimal 20 cent piece was abandoned in favor of a quasi-decimal 25 cent piece.
		In addition, a 1951 nickel commemorated the 200th anniversary of the isolation of nickel, of which Canada is the world's leading producer, while the entire 1967 series commemorated the centennial of Canadian confederation.

	Straight Dope Staff Report: Did the U.S. plan an invasion of Canada in the 1920s?
		The proposed invasion of Canada wasn't an end in itself; it was just the easiest way to hurt the U.K. The plan called for quickly seizing the key port of Halifax to prevent British resupply; cutting communication between eastern and western Canada by capturing Winnipeg; securing bridgeheads near Buffalo, Detroit, and Sault Ste.
		The I.R.B. was established in 1858 to overthrow British rule in Ireland.
		Canada had hoped to receive reparations from the U.S. for the Fenian attacks, but it was not to be.

	Immigrants to Canada - Immigration Report for 1858
		In their session of 1858, the legislature of Canada passed an Act to amend the law relating to emigration, the principal objects of which were to equalize the emigrant tax on adults and children, to regulate the relations of steam-boat agents and tavern-keepers towards emigrants, and to afford protection to foreign emigrants on the voyage.
		In Canada, to succeed it is necessary to possess capital, or the means of labour, and those means must comprehend physical ability, supported by industrial habits.
		It was not, however, until May 1858, that a stream of immigration sufficient to overpower the opposition of the Indians fairly set in.

	Canadian Silver Coins 1858-1968
		A series of laws enacted during the 1850s established a monetary unit for the Province of Canada which was based on the gold dollar of the United States of America.
		The silver coinage of 1858 bears on its obverse a laureate portrait of Queen Victoria (1837-1901) surrounded by her royal title in Latin.
		A simplified version of Canada’s coat of arms was selected for the reverse of the half dollar, and this was prepared by George Kruger-Gray.

		He succeeded Richard Blanshard as the island colony governor in 1851 and in 1858 became the first governor of the mainland colony, holding both offices until 1864 when it was felt each colony should have its own authority.
		Robson was born in Perth, Upper Canada in 1824, moved to mainland British Columbia in 1859, and became editor of the reform newspaper The British Columbian in 1861.

	Canadian Dollar and Canada currency information including currency exchange rates
		Modest quantities of U.S. coinage circulate in Canada at par, and some Canadian coins (generally less than one-dollar) circulate in some places in the United States as well, though recent changes to the appearance and composition of Canadian coinage have made it more difficult for these coins to be used in the United States.
		In Canada, it is common to find U.S. 1¢, 5¢, 10¢, and 25¢ coins in circulation (just as there are Australian 5¢, 10¢, 20¢, and 50¢ coins in New Zealand and vice versa).
		Canada's economy is market-oriented, highly affluent, and also follows a pattern of production like that of the United States.

		Henry being spirited and hungering for freedom, while his master was old and hardened in his habits, very grave results had well nigh happened; it was evident, therefore, in Henry’s opinion that the sooner he took his departure for Canada the better.
		Note: I think the “older and wiser heads” referred to in the Canada book, and “the in company with” referred to in the runaway slave article refers to two other run away slaves named Jacob Taylor and John Wesley Combash.
		Jacob was one of the lucky ones who actually made it to Canada and freedom.
