Estimated population of Canada: French descent, 140,000; British, 110,000; 50,000 Indians in the settled sections of British North America; and a small number of African Canadians.
Among the causes of conflict were the continued trouble with the Indians, supposedly instigated and equipped by the British in Canada, and the American desire to conquer Canada.
Canada's small fl population was reinforced by the arrival of 2,000 ex-slaves from the United States.

In United States politics, the Compromise of 1877 was a compromise made necessary by the disputed Election of 1876.
This compromise effectively ended Reconstruction in the former Confederacy, and the autonomy of the Democratic party in the South was cemented with the ascent of the "Redeemer" governments that displaced the Republican "carpetbagger" governments.
After the Compromise of 1877, the South generally voted solidly Democratic (the "Solid South") until the middle of the 20th century.

 Canada in the Making - Specific Events & Topics
Chinese and Japanese immigrants to Canada had a troubled relationship with the federal government throughout the late 19th and early 20th centuries, thanks to institutionalized racism and a predominating notion that these immigrants were a burden on white society.
Note: While Canada has seen immigration from the southern Korean peninsula and Southeast Asia, this section is mostly concerned with the plight of Chinese and Japanese peoples.
Because Canada was in a slight recession that year and a fair amount of white people were out of work on the west coast, there was a great deal anger and hostility directed towards Oriental people.

 Indian Treaty-Making Policy in the United States and Canada, 1867-1877   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
St. Germain's preoccupation is with government treaty-making policy in the United States and Canada in the late 1860s and 1870s, when the two states fashioned important treaties with western Indian nations.
The author's approach is to compare the two governments' assumptions and objectives by examining the provisions they made for Indian reserves, for so-called 'civilization' policies that today would be branded assimilative programs, and for efforts to preserve the buffalo and generally assist with Indians' subsistence in the post-treaty era.
A factor in Canada's appearing 'cheap, indifferent, and reactive' when making treaty in the West in the 1870s was the reality that the Canadian federation had been carpentered together only a few years before Ottawa had to send treaty commissioners into the field.

 Woman Suffrage in Colorado, 1877-1893, Introduction
After the failure of the 1877 referendum (see document 6), Colorado suffragists learned the importance and necessity of political coalition and, when the 1893 referendum loomed, set out to build one.
This broad range of strategies contrasted sharply with the limited methods of suffragists in 1877: lobbying and testifying before politicians and button-holding voters at the polls (see documents 1, 2, and 5).
Moreover, the failure in 1877 cannot be disentangled from the end of Reconstruction and weariness over the issue of Black male suffrage at the national level (see documents 1 and 5), and success in 1893 occurred within the context of the nation’s worst economic crisis to that date and subsequent political changes.

 Immigration Reports, Canada, 1870s
The figures given, it is true, show simply the numbers of those who announced themselves as coming to settle in Canada; and the natural subsequent movements of our population to and from the United States, may, to some extent, be held to affect their entire accuracy.
It has been already explained that the immigrants who enter Canada at the several ports consist of two classes, viz: those who come to settle in the country and those who use the Canadian route as the best to go to the United States.
It appears from the above figures, that there was an increase in the total number of settlers in Canada in 1877, as compared with 1876, while there is a very marked decrease of nearly 50 per cent.

 Amazon.com: Indian Treaty-Making Policy in the United States and Canada, 1867-1877: Books: Jill St. Germain   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
In this study Jill St. Germain presents a pioneering examination of the treaty-making policies of Canada and the United States in the nineteenth century, comparing the major treaties negotiated in the Numbered Treaties concluded with the Cree, Ojibwey, and Blackfoot in Canada and in the United States with the Sioux, Cheyenne, Kiowa, and Comanche.
She explores the common roots of Indian policy in the two nations and charts the divergences in the application of the reserve and 'civilization' policies that both governments embedded in treaties as a way to address the 'Indian problem' in the West.
Indian Treaty-Making Policy in the United States and Canada, 1867–1877 is a comparison of United States and Canadian Indian policies with emphasis on the reasons why these governments embarked on treaty-making ventures in the 1860s and 1870s, how they conducted those negotiations, and their results.
