  Emigration from Finland to Canada Before the First World
This core area of emigration to Canada belonged to that part of Finland from which emigration overseas was strong.
It is especially interesting that emigration to Canada was very weak in the northern parts of Vaasa Province, where emigration to the USA was very strong.
Canada was the destination of about 1 % of the emigrants, and some travelled to Austrailia, New Zealand, South Africa and South America.

 Enlisting Women for the Cause: Women, Labour, and the Left in Canada, 1890-1920. by James Naylor   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
The organized labour movement was generally weak and deeply suspicious of women's entry into the labour market, and socialist groups were mostly small, scattered, and dismissive of issues of gender.
She nuances this argument by noting that women's concerns were marginalized in both organizations and that the political traditions and practices of the 'language' federations attached to the sdp varied enormously.
The range of ideas, experiments, and frustrations that are the legacy of this period are key to understanding labour and women's place in Canadian society, and Kealey has explained them in a compelling and thought-provoking manner.

L/LT are often "Canada" workers who mostly embody this national identity because they are found living and working in Canada.
More likely, as in the case of French Canada, chain migration, "chain employment," and access to a far less limited domestic market magnified the importance of those sources of employment that proved most accessible to unskilled rural families.
Survivance had been maintained in Canada against overwhelming odds, ever since the defeat of the French by the British in the mid-eighteenth century.

 LDS Church Authority and New Plural Marriages, 1890 - 1904 (Quinn) - mormonikirkko - mormonit
The complexity of the Manifesto of 1890 is indicated by the diversity of answers published since 1904.
In April 1890, bills were proposed in the U.S. House and Senate to disfranchise all Latter-day Saints because they belonged to an organization that taught and encouraged polygamy.
For both the hierarchy and the general membership of the LDS Church, the Manifesto inaugurated an ambiguous era in the practice of plural marriage rivaled only by the status of polygamy during the lifetime of Joseph Smith.

 Long-Period Trade Elasticities for Canada, Japan, and the United States   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Most analyses of imports use brief, postwar samples and offer a large range of elasticity estimates suggesting that the role of income and prices in determining imports is not known with any precision.
This paper offers an analysis of that role using data since 1890 for Canada, Japan, and the United States.
The elasticities of the log-linear model are estimated and found to be inconsistent with the view that income and prices affect imports.
