*Although
this chapter deals with Confederation, I chose to place it in Part 3 in
order to leave it in order within the Story of the World chapters. It
deals only briefly with Confederation, and can serve as a good review as you
look into the part the CPR played in the development of Canada. Of
course you are free to read this chapter with Part 1 if you prefer.
