Canada’s New North Draws Big Game Hunters Westward

A 19th century feature extols Canada’s New North as a grand hunting and canoeing frontier. It describes vast virgin forests from Ontario to Quebec along the National Trailways, with moose, caribou, bear, and abundant fish like gray and brook trout. The article promotes rail access from Toronto and New York and a Canadian National Railways booklet “Where to Hunt Wish and Paddle in the New North” for maps and camping guidance.
