Canada Colonization Work Highlighted by Col Dennis in Winnipeg
Col J S Dennis, commissioner of Canada’s Department of Colonization and Development, outlined progress by the association since 1919. He cited figures: land and equipment valued around 20 million dollars, with 16 million land, 3.6 million chattels, and 1.9 million in buildings. He stressed the value of agricultural families to Canada, noting a five-member family adds 1,583 dollars annually to the economy and 716 dollars in transport benefit. He argued railway involvement boosts regional trade and that CP Rail’s 76 million spent on western colonization surpasses government outlays, underscoring broad national gains from colonization efforts.
