What Hon Robert Rogers Thinks of the Saskatchewan
Hon. Mr. Rogers answers Edmonton officials during a visit. He says the Hudson Bay railway will reach Hudson Bay shores in fall 1914 and the Saskatchewan river navigation between Edmonton and Le Pas will be underway. He expects Grand Trunk Pacific and Canadian Northern rails to Pacific Coast to spur branch lines serving grain regions. Edmonton is a gateway to Peace River country with vast potential traffic on the Saskatchewan river.
