Animated Map of Territorial Evolution of Canada
Animation - Canada 1867-1999 on Government of Canada -Altas of Canada site.
HUGE selection - play around with menu on left side once window opens
Keep the rivers and lakes in mind as this animation plays through.
NB Ont & Quebec grew tremendously into the 'territories' in 1912 - after Alta & Sask were made "too big", by men from afar looking at maps of a few (million) acres of snow.
Alas, why did we ever switch from "Watershed" Boundaries to lines of lattitude & longitude?
