About this book
Canada and the British Immigrant is by Emily P. Weaver. The prefatory note says that by the writing of the book the writer is in a measure offering to be a guide to any prospective immigrant choosing to avail himself of those services. The prefatory note says the writer came out from England, a good many years ago, as one of a large family, to settle in Canada.
The text says that when the Loyalists came there were no roads in Upper Canada or New Brunswick, and no steamboats on the lakes or rivers. The text says that a year ago it was said that several thousand experienced workers could get work at wages ranging from $10 (£2) to $35 (£7) the month, in addition to board and lodging, or a rent-free house. The text suggests that before buying tickets for Canada the intending emigrant might do well to write to Commissioner D. C. Lamb, of the Salvation Army, which makes arrangements for emigrants.
