Synopsis

This book presents a detailed assessment of the British government's experiment in state-sponsored emigration of Irish citizens to Canada during the early 19th century. Specifically, the book analyzes the effectiveness of the state's efforts to reduce Ireland's population and promote economic development in Canada. The author argues that the program succeeded in relocating thousands of people while stimulating Canada's economy, and that the resulting population shift had broad implications for both Ireland and Canada.
