Examines the Canadian government’s record for 1887 through a broad collection of official papers.

This volume compiles a wide range of reports, tables, and documents that documented public accounts, railway matters, census data, and administrative topics across the Dominion of Canada. It provides a snapshot of governance, infrastructure, and policy issues in the late 19th century.

The book gathers material from Parliament’s Sessional Papers, including detailed listings, financial statements, and annual reports. From railway subsidies to inspector reports, mangled by index entries and scattered ephemera, the edition presents the raw material that fed decisions and accountability.

Key contents include public accounts, estimates for the coming year, and supplementary estimates.
It catalogues official reports on fisheries,Indian affairs, militiа, and the administration of penitentiaries.
It lists shareholders, town-site covenants, and land arrangements tied to major projects and settlements.
It also features alphabetical and numerical indices to help locate topics across the volume.

Ideal for readers interested in 19th-century Canadian governance, policy history, and historical data compilation.
