Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book establishes the Rainy River District as a hub for settlement and industry. A century of travelers have praised the region for its natural beauty and potential, a wilderness paradise for sportsmen and home to several indigenous tribes. With disputes over jurisdiction settled in Ontario's favor, attention turned to the territory as an agricultural hub. The book validates this enthusiasm, proving the soil's fertility, the climate's agricultural viability, and the ease of clearing the land. It further establishes that the lumbering industry and mining sector present additional employment opportunities, and that government incentives for settlers, such as free land grants and road and bridge construction, offer significant support. Concluding, the book argues that the Rainy River District presents a rare opportunity for individuals seeking a prosperous future in a land of exceptional potential.
