Very good. Minor spotting. Size 11.5 x 14 Inches. This is a beautiful example of the legendary American map publisher Samuel Augustus Mitchell Jr.'s 1968 map of the Canadian province of Ontario, or Canada West. Centered on Lake Ontario, this map covers from Lake Erie eastward from Detroit, Michigan and Lake Huron at the northwest, as far as Quebec with Grand Manitoulin and Georgian Bay to the north. Canadian provinces and territories were under British and French control from the 16th century, until France gave up its claims in the Treaty of Paris in 1763. Canada would remain a collection of British colonies until its confederation in 1867, when the British Province of Canada was divided into Quebec and Ontario and the British colonies of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia incorporated as Canadian provinces.

The Treaty was a move towards free trade, in which the United States and Canada opened borders and shared navigation rights.
