While the Colonial trade nourish ed generally under the preference the greatest advantages accrued t0 the Cenadae. upper and MW"-

‘The control which Customs dut- ies can exercise over the direction of trafficwas clearly shown in this particular instance: The Colonhts had a preference on wheat sub ject to‘ a sliding scale but averag- ing about 6s per Quarter. The Stal- es of the Middle. West were also large producers of wheat which they soon began to export to ‘Brit- ain through Canada. it passed in as Canadian grain. Britain object- ed to this abuse of the preference and required" the Canadas to im~ pose a minimum duty on American wheat of 8s per quarter. This duty went, into the Can. treasury This still let a substantial margin or ad- vantage in favor of the Can. mark- et for American wheat. Flour, ground from American wheat enjoy ed the same preference. In conse- quence Canada. became not only the market {place for the wheat of the Middle West. but {large and rapidly extending flour milling business grew up especially in "Montreal. '

IBy the exlﬁhditure of largo sums advanced by Britain the Canal System of the 8t. Lawrence had lbeen brought to s-high state or ef~ ﬂciency. SlVlng. the Canadian transportation route-this was be- for the Railway age-in added advantage. The exclusion of for- 61811 ahlllﬂ from the Colonial trade was another source of pruﬂtsnd advantage to the Colonies but it had its disadvantages also when the volume of trade exceeded the supply oi! British ships.

When the year 1846 dawned the conﬁdent hope of the Csnadas was that the Middle West oif the United estates would become a com orc- ial adjunct of Canada. -

iBut suddenly those hopes were blasted. The British iCorn ibaws were repealed-the principmie of free trade was adopted by England and in consequence every Colonial . lpreference was letdown by three Annual reductions until in i849 ev- ery vestige of it was swept, away. To complete the disaster. the dawn» of the Railway age was breaking and the advantage of the ‘St. Law- rence route was minimized. Soon the tide of grain turned towards the American ports and carried with it much of the export grain of Upper Canada. The Maritime {Prov- inces suffered, especially in the lumber trade and in the loss of the exclusive privileges in the West
