Railway lines within the original Province of Manitoba, Since then many applications have been made from other quarters of a similar nature, and it is to meet the demand that this pamphlet has been prepared. It is hoped that the facts submitted will give to persons residing outside Manitoba a fair and clear understanding of the true position in which our people are placed regarding this question, and will explain the unanimous action taken by our Provincial Legislature to assert our constitutional rights as a Province having every privilege and right possessed by the sister Provinces that constitute the Dominion of Canada.
