Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Canadian Pacific Railway and Its Capitalization (a Sequel to "the Burden of Railway Rates"): Compiled From a Series of Articles Published in the Free Press, Winnipeg, September-October, 1912 With reference to this clause it might be eaid that it in almost identical with the clause inaerted in the Act which validated the contract with the Can adian Pacific Railway Cc. Of 1872. That clause, specified that the said railway befits in fact a public work constructed mainly at the expense of the Dominion tor the benefit of all the Provinces thereof. Here is a frank admiealon that the enterprise wee a public one and carried out at the ex pense ot the country at large. The Canadian Pacific owes its existence to the fact of its being. As this partien lar clauee eaya, a public work. There is between public work and private enterprise a very great diaerence.
