There were several Scots involved with the building of the railway -- or at least the political maneuvering and financing. Sir John A Macdonald and Hugh Allan were both born in Scotland, and Sir Alexander Tilloch Galt was born in England to a Scot. However, the railway wasn't really *built* by Scots. A fair number of European immigrants and 17000 Chinese immigrants did the backbreaking labour of getting through the Canadian Shield and the Rockies. There's a video about the railroad here: kzitem.info/news/bejne/yJWA0KiVp6JlgGk CGP Grey also did a fun video about the Canadian/US border: kzitem.info/news/bejne/0oOhv6B_emmemqw

My mom's best friend went on a "teachers exchange" to the UK, where one teacher from Canada goes to the UK for a year, and a teacher from the UK comes to Canada to take their place here. First snowfall (and it wasn't even that much, maybe 3" and stayed on the ground for about 4 days) the UK teacher figured that school would be cancelled. Boy was she surprised when there were no 'closure reports' on the tv/radio. You can imagine her surprise when winter REALLY hit.

Canada was founded by the English & French, but settled by Scots. In the year of Confederation, Gaelic was the third most common spoken language. When boatloads of Scots came over, there was generally a piper on the pier to help them assimilate. Canada has remained about 30% Scottish for the past 150 years. In 1856, Donald Sinclair & his family were on a ship on Lake Huron in a heavy fog headed for Kincardine; thinking they were lost, he started playing a lament on his pipes. A piper on shore heard it & played a lament back. The Captain, hearing the pipes, made for shore bringing them to safety. A piper still plays at noon in Ogilvy’s, a department store in Montreal. The largest Highland Games in North America takes place in Fergus, Ontario. You want to learn about how Scottish Canada is? A really fun read is, “How the Scots Created Canada” by Paul Cowan, or “Scots in Canada” by Jenni Calder, or “How the Scots Invented Canada” by Ken McGoogan. A more scholarly work is “John A - the Man Who Made Us; the Life & Times of John A. Macdonald” in 2 volumes which is a brilliant read - Sir John Alexander Macdonald, a product of the Scottish Enlightenment, laid down the blueprint for this Country: from the transcontinental railroad, to the North West Mounted Police (who became the Royal Canadian Mounted Police), who assisted homesteaders to western Canada settle peaceably - “peace, order & good government” as opposed to lawlessness & manifest destiny. And being a Scot & a man who enjoyed his uisge beatha, said of his running mate in one election, the people prefer John A drunk to George Brown sober. Sir John A is somewhat of a hero to me - & not just because we’re the same clan - Ni h-Eibhneas gan Chainn Domhnaill!

It's a good video, but it runs into the kind of inevitable problems you have from just not having enough time to get into things. Like the 80% of the population being within 160km of the border thing. That's totally true, but it's mostly just a result of most of the population being concentrated along the St Lawrence river, leading down into the area between Lakes Huron, Erie, and Ontario, or in the lower mainland area of BC around Vancouver (along the Fraser river). If you look at the prairies there aren't really any big population centers along the border. Edmonton and Calgary have about a million people each about 3 and 6 hours north of the US respectively. Just one example, I'm not trying to take away from the video, but like I said, it's impossible not to miss stuff when you only have so much time, and when you gloss stuff it inevitably skews your perspective. And that's to say nothing of, like, Canada's colonial history with Indigenous peoples, the hundreds of years of complicated history between French and English Canada, and the East-West dynamics (which have been arguably the core political fault lines since the 90s). A thousand things to talk about for any of those issues and so many other topics entirely. Shit's complex. EDIT: I'd also recommend the "Canada in the Great War" video from The Great War channel, and mention that Canada's first Prime Minister, John A MacDonald, was originally from Glasgow.

Great video. A couple of corrections to make however. First off is that we say First Nations, not Native or Native American (I'm sure you'll immediately realize why.) Next, historically Canada and the First Nations Peoples have a long and complicated history. Is is accurate to say that Canada wouldn't exist were it not for our positive relations with the First Nations People, but as expansionism takes hold a dark and destructive era takes over between the government, the church and First Nations people which is still not fully rectified to this day. I really appreciate your interest in my country though. A few years back a series was created that I think you might enjoy. It covers all of the topics you said you liked, and probably many more.

I grew up being taught exactly what Paul states in his channel & it was reconfirmed when I was retaught general citizenship knowledge as Basic Military Qualifications. Seems quite official to me of a highly regulated program paid by the federal government is teaching something that you think is wrong. Additionally, it’s worth noting that decades before we got our currently flag the King, at the time, by Royal decree, ruled that Canada’s official colours were to be Red & White. This is the main reason the current flag does not feature any blue. Cheers

Seriously dude. IT is not New Findland Try New FOUNDland. I guess this needs to be added to your somewhat spotty research in a few minor places.

Hearing how excited you were to learn more about the railroad after mentioning how pleased you were about how well indigenous peoples were treated by the government was 100% cringe worthy. This came out a few years ago, I wonder if you have been properly educated on these subjects since. If you have been, how has your outlook changed in regards to the railroad and indigenous peoples, if at all?

Because Canada is is such a mosaic, you might be better off watching videos on each province or territory. Because of you are Scottish, I would recommend you start with Nova Scotia ... Here's one for you. kzitem.info/news/bejne/xJB_nqFmqaySdag
