| Summary | "Canada To-day and To-morrow" by Arthur E. Copping is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work explores Canada's potential as a growing nation and discusses its resources, immigration, and population dynamics in comparison to the United States. The text serves as both a reflection on Canada's past and a vision for its future, emphasizing the country's natural wealth and the need for development and expansion. The opening of the book introduces the theme of Canada's destiny through a discussion of its population growth and resource potential, specifically comparing it to the rapid expansion of the United States. Copping highlights immigration as a crucial factor in this growth, detailing how Canada is gradually being recognized as a viable destination for new settlers, as opposed to the traditional focus on the United States. He sets the stage for a narrative that will blend personal experiences of travel alongside detailed examinations of various regions, presenting a comprehensive view of Canada’s position and future in the world.
