t was the megaproject to end all megaprojects. University of Toronto historian Bob IBothwell calls construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) from Ontario to the Pacific Ocean from 1881 to 1885 — 3,100 kilometres of new rails to complete a national system 4,100 kilometres long — “the most important building project in Canada’s history, because it secured Canada’s destiny as a nation spanning the continent, Atlantic to Pacific. The CPR was the sine qua non for completing Canadian confederation.” >> WIKIMEDIA COMMONS (TOP) / HERITAGE SERVICES CPR (BOTTOM) Top Photo: Canadian Pacific Railway syndicate member Donald Smith drives the last spike to join the east and west sections of the railway at Craigellachie, B.C. on Nov. 7, 1885.

LIBRARY AND ARCHIVES CANADA Chinese labourers at work in the mountains of British Columbia on the CPR railroad project.

Author Pierre Berton wrote about the tremendous cost in lives lost due to construction hazards during the CPR build in his two books The National Dream and The Last Spike. One season, 15,000 men were on the job in the northern Ontario section alone with the author documenting numerous incidents of workers maimed and killed due to haphazard blasting practices and other perils. The pay was generally two dollars a day — but half that for Chinese workers imported by Andrew Onderdonk, the contractor building sections of track for the federal government through some of the most dangerous sections of B.C. The Chinese workers, said to be considered more dispensable than whites, were often given the most dangerous jobs and as the University of British Columbia’s Chung Collection website points out, they suffered a terrible price with deaths in rock slides, collapsing tunnels, falls from bridges and the like numbering over 600.
