  • Brick Manufacturing Manitoba Heritage Manitoba Consolidation
    C O N S O L I D A T I O N 1897 – 1917 Consolidation Era (1897 – 1917) he few years before the turn of the twentieth century, and the first 10 years of the new century, saw Manitoba’s brick-making industry attain Tnew heights of production and operational sophistication. It was during these years that the largest and most technologically advanced operations in the history of the industry were attained (except for the very late entry of Lockport’s Red River Brick and Tile into the fraternity in 1971). And production was phenomenal. The first few years of this period were defined by two interconnected developments. The first was the inauguration of two new railway lines in Manitoba: the Canadian Northern (CNo, begun in 1896 in Manitoba and greatly expanded north and west through 1897 and 1899), and the Grand Trunk Pacific (begun in 1903 with construction to the west, via a more northerly route, beginning in 1905). Both of these new transcontinental lines brought even more opportunity for growth and development to Western Canada, and CNo was instrumental in opening the Parkland and Interlake regions of Manitoba to agricultural settlement, and thus a whole new market for southern brick-makers. The other development concerned immigration. With the success of Wilfred Laurier’s Liberals in the election of 1896, a new Manitoba Member of Parliament, Clifford Sifton (representing Brandon North) was appointed Minister of the Interior, and he quickly inaugurated a major new immigration policy. Seeking to populate the west with capable farmers, he had immigration agents reach out to Americans, people from Scotland and the North of England, and Eastern and Central Europe.
