Besides the early fur trappers of Hudson Bay Company and the Nor West Company, the Canadian Pacific Railway was very instrumental in the settling of this country. They, in fact, were the ones that found many of the incredibly beautiful spots in the Canadian Rockies and then built the fabulous hotels at these spots, i.e. Banff Springs Hotel, Chateau Lake Louise. The Candian Pacific Railway runs from the east side of the country to the west side of the country. We happened to catch a Canadian TV program on the passenger train from coast to coast. It looked fascinating and fun. "All Aboard"!
