Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the state of trade and commerce in Upper Canada in the 1830s. The author delves into the causes of the severe economic distress faced by farmers, particularly focusing on the impact of low wheat and flour prices. The book discusses the restrictions placed on trade by Great Britain and the advantages enjoyed by the United States under a more favorable trade regime. The author argues that these factors, along with the lack of control over provincial revenues and the presence of a monopoly like the Canada Company, are hindering the economic progress of the colony. The book proposes various measures to alleviate the distress, including tax relief, the admission of certain foreign goods duty-free, and the imposition of duties on imports from the United States. Ultimately, the book highlights the importance of free trade and responsible government for the economic prosperity of Upper Canada.
