When did the construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway start?
The Canadian Pacific Railway was built in 1881 (the exact date is not sure), by the Canadian Pacific Railway company, which was lead by Sir Hugh Allan (who turned out to be a real crook), and owned by a banker from Quebec named George Stephen and an executive member of the Hudson's Bay company called Donald Smith. William Van Horne supervised the overall construction and Sanford Fleming planned out the route. The last spike of the rails was in British Columbia, and the official photograph shows a politician or some other important figure hammering it in, but really, the workers hammered in the last spike moments later after the crowd dispersed. The CPR also brought on a dirty Canadian history, forcing Chinese men to work for less than the Canadians. Stepehen Harper made it up to the Chinese by paying each remaining person from this era that was Asian or involved a $20 000 sum.
