What were positive effects of the Canadian Pacific Railway?
It was able to bring colonists from all over the world to settle in Canada West. Without the railway, Canada West would not have been able to develop so effectively. Also, when British Columbia entered Confederation, they were promised a railway. This fulfilled their requirements for joining Confederation and so the government no longer needed to make amends. Also, movement was now faster and easier between the west and east coasts. This would encourage trade within the country, rather than with the USA. Lastly, when needed, troops could be moved much more easily to where they needed to be in case of war.
Why was the building of the railway so important to Canada?
The building of the railway was crucial to Canada as it facilitated the movement of people and goods across vast distances, linking the eastern and western parts of the country.

Additionally, it played a significant role in the Confederation of Canada, as it assured provinces that they would be interconnected, thus strengthening the country as a whole.

Many groups were.

Then there were the many working Canadians, mostly Irish and Scottish who worked on the line to the mountains and the Chinese who made up one of the largest working groups at it's completion. But the most important by far was the Canadian Taxpayer. Which is why even to this day the East demands Canadian money flow West with few services being returned. That railway has yet to be paid for in full in the opinion of many Canadians.
