"Information About Empire Settlement Schemes and Passage Rates," Department of Immigration and Colonization, January 1927.
Although the Canadian government had reservations about the Empire Settlement schemes, the Department of Immigration and Colonization produced a large number of pamphlets and posters to explain the program. This pamphlet, issued in January 1927, provides a good summary of the regulations for the various schemes, including eligibility and passage rates, and is a good example of its kind.
