老加拿大道是加拿大的魁北克和缅因州省之间久违的线索,在美国的东北角。是的,它真的失去了,并再次发现它是一个复杂的过程,涉及国家的最先进的技术。如何针对道路的位置是非常有趣的,我将返回到它的到来,因为我给你的信息......道路是在1817年开始一点点背景,几年前缅因州甚至成为一个国家。当时,魁北克是牲畜,农作物,鱼的主要市场,因此,到魁北克省的道路被视为必要的贸易在缅因州的官员。约20年,人员和货物流动主要是从缅因州到魁北克,但随后的趋势逆转为成千上万的加拿大人移居缅因州逃脱歉收,缺乏就业机会,和疾病的威胁。我认为是霍乱疫情.Besides这些负面的原因,在缅因州的主要建设项目也取得了国家非常需要工作的加拿大人的吸引力。我要强调,虽然,在此期间移民就在两个方向。事实上,人流和货流去完全无阻。甚至不是一个边防哨所,直到1850年左右。在当时的人看到缅因州和魁北克作为一个单一的地区,主要是因为法国的强烈影响,这仍然是明显的,在缅因州today.Eventually淘汰了,道路作为一个主要的铁路完成,最后,人们只是忘了它和它是如何来到丢失。这使我回到原来的话题。

祝大家每天进步一点点!
