Les pouvoirs publics avaient envoyé
le capitaine Palliser explorer la région entre le lac Supérieur et les Rocheuses entre
1857 et 1860. Le développement de lOuest sera, en bonne partie, fondé sur les
renseignements fournis par les cartes et le rapport de Palliser, et ceux produits par
dautres expéditions semblables.
