Légende
'The New North-West Passage', 1887. Britannia points towards the Canadian train and says that no more will lives have to be lost, as were those of Franklin and his crew, in trying to negotiate the North-West Passage. As it is part of the Empire, Canada will be happy for Britain not to have to rely on 'furtive enemy or doubtful friend' but will allow access via the Dominion's land where Britain can count herself 'at home'. From Punch, or the London Charivari, October 15, 1887.
