To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

This brought the province out of stagnancy, and furnished an adequate revenue to carry on the public service and to build some of the roads that were so urgently needed.
McBride, having thus succeeded in making the financial position of the province unassailable, was able to give a guarantee to the Canadian Northern interests to enable them to finance the building of that portion 140 BRITISH COLUMBIA IN THE MAKING of their trans-continental system that traverses British Columbia. In return for
...this guarantee he bargained with the Canadian Northern to build a system right through Vancouver Island. This masterly piece of policy forced the Canadian Pacific Railway to carry on the island railway (the Esquimalt and Nanaimo), so that in less than five years from now Vancouver Island will have two completed fines of railway running through its length, with branches going to its many ports.
In the past the Dominion and Provincial Govern- ments were always at loggerheads. When the Liberals were in power the province was most unfairly treated, questions of vital interest to the Pacific Coast being ignored at Ottawa.
