Foreword
The "Canada" Handbook Series was initiated nineteen years ago to supplement the field of the Canada Year Book by offering to teachers and pupils in the public schools and to Canadian citizens generally a brief and attractive record of current economic conditions at a price within the reach of all. The Year Book is primarily a detailed reference work and is not designed to meet the need for a popular publication medium of this kind.
The growing popularity of the Handbook and the numerous special editions and reprints that have been required, by Government Departments and outside sources to meet their special needs, attest to the soundness of the original plan and to its value.
The past two decades have seen expansion of the national economy in every direction, and, since a considerable proportion of space in the Handbook is allocated to illustrations, the editorial task of giving a well-balanced presentation in a publication of this size and at low cost becomes more difficult each year. Currently many thousands of copies are being distributed abroad through our Diplomatic and Trade Commissibner Services and it is desirable for this reason alone that the Canadian economy should be explained fairly completely and that appropriate feature material should be included.
This year the frontispiece marks the recent decision of Newfoundland to enter the Canadian Confederation, an event that it is expected will be consummated in March, 1949.
