History

Anestetic [448]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Throughout the 20th century there had been a good deal of opposition in Quebec to the Seaway based on the fear that Montreal and Quebec City would by bypassed by river traffic and lose a great deal of their port and transshipment business. While that opposition likely represented a group of specific interests with a great deal of influence, by the early 1950s opinion in the province tended to be that a Seaway would benefit Quebec economically. This tendency was based on belief that Montreal, and the province in general, would benefit from shipping the recently-discovered iron ore in the Ungava region (which straddled the northern Quebec and Labrador border) to the steel factories of the Great Lakes region. A number of companies had joined with the American Hollinger-Hanna group to form the Iron Ore Company of Canada, and this conglomeration of U.S. interests signed a development deal with Quebec in 1951, helping pave the way for commencement in 1954 of the long-delayed St. Lawrence Seaway and Power Project.

Define annuity as used in the
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:The treaty violations by the United States and late and unfair annuities by the Indian Agents had caused  increasing problems on hunger and poverty among the settlers and the Native Americans. Many Dakotan traders had demanded that annuities must be paid or else they will stopped providing goods on credit basis.

Explanation:The US government signed two treaties with the Sioux in exchange for large portions of the Minnesota Territory in 1851. The Treaty said that the land would be given in exchange for compensation in the form of annuity cash payments and trade goods.

The problem was that the organization was poor and corrupt and the resources did not get to the Sioux. Things got worse when Minnesota entered the Union and the government repossessed half of the territory and gave it to white settlers. All of this was the perfect storm for the Sioux uprising in 1862.

Which cloth was popular in England for its floral design texture and low price​
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

Chintz - printed cotton

Explanation:

<u>Chintz is the type of cloth made of cotton which is printed upon. The design features colorful, vivid colors</u>. It was <u>imported from India</u>, and it started being sold in Europe at the beginning of the seventeenth century. It was rather cheap, and people used it frequently in England. It was mostly used for the furniture and curtains but later was turned into the dresses for maids and servants.

The European textile makers could not get a hold on the process of making, so they were using profits as chintz was so widely popular. Therefore, the English Parliament forbade the import of chintz and usage of the material in 1720. The ban was lifted in 1759. when the mills of England and France started producing their chintz fabric.
