Additional information

The Canadian Pacific Railway's completion in 1885 was a condition of British Columbia's entry into Confederation, and the financial crisis that nearly killed the project in 1883 — averted only by an emergency government loan pushed through by Macdonald — is one of the more consequential near-misses in Canadian nation-building. Cook Islands has issued commemorative dollars under licensing arrangements since the 1990s, functioning essentially as a mint-for-hire for themed collector series with no circulation intent whatsoever.
