Historical Maps of Canada

A thread was recently started in the London section, but I thought it would be interesting to see historical maps of any kind, from across Canada. I am currently reading the Historical Atlas of Toronto, by Derek Hayes, which has some great examples! But I would love to see more, that demonstrate the development of our cities, provinces/territories, and nation.

Here's some to start

This one shows southwestern Ontario in 1957. Only a small section of the 401 has been completed.

This is a city map of London, from 1875

This is a city map of Toronto, from 1894
