The "Sunny way" was the phrase which
marked the Laurier years. This period was initiate on
July 11, 1896 when the Conservatives were thrown from
office by the electorate and replaced by the Liberals. The new government
continued to open up the west, began to build up the
military including a new Canadian navy, pushed new
railways across the country and presided over the
greatest gold rush the world has ever witnessed. These
were times of growth, optimism, new frontiers, unlimited
horizons and a hardening of the Canadian identity.
