Many of the houses which were occupied by
historically significant figures in Canada's history
have been preserved and represent not only the lifestyle
and living conditions of each of the figures but also an
idea of living conditions in their time and place.
John A Macdonald's
home in Kingston is an example of a well settled town in
the 1850's in a very English colony while Riel's House
is representative of a frontier existence where the
culture and styles of living were a little rougher then
in the Canada of 1867.
Many more of these locations have been
preserved across the country and are almost always with
the time for a visit.
