On his continuing North American tour, Prince Albert and his party visited Montreal, the largest and richest city in Canada. He spent several days in the city, visited the Governor-General, worshiped at the Christ Church Cathedral, dedicated the new Victoria Bridge, attended any number of parades and balls, and toured the surrounding areas. He left for his next stop, the newly selected future capital of the Dominion of Canada, Ottawa. (By John Osborne)
