• Note: 1885; Murray Canal, Northumberland Co., Ontario; "Even when McCuaig left public life the subject continued to cause unrest in Prince Edward County. J.M. Platt, McCuaig's Liberal successor, resurrected the issue several times in 1883 and 1885, even though the work was well underway by this time. He claimed that local vessel owners found Weller's Bay a better harbour, and that the government's decision had been dictated by politics. One of his charges maintained that a pair of prominent local Liberals, the McMullen brothers, had purchased land around Weller's Bay in anticipation of the selection of that route, hoping to turn a profit by selling the land back to the government. Consequently, he argued the Conservative government deliberately selected the other route to avoid paying these men for their land."
