Canadian Illustrated News

[

"Come to Stay", printed in 1880 in the Canadian Illustrated News, which refers to immigration to the Dominion of Canada.] The "Canadian Illustrated News" was a weekly Canadian illustrated magazine published in Montreal from 1869 to 1883. It was published by George Desbarats.

The magazine was notable for being the first in the world to consistently produce photographs at a successful rate.
