8. Railway D CW suggests US pays for railway CE will pay ¼ costs Nova Scotia wants CW to pay for Railway Colonies should pay for their own Each Atlantic colony gets 2 stops –CE & CW get five stops

9. Trade D US will pay for portion of railway for mutual free trade CW supports total free trade CE supports free trade Nova Scotia does not want free trade NB suggest railway & free trade are linked PEI wants sectoral free trade (tariff on imports)
