Prior to transportation of the criminal classes to Australia in the latter part of the 18th century, the policy was to ship the convicts to North America, primarily the 13 colonies but to a lesser extent, Canada. Maybe we should now revise this method; I'm quite sure that given the extent of the Canadian landmass, ten thousand foreign criminals deposited on Her Majestie's Canuk shores would soon be lost in it's great wilderness.
