Fathers of Confederation

Thank you all for your great comments on my photo of the Harvest Room at the Hotel MacDonald. So the Hotel MacDonald is named after Canada's first Prime Minister Sir John A. MacDonald. The lounge is called the Confederation Lounge and one of the main features is this huge print of The Fathers of Confederation which features the many men who played an instrumental role in forming The Dominion of Canada
