You can email your question to the Vancouver Public Library here http://www.vpl.ca/library/details/email_us
and you should also call the Central branch of the Vancover Public Library http://www.vpl.ca/branches/details/central_library – it is a very large public library system, and they will have lots of information and suggestions for you. I see they have books like these on your subject:

Good luck with your project!
Ah, badger … that was so sweet of you to respond to Michael in such detail. 🙂
@ Michael
Badger is renown here at the Isaac Brock Society for her researching skills. You can’t go wrong following the excellent leads she has provided. I hope you get an A+ on your project. Maybe later you can tell us how it went for you. Now you’ve piqued my curiosity to learn something about Sir Sanford Fleming.
@Embee, if I could only offer my responses in rhyming verse or a witty ditty as you so often do – that would be something!
