Canal

In the North, much of the work involved in building the canals was performed by immigrants -- Irish, British, German.

But in Virginia and other points south, the canals largely were dug with slave labor.

Canal building made slavery more profit-able for slave owners and in that way en-couraged slavery and slave ownership.

While hiring out slave labor might have been a great deal for plantation owners, it was one of the worst things that could have happened for the slaves.
