This paper traces the introduction into Upper Canada of elements of the New South Wales System. The most significant development was the institution in 1825 of a sales policy, at the instigation of the imperial government. Using data drawn from pro / co 47, stepwise multiple regression analysis is used to describe the ‘upset’ price of land in relation to six independent variables. Population density, the number of mills, and distance to road are identified as the most significant variables in the minds of those who set land prices. Dans cet article, on fait le suivi de certains éléments du système ‘New South Wales' à partir de leur introduction dans le Haut‐Canada. Leplus important fait à signaler est l'institution en 1825 d'une politique des ventes par le gouvernement impérial. À l'aide de données tirées du pro/co 47, une analyse de régression multiple pas‐à‐pas (‘step‐wise’) est utilisée afin de caractériser la mise à prix des terres par rapport à six variables indépendantes. l'analyse démontre que la densité de population, le nombre de moulins et la proximité de la route étaient les variables les plus significatives dans l'esprit des gens qui établissaient les prix des terres
