forced on this Par Pardee Lambton West Rose to protest against the fact that such important legislation had not been brought Down earlier in the it was most improper when it was expected that parliament would pro rogue in a few Days that such a Bill should be brought As it did a direct blow at provincial he held that there was no urgency in the As the Board of consisting of two members from Ontario and two from the do had acted and were acting fairly to All not thinks Pardee Pardee did not believe that the navigation rights upon which the prime minister had Laid such stress were at All the boats were Small and Drew very Little water nor was the head of Waterpower in the International joint commission had found that the flow of water had been maintained at 30 feet above the natural the real reason for the Bill in Ardees View was to furnish Power for the City of Winnipeg and certain interacts in that there was available in the Winnipeg River a fall of Over and above the Norman and the White dog of 246 that was ample for the needs of Why did not Winnipeg interests develop their own Power the Winnipeg electric were Strong friends of the present govern and desired to take advantage of the expenditures already made by Orl vate interests in the province of that was the real milk of the Pardee asserted that the pres ent legislation was a renewal of the Effort which

to de rive her of her natural resources in water it ought not to be for the people of Ontario would resent it in the strongest sible Pardee appealed to the government to wait for a few months and get together with on Tario upon am Cable arrange Keefer port Arthur and be Nora also condemned the Bill Asun fair and irrespective of provincial the trouble with the whole he had been the phrase dependable All parties concerned wanted con the people of Kenora were afraid that the government was consulting the province of Mani neglecting the rights of their Koefer interrupted his argument Here to say that the name of Backus like a red rag to a Bull in connection with the i have never acted for Backus in my tie i have never received any instructions from him in regard to the i am acting solely from a sense of which i think has been Vio the people of Kenora had been in the position of a drowning Man catching at a their industries had been in and Backus had offered to make an agreement with he not understand Why the people of Winnipeg wanted to interfere with the establishment of an Industry at Backus had gone ahead with his plans but As soon As he had Learned the Legal he had filed an application with the Federal gov in this application the Federal government had an Opportunity to control the whole there was no need of the present Meighen said that he was sorry that a member from one of the districts affected by the legislation did not see his Way to supporting the the House could place the control of the flow inthe hands of Backus to be operated for his Busi Ness or under the control of the Federal to be used for the Benefit of All the the most insistent demand for this legislation came from Premier of the Industrial life of Many communities depended on the conservation of the these communities must not be abandoned owing to the ambitions of any City or of any however if the legislation the government intended to appoint the same men to the control Board As had formed the Board at the time of the Appeal for replies to Pardee Molloy Provencher said he was going to argue the Case from the common sense the people of Manitoba were demanding the it was protective legis and was Pardee had appealed to liberals to help de feat the in just As Good a liberals he Ever knew How to be Moloy declared the legislation was Liberal and represented the fight of the nation against private Manitoba did not have control of her natural and the Only body that province could Appeal to the Federal govern declared Pardee can prove that it would harm Ontario or Canada to the extent of one five cent i would not support they could not pro Duce any such it simply could not be the fight was not a question of provincial twas a question of protecting the people against the Backus Backus already owned several and if he eventually controlled the Lake of the Woods he would be in a position to Cut off the heat and Power to Winnipeg was trying to borrow Money to develop her water but was unable to do so because the financiers took the position that they could not loan Money with the whole situation in an unsettled if Backus were allowed to control the Norman dam he would be in a position to say to Manitoba you cant have Power unless you Deal with Backus had stated that in 25 years his son would be the most powerful magnate in for hotly declared decline to Bow the knee to King j Ontario said that she was under the tyrants but Ontario was trying to put her Heel on Manitoba was not going to Backus got so much from Canada that he did not know when to he would have to be put in his or Blake Winnipeg North said the Lake of the Woods should be controlled in the interests of both provinces and not for that of Backus the City of Winnipeg was keenly
