Saskatchewan and Alberta nobody Ever dreamed says the Bishop that Loyal parti Otic Canada would be so Recreant to her duty to the Empire As to allow these new territories so acquired to of turned into a series of Little bal kilns or a poor edition of the More parts of the United states. Canada took Over this great territory of the West from the Mother land in Trust for the British Empire and it was taken for granted that she would make it into Strong Loyal provinces like Ontario and the pro Vinces by the sea. Foreign flood but what has she done with that was committed to her charge for some years past the percentage of British blood has been steadily decreasing until to Day it is less than fifty per cent. And the flood being poured into these Western provinces by the two railway companies it making the situation from to British Point of View worse every Day. Is it not possible to induce on Tario still the dominant partner in the firm of Canada to take to heart the significance of the figures Given in the Toronto paper social welfare that from april 1, 1926, to july 31. 1927, of the immigrants who passed through the Winnipeg immigration authorities for Western Canada there were British As against 23.171 other nationalities. According to toe evidence Given by Deputy Egan at the Ottawa Between june and March .1928, no less than permits issued. J of what does this mean desirable Don t need them. Permit is needed because the immigrant in question is not Desir Able enough to come under the regu lations of the department. So that while the regulations in great Britain were being tightened up to such an extent that according to the figures above Only 158 britishers e. Month were coming West and no less than 135 permits a month Over nearly the same period were being issued to foreigners who Oxild. Not qualify the pro foreign regulations of the department. How Long will Loyal Ontario con sent to sit quiescent and see the British element in the West swamped in this Way we have already arrived at the position where hardly t any member can be to Paella i ment without this foreign vote and before very Long the members elected will themselves be foreigners with a thin veneer of naturalization. Then we shall have South Africa All Over again. Time to change poll or now is the tune to insist that the i government withdraw from the rail Way companies the agreement by which arc flooding the West with every kind of foreigner. Do the railway companies say we must have More population then let the government change the policy in the British Isles. If the government would Only make an Effort to show that britishers arc really welcomed in Canada we could get All the immigration we need. My work takes me Over the water every other year or so and 3f i can get All the missionaries and teachers i can use the government can get All the immigrants they want if they Only go the right Way about it.
