Book Imperial Preferential Trade

Download or read book Imperial Preferential Trade written by Adam Shortt and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-09-20 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Imperial Preferential Trade: From a Canadian Point of View Mr. Chamberlain, with his unique capacity for burying himself in one idea at a time, has been chiefly instrument al in preaching the decline of British power and capacity. Nothing more strikingly demonstrates his well-known demagogic influence than his remarkable feat in bring ing so many British people from a condition of prosperous contentment to the very brink of ruin, within a twelve month. The very Empire itself is for him but as clay in the hands of the potter; for has he not assured us time and again, that by 'means of the Boer War he brought it to a condition of unparalleled unity and solidarity; and has he not, within a very short period, reduced it to such a parlous condition that nothing can save us from destruo tion but committing our destinies to his charge, by giving him a blank mandate to work out our salvation N ow we in Canada cannot dictate to the British people what com mercial policy they must adopt, for we in the past chose for ourselves, and insisted upon following the example of the United States, not that of Britain. We can have noth ing to say, therefore, even should the British people under the influence of Mr. Balfour, Mr. Chamberlain, and their assistants, become convinced that their day of greatness and independence has suddenly passed, and that hence forth instead of following a policy of their own and lead ing the commercial world, as they have done so long, they must go back several centuries and learn once more to imitate the example and'copy the policy of other Europ ean nations. But, in the face of such possible changes, it behooves us in Canada to know where we stand, so that we shall not be blindly committed to a line of policy which may be inconsistent with our national interests and dignity, or threaten the maintenance of those higher relationships within the Empire, which must be inde pendent of fiscal changes in any part of it.

Book The Kingdom of Canada  Imperial Federation  the Colonial Conferences the Alaska Boundary  and Other Essays  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Kingdom of Canada Imperial Federation the Colonial Conferences the Alaska Boundary and Other Essays Classic Reprint written by John S. Ewart and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Kingdom of Canada, Imperial Federation, the Colonial Conferences the Alaska Boundary, and Other Essays I am very glad to have an opportunity of addressing the Canadian Club, but I find much greater gratification in the fact that there is a Canadian Club to address. Effects do not occur without causes, and it is interesting to inquire into the meaning of the somewhat sudden rise of these clubs, of this phenomenal desire for the study of our political situation, of this simultaneous eagerness for enlightenment with reference to the problems that confront us. To my mind the explanation is very simple. Canada has commenced to realize herself, to believe in herself, and to recognize that for her, too, there is a principal part to play upon the stage of the world. Canada has become conscious of the feelings and aspirations and the strong strivings of strenuous manhood, and, on the other hand, of the utter impossibility of full expression and assertion in mere colonial status. Divine discontent (the necessary pre-condition of all improvement), in regard to her political semi-servitude, has taken strong hold upon Canada, and she is taking stock, and extending the figures, and considering where she now is, and what her future is to be. In my opinion that is the meaning of these clubs; not social clubs are they, nor political, but student clubs; meetings, at short intervals, of serious men for the purpose of helping one another to resolve those problems of national life which are now pressing themselves upon us.

  • Publisher : Forgotten Books
  • Release : 2017-11-09
  • ISBN : 9780260618603
  • Pages : 24 pages

Download or read book Canada and Empire Free Trade written by Max Aitken and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-09 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Canada and Empire Free Trade: What the New Imperial Policy for Prosperity Means to Canada; A Manifesto Canada is already the fifth industrial nation in the world, and there is no reason why she should not take a higher place. Part of our aim, for example, is to secure for her a far greater share in the New Zealand motor market, which is at present dominated by America. But industrial expansion of any sort must be based, as the American export trade has been, on a constant and prosperous home market. It is this which Canada quite rightly desires to protect for her manufacturers, and nothing in our scheme will prevent her from doing so. But her home market depends on internal prosperity, and what will become of it if her farmers are crippled? This is where Great Britain is in a position to confer benefits in return for the benefits she asks. She is, in plain terms, the only considerable buyer of wheat in the world. Her annual import is roughly equivalent to Canada's exportable surplus. But Canada is not the only country that exports wheat. It comes from the Argentine, where it is grown under labour conditions far below any British standard, at a producing cost as low as from 60 to 65 cents a bushel, from Prussia, where export is liberally subsidised by the State to the tune of about 35 cents a bushel, and, in the form of flour, from France, where also export is subsidised. This last subsidy works out at the equivalent of 60 cents a bushel, roughly the same figure as the total Argentine producing cost.

Book Canada and Its Relations to the British Empire

Download or read book Canada and Its Relations to the British Empire written by J. W. Flavelle and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-16 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Canada and Its Relations to the British Empire: An Address It will be agreed that there is a widespread feeling in the Overseas Dominions and in Great Britain and Ireland that our mutual relations within the Empire must undergo a change in the reconstruction period following the war. There will not be the same agreement as to what the changes should be. We all know there are wide differences of Opinion as to what should be done, as there may well be in a matter of such grave importance. There is an important body of Opinion which is unsettled rather than informed, and which is discovering itself, at least to the extent that it is inquiring what the problem is and what are the suggested alternatives for its solution. Permit me to ask - have you reached a clear belief that the Empire should continue? Do you consider it has life which is so vital as a great civilizing force that you refuse to contemplate the world being deprived of its benefits Does it represent to you power and usefulness and efficiency in unselfish service, and have you grown into a conviction that it possesses such abiding value to those who are within it, and to the world out side, that its members should perpetuate it in an indissolubleunion? Or have you thought of it as something that only may continue, that it is probably a passing development which will naturally break up into its constituent parts later, and that the possibility of such a result does not disturb you?
