DIR. MoNrAGUE's SPEECH.
The next speaker was Dr. w. H. Montague OF
Toronto He said that the sentiment Of the
time Dr. Montague then went OH to discuss
the general question of protection in Cafada.
He said that the Dominion in the last years ~
it's existence had tried all forms of trade re-
Iations from reciprocity to free trade Ali these
had been dropped in favor Of protection since
the time when protection was firmly estaDisheo
the country had seen more prosperity than ever
before The speaker pointed out that to-day
the policy of Canada was to allow 10 come III
free eli the necessities of life, but to maintain
and protect its own industries against the world
II come here to tell you" continued Of' Moi
tague. that no government can exist IN cam
ada to-day that does not maintain the sSstelh VI
protection of Canada's industries
Dr. Montague then took UP the subject OF reel
procty between Canada and the United otaIea'
the matter upon which those present were
chiefly interested to hear his views
I'VE have tried al various times" Dr. Mons
tague said, ito a reciprocity treaty, ana
these attempts failed. Now the conditions have
changed The United States IS developing the
great fields of the West and you nave a large
shipment to the agricultural world. Canada is
making manufacturing products for her own
people and is trying also for great market
outside. In Canada to-day there is no party or
no politician who is agitating for reciprocity
and there is no great desire for it."
In closing DR.. Montague paid tribute TO the
United States. and especially to her policy I'm
expansion, and in accomplishing what he termed
cleaning the unclean of the world He hoped
for the future he said. that the two great
branches of the AngIo-Saxon race. Great Britain
and America. would go forth together policing
the world a great movement which. he said,
would guarantee for all time political and relig-
ious liberty throughout the world. The speaker
received a remarkable demonstration at the close
of his speech.
