During the course of q reply to an
address presented to Hon. Robert Rog.
ers, the newly appointed Minister of
the Interior OF Canada at banquet
given at Winnipeg in his honor that
gentleman spoke on immigration The
tone Of his remarks was that he intend
ed to pursue an aggressive and for.
ward policy in the matter Of immigra,
ton. In part, he said:
"The most important branch per
haps Of that. departments (Interior) IL
that Of immigration.
IF there Is anything more than an
other we want here 1t is q greater pop
ulation, and It shall be my duty to pre-
sent to the people In all parts Of the
world where desirable emigrants are
to be found the advantages and the
great possibilities of this country. We
have received In the past q reasonably
large immigration from south Of the
international boundary. and in this
connection let me say just q word for
our American cousins who have found
happy homes amongst us, and those
whom we hope to welcome in greater
numbers In the years to come. There
are hundreds Of thousands Of them In
our prairie provinces, happy In the en-
joyment Of freedom as great as they
ever knew, and all contributing In q
material way towards the development
Of Canada We are not blind to their
value as settlers. They come better
equipped with scientific farming
knowledge than most OF our emil
grants. and constitute without doubt
the wealthiest class Of emigrants any
new country hes ever known. As
head Of the immigration department It
win be my privilege to offer them q
welcome hearty and sincere, and to
30 contribute to their welfare that un-
der the protecting folds of the Union
Jack they viii enjoy AZ great degree
Of liberty and happiness as under the
Stars and Stripes. The Borden gov
eminent cherishes nothing but the
kindliest feelings for the people OF the
great republic to the south, and will
do all in its power to increase the
bonds of kinship and neighborly good
feeling that has so long existed.
(Hear, hear.)
While We adopt vigorous emf
grafton policy in that country. we win
also adopt the same vigorous policy in
other parts Of the world. We viii go
to England, Ireland and Scotland, and
every other country irrespective of
race. creed or nationality. where we
can find suitable and desirable emf
grants for this great country. I think
much good work can be done in those
countries, and especially perhaps at
the present time in England. Ireland
and Scotland. Now, then, 1t will be
my duty to stir up. that policy In the
most vigorous manner possible"
