I take It. so long as we are at peace with them and they are British provinces. Then let me say a few words about the exodus. As I said. the exodus began to b alarming. A few days ago I was looking through the emigration returns and discovered that there have landed In Canada since the spring of 188L not less than 1.100.000 European immigrants. The natural increase of inhabitants Is very great. and could not have been less than 800.000 more. And yet their minister of custom.. in his last report. in estimating the per capita tax under the tariff estimates an increase of only about 450.000 population since that time.
