There is to be the ascertainment in some way of the question whether the man who presents himself has -been a bona fide resident in Canada for a year and whether he is one of the persons prohibited by reason of his opinions or character or previous life? Is there any existing mechanism which is adapted to a railroad train by which all the men who paid for their tickets over the border are to be sifted out? If not. is it safe. within any legislative precedent. to give practically to the CommissionerGeneral of Immigration the vast power to construct all this mechanism and incur all this expense? Now. there is my trouble with this matter. which I suppose the Senator can remove.
