Canadians Accused
(N.Z.P.A. -Reuter —Copyright) PARIS, Nov. 28. General De Gaulle yesterday accused the Canadian Federal Government of being “partial” in its treatment of the French Canadians. The Ottawa Administration had put the French Canadians “in a position of inferiority,” he told his press conference. He said two conditions must be met before Quebec was “free.” The century-old Canadian Constitution must be altered, he said, to permit co-operation between French and Englishspeaking Canada. In this way Quebec will not be “overpowered by the United States,’ he said. Secondly, he said, there must be “solidarity of the French community on both sides of the Atlantic. This is being done.”
