The feeling in Canada against the Commonwealth tariff, said Mr. Gow, was still strong. The people there had expected far better terms from Australia. The All-Red route was being freely discussed by Canadian commercial men when Mr. Gow was in Cauada, and they were hopeful that the service would be /brought into operation.
