CANADA’S FISCAL POLICY.
PRAISED BY VISITING ENGINEER. United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyrlgnt MONTREAL, August 31. “Canada’s progressive and active policy of Empire trade, farming, agreements with Australia, the West Indies and South Africa, even though she may have to wait for a tariff agreement with Britain, is very sound,” said Sir Alexander Gibb, a British engineer, who was commissioned by the Canadian Government to report on Canada’s harbours. In an interview he said: “The trouble is not with you here in Canada. It is with us in Britain—l mean we have got to have a tariff, and it is coming. After this National Government there will be an election, and a Conservative Government will come in, and we shall have a tariff. Then we can talk about Empire trade.”
