In the discussion of the tariff question which is perplexing the new administration, there is one phase of the problem which should be given careful consideration. It is very important for the people of this continent and ultimately for the entire world, that the United States and Canada should develop harmoniously. Were Canada forced to build herself up as a part of Europe rather than as a part of North American, it would be a detrimental matter to both continents. There probably would be very little advantage in a political union of Canada and the United States. Both Washington and Ottawa have all the public business than they can properly handle. Yet it is the duty of both governments to adopt policies which will further mutual good will.
The future prosperity of Canada should be bound up with the hemisphere on which Canada is situated and not upon a tradition of colonial dependence. Moreover, as the United States become more and more an industrial center, she must, of necessity, look toward Canada's magnificent wheat fields and her extensive grazing lands to solve her future food question. When the tariff is finally settled it will be very unfortunate if it does not encourage trading across the long boundary line which stretches the length of the American continent.
