over 300000000 what canada spends for great britain is really loaned to great britain and will be repaid or credited to canada later on p- i great britain needs so much ready rash to finance her own expenditures at home for herself and for our allies that she must buy on credit from canada and from every otlier country where she can get credit of course great britains credit is so good that other countries in order to get her trade are quite as willing to give her credit as we are in canada canada wants to help great britain not only because canada wants britains trade but because we ore canada and she is great britain both members of the same great empire kin of our kin our mother land for canada it is both a filial and patriotic duty to supply great britains war needs and remember her needs are our needs also it is in canadas selfinterest to supply tliose needs and thus keep open a market for our products now britain needs our wheat our cheese cattle hogs and many manufac tured articles canada also needs many of these things between the two it amounts to more than a million dollars a day in cash and the producers must be paid in cash neither canada t nor great britain cduld go to a canadian farmer and buy bis wheat or his cattle on credit the farmer and all other producers might be ever so willing to give tlicir country credit but they could not do it because tliey have to pay cash for wages for rent materials etc tliey must be paid ia cash or its equivalent so canida says to great britain i will lend you the money o that you can pay cash to canadas producers for what you want i will borrow tliio money from our own people just i u borrow money from your people i will alo linoi from the people of canada money to p ly caji for all the pro duct that can ula a- well u great britain needs ill ci id a that is cm id is practical patriotic part in helping to wm the war without this credit the canadian pro ducer could not sell to great britain and without thee canadian products the war would be prolonged so it is necessary for canada to give to great britain the credit in order that canadas own producers who net a n market wdl havi one and in order tint great britain which needs the products to win the war will iict them now how does canada get the money by wliii h both canada and bntamcan pay cash for canada products by bonowiug it from tlie people
