Every part of Eu- rope and many parts of Asia and Africa ha contributed something ta bur growth. Since we enjoy the fruits of mnutual endeavour, how can anyone honestly say one group is superior to another? Grant- cd, that there have been im- migrants who have brought embarrassment and shame to their adopted country, but it is also true that, some of the rnast daring pjoneering in exc- ploration and business ventures have been successfully cn sumated by immigrants, whose initiative has astounded the world, and bas helped place Canada in the forefront of the nations. I arn personally acquainted with immigrants who are in- tensiveiy Canadian, and who cannot understand why many native born don't seem to real- ize tbey have had the good fortune to have been born in a land that is simply teeming with advantages of ahl kinds; that it behooves thcm to act, wherever they go, in suchi inanner that others will admire-, and envy them because cf 1 their Canadianism.
