Then, too, the govern- ment anticipates a few hundred more guests and fresh rooms have to be prepared. There is a suggestion in official quarters that the Canadian forts be employed for herding Ger- man and Austrian prisoners from scenes of conflict, and this may eas- ily be carried into effect.

Every Canadian thereby sent sixty-seven dollars of Canadian money to enrich some other country; to keep foreign workmen employed. It does not séem so much, but it makes the gigantic total of $875,428,168. The value of all goods " Made in Canada" is less than double this. Of these imports 657 come from tke United States, yet by every condition of nature we are just as well equipped to manufacture many of these goods as our neighbour--and we de. If only 25% of this 675 million dollars' worth of goods were pro- duced in Canada, that production weuld give employment to 62,500 workmen, sufficient with their families and dependents to support 250,« 000 people, to populate a city larger than Winnipeg, or to create 16 cities the size of Guelph, Moncton, Brandon, or New Westminster.
