To act in concert with individ- ual enterprises and not to restrain or discourage them, but at the same time to prevent monopolies and maintain eflcctive control over great corporations. Mr. Borden then summed up the general features of his policy and concluded with a. patriotic vex-oration that brought forth tremendous ep- plause tram the Opposition benches. Hr. Fitzpatrick Follows. Hon. Mr. Fitzpatrick followed Mr. Borden, and defended the govern- ment’s scheme until rem. In the evening be criticized Mr. Borden's speech and opposed his conclusions, He declared that the G.'I‘.l’. contract provided amply for control of rates, and that the question Vol running rights must be worked out by a. company. A Mr. W. 3.1{uthmpmuhnetrong speech in-replyrto the Hallsta- of Justice. He went into the Grand WPacific ”hafnium and 5. To firmly insist that any assist- ance given to the construction of raiIWays shall be amply compensated for by equivalent advantage secured to the people of the country. 3. To develop and utilizo for that. purpose the great national highway, the Intercolonial‘ Railway, on which we have expended some $70,000,000. Our great inland canals and Water- ways, upon which we have expended quite as much. 4. To promote the development 0! our country by encouraging coloniz- ation and settlement in districts suitable for tmt purpose. (1) To sécure the lowest possible rate in order that our people may obtain a. portion as large as possible of the value at which their products were sold in our domestic and for- eign markets, and consequently se- curing of the transportation of the Canadian products through Canad- ian channels. The criticism oflered the Grand Trunk Pacific scheme by the leader of the Opposition was stroug and eflcc- tive. The counter policy which he proposed was clearly defined and forcefully presented. His declarations in favor of Government ownership and the maintenance and dex’clopment of the Intercolonial Railway were something of a surprise to the Govâ€" ernment camp, which apparently did not look for such advanced views. The Opposition members energeticallv applauded Mr. Borden, and these de- monstrations of approval were not least enthusiastic over the strong de- clarations in favor cf Government ownership of railways. True Transportation Policy. Mr. Borden insisted that the ob- jects of a transportation policy should be: 2. To promote trade between the great divisions of our country. EIGflVERNMEHI l8 sum Mr. Borden did not go into details in the enunciation of his policy. He made it clear, however. that for ev- ery concession conferred upon rail- ways the. country should receive re- turns in the form of control of rates or some corresponding value. The line between Quebec and Winnipeg, Mr. Borden said, should be built only after full information had been obtained, and then it should be built as a Governinent road. owned and operated by the Government. As to the far west, the leader of the Opposition declared in favor of a. policy that would require the Ca- nadian Northern Railway and the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway to pierce the Rockies by the same pass. If the two companies failed to come to terms on this point, than the Government should build a new road through the mountains and give the Grand Trunk Pacific and Canadian Northern running rights over it on fair and equitable terms. the Canada-Atlantic Railway by lease or nationalization. 'Nauonallzo Part of 0.2.3. Mr. Borden next proposed that the Government should control that por- tion of the Canadian Pacific line bo- tween North Bay and Fort William and make it a national highway, im- prove it and give all railways run- ning rights over it. A similar pol- icy ho proposed with the Canadian Northern Railway and the C.P.R. be- tween Fort William and Winnipeg, One or both of these railways the Government should improve in con- sideration of obtaining such control as would enable it to give running rights to other railways. A connect- ing link would be a line between De- pot Harbor and North Bay. and this the Government should build in order to allow the Intercolonial Railway to run into Winnipeg. By this plan Mr. Borden urged that- the Grand Trunk Railway would secure connec- tion with- the west within six months. a desirable alternative_ to the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway scheme.
