Canadians Not Colonists. | A well-known Canadian journalist and author has been eslling attention to the fact, already referred to more than once or twice, that Canada is not now and never was a colony. The British North America Act says: "The | Provinces of Canada, Nova Scotia and | New Brunswick shall form and be one Dominion under the name of Canada; and . . . those three Provinces shall form and be one Dominion un- r that name accordingly." Jt would ' seem that when the Dominion was | formed these settlements ceased to be colonies, and became the Dominion of : Canada, therefore, there is no neces-' | sity for the 'constant reference to Can- ada as a colony, which is misleadi 1g, | and somewhat irritating to Canadiana, Canada is a nation in the making--a mation within a nation.--Standard of ire.
