Wilson went on. She pointed to the shortage of doc- tors, dentists, nurses and highly skil- led workers and artisans in this coun- try, and suggested that the influx of new immigrants could - help to fill these gaps.

For example the new immigrants had proved a great boon to the sugar beet industry, as well as other phases of our agricultural economy. i Look to Canada Many European countries are at present beset with unemployment pro- blems, and they cannot be expected to look after the many workers who are escaping from behind the Iron Curtain. It is natural that they should look to Canada for their fu- ture, she told the meeting. *"Euro- pean countries can offer these people only temporary asylum; they are forced to look elsewhere forea per- manent home."
