But even on such a basis, the Empire is so vast in its area, and so varied in its resources and in its interests, that the solution for which we are seeking will be surrounded by many difficulties ; and he would be a bold man who would attempt to frame a con- stitution which would satisfactorily meet the requirements of the situation. We are approaching a period when all parts of the Empire will want to have a voice in Imperial foreign policy, and in other subjects affecting the well-being of t...he community in general. This is not unnatural, and there can be no true consolidation until it is brought about. How it is to be done I am not prepared to say. I hope I have the proverbial caution of the Scotch too well developed to rush in where angels fear to tread. That some way may be found of meeting the aspirations of the Colonies does not, however, admit of doubt. I have made some reference to the question of an Imperial Parlia- ment. That may be the ultimate solution, or it may not. 320 Lord Strathcona, 1900 But, in the meantime, the formation of an Imperial Council, in conjunction with the Colonial Office, consisting of repre- sentatives of Her Majesty's Government, and of Canada and the Colonies, has been mentioned as a preliminary step, even if the Council were only consultative at the commencement.
