What we celebrate now and to-night is not the war and the struggle between our peoples, not the last battle our peoples fought against each other, but the beginning of that century of peace which is their pride and boast. You have said that never during that century has either country seen within its territory armed forces of the other. That is not strictly correct. The other day a colonel of the United States Army told me that he expected the following week to march his command four miles in C...anada. I replied that he might. : he would, march them four thousand miles in Canada, and receive a welcome at every mile. This was, however, a friendly and not a hostile raid. Hot many months ago, speaking on a similar occasion at Plattsburg, I said that the battle of Plattsburg made the Treaty of Peace possible, because it had its effect in bringing the British to moderate their demands so that terms honourable to all could be agreed upon— Peace with Honour could be secured. The Battle of Plattsburg made the Peace possible ; the Battle of New Orleans, in my view, made it palatable and therefore permanent, In saying this, I do not affect to give the official Canadian view— if there is such a view— not the Canadian view, but one Canadian's view, which may or may not recommend itself to others, Canadians or otherwise.
