If the country was to be made a battle ground it would, as a matter of course, be solely as the result of imperial policy; but he did not see that there was any founda- tion on which to ground a belief that the whole force of the empire would not be placed at our disposal in case of danger. A great deal had been said about the doctrines urged by certain parties in the British House of Commons, but Canadians should bear in mind that those persons, who thus mistook the position of Canada, and bas...ed their theory upon it, were not the men who held the destinies of the empire in their hands. As forming part of the empire we should be prepared to share in her difficulties as well as her prosperity. If the mother country were assailed, Canadians should not, and would not, stand by with folded arms. But, on the other hand, they were entitled to expect in the hour of danger, from the mother country, that support and assistance to which they were entitled and which they had always received. Those who said, in the House of Commons, that Canada would receive no assistance were also those who maintained that England should have no colonies.
