Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Speeches Delivered in Canada: In the Autumn of 1908 At the request of some of my Canadian friends, I have consented to the publication of the addresses which I delivered in Canada - mostly to Canadian Clubs - during my recent visit to that country. The only speech of any length delivered by me at any public meeting in Canada, which is not reprinted here, is my speech at the dinner of the British Empire League in Toronto on October 28th. This omission is not made because I desire in any way to modify that speech, still less because I fail to appreciate the importance of the occasion upon which it was delivered. The audience at the British Empire League dinner was as representative and influential as any I had the honor of addressing during my whole visit, and Colonel Denison´s speech on that occasion would have been alone sufficient to make the meeting a memorable one. But the conditions of an after-dinner speech are necessarily not the most favorable for the discussion of a complicated and somewhat technical subject like that of Imperial Preference, and, as a matter of fact, I dealt with precisely the same questions, but at greater length and with more elaboration, a few days later in my address to the Board of Trade of Montreal, which is included in this volume.
