' 1'ana'dians',. who are the Worst <irT�ui<le.rH in this icuard, to return. -Recently-- even. the. i'atliolic Archbishop of Quebec issued .a letter to the Kreneh-CanadianH in thr United- Slates, nrKin^ lliem lo .' retnth Imme and encouraging those; Ivere t(> remain loyal to their traditions by st'ayinn in ('anada. Tlic. immigration statistics indicate that not' only-' is the return movement of .Canadians to Canada growing, but that "many United States iVvrmers are selling their farms and coming to ('anada because of the: prevalence of good, cheap land. In spite of what \\r have said rtUove, -,w<:. do, not wish to give the inipression that all is well with Canada. '".This country has . Ik'civ just a big sieve for the U. S. A. Millions of Canadians, native-lxirn aiuj others, resule urour neighbour's country. But this is an old and aggravated condition, which we believe only a wide
. OJHMI iinmigration policy can' solve. Only � through increased population can Canada, obtain- and secure .'permanent prosperity. But 'about this some other time. ' �.'-..- ;.
. Meanwhile, the 'Morning1- 'Journal's correspondent, who like Rip YahAVirikle-"-slept his forty winks, wakes' up and \sendswhat he imagines is a great news "sccx>p" to his paper, telling the world of a Jewish exodus from; Canada to the Cnited States. The fact is that Canada has thousands of Jews who came in from the United States and who have found in Canada a genuine opportunity for development. Slany of these came here as workers and are now leading and prosperous merchants and manufacturers. The needle industry is almost exclusively the .outgrowth of such immigrants. Canada is a land of glorious opportunity for Jewish immigrants. In many senses it offers evert hi-Uer opportunities than does the United- States." Would that Canada's <ioor� were .open to Jewish immigration ! I "nl\>nunately they are cKxscd. It ^oi'id \Jt well for as HMRV Jews as can
