How
olten
have
we
alt
deplored
the
tact
that
thousands
upon
thousands
ot
out
most
promising
young
men
and
woman
find
it
necessary
to
leave
Canada,
in
order
to
seek
in
some
other
country
opportunities
for
the
employment
ot
their
talents
that
seem
to
be
lacking
here?
A?
individuals
we
hare
deplored
it,
becau&e
in
these
canes
the
sorrow
thai
is
caused
us
through
the
breaking
of
family
circles
and
home
ties
is
accentuated
by
a
sense
of
irrevocable
loss,
due.
to
a
feeling
that
the
separation
is
going
to
be
permanent.
And
from
a
broad
national
standpoint
we
have
deplored
it,
because
it
has
meant
a
serious
drain
upon
the
very
kind
of
population
gifted,
energetic,
ambitious
-that
we
most
need
to
help
in
developing
our
magnificent
natural
resources.
Must
we
continue
to
rear
and
educate
our
children
to
equip
them
aa
best
we
can
for
the
successful
careers
we
hope
will
be
theirs
only
to
lose
them
to
an
alien
flag
because
of
the
dearth
of
opportunity
for
them
at
home?
;i
Opportunity
of
any
kind
is
a
result,
Of
which
production
of
some
kind
is
always
the
cause.
Most
people
create
their
opportunity
by
engaging
directly
in
some
form
of
production,
such
as
farming,
fishing,
mining,
lumbering
or
manufact
uring.
These
people
provide
th&fo
unda
tion
and,
according
as
they
succeed,
opportunity
is
created
for
others
in
all
the
occupations
that
constitute
the
super-structure,
such
as
transportation,
banking,
insurance,
trading,
the
professions
and
public
service.
The
more
the
people
of
a
country
favor
their
own
producers,
thus
giving
the
latter
all
the
incentive
necessary
to
increase
the
volume
and
broaden
the
scope
of
their
production,
the
more
abundant
will
be
the
immediate
opportunities
they
create
for
themselves,
and
the
future
opportunities
they
create
for
their
children
If
in
the
past
opportunity
has
not
been
as
abundant
in
Canada
as
ft
has
been
elsewhere,
it
is
because
Canadian
producers
as
a
class
hnve
not
been
as
successful
as
producers
elsewhere
have
keen.
And
the
chief
reason
our
producers
have
been
less
successful
is
because
they
have
failed
to
receive
from
Canadian
citizens
generally
the
same
loyal
support
that
the
producers
in
certain
other
countries
have
received
from
their
cititens.
Some
of
these
countries
import
practically
nothing
that
they
are
capable
of
producing
for
themselves.
But
we
Canadians
are
so
careless
about
our
daily
buying,
so
thoughtless
ot
the
welfare
of
our
producett.
so
shortsighted
about
keeping
tho
door
ot
opportunity
open
for
our
sons
and
daughters,
that
every
working
day
we
allow
ourselves
to

that

Why
not
let
us
all
