In 1939 exports to countries in the Pacific area amounted to more than $90,000,000 or about 9.8 per cent of Canada's export trade. Imports from countries in the Pacific area were about $56,700,000 which were about 7.G per cent of Canadian imports for the year. This Pacific trade and Dotential future trade were more important than the actual figures and percentages indicate. In many industries the commodities exported represented the difference between maintaining volume production dislocation of the industry. Many of the imports were essential bommodities, key raw materials whose importance was disappropriate to their monetory value; In spite of research achievements and development of new and substitute matrials access to these former im ports will still be vital to Canadian post-war in dustrv. ... Even more important are the new perspectives' 4 opening for external trade in the Pacific area. New ; i iii ri i t t 1 I worm relations 01 me soviet union are recognizeu as offering opportunities for trade especially between Canada and Russian Asia. According to observers, long dormant Siberia is coming to life and its development and exploitation will require many products which Canada can supply. The recovery and rehabilitation of China and her development to a position justified by her size, population and resources, mean an expanding opportunity for Canadian trade. In both of thtse immense areas Canada's war-developed heavy industries may find an opportunity for survival by meeting their expanding needs. Maintenance of Canada's position as fifth trad ing nation in the pre-war world (fourth in exports and eighth in imports) is of vital interest to every individual and group in the country. Geared to an even higher rate of industrial production our exter nal trade is the key to post-war prosperity. To Brit ish Columbia with its expanded population, industrial plant capacity and vast shipping facilities the post-war Pacific trade is the difference between depression or healthy growth. Though not as generally recognized it may be a determining factor in the post-war prosperity of every man, woman and child in Canada, This is the bread and butter and cash in the pocket reality behind the question of Canada's policy in the Pacific discussed by Norman M. MacLeod, press correspondent, in a recent story from Ottawa. The story deals with the uncertainty about Canada's participation in military and naval operations against Japan. Canada's intention to have R.C.A.F. squadrons act in the Asiatic-Pacific area as a Canadian organization was announced some months ago by the Hon. C. G. Power. Other intensive preparations to have Canada play a major role in the Pacific war, made by Canadian authorities, include huge dock facilities, large air port developments and construction and development of a great naval base at Naidon, near Victoria. The United States, while recognizing interests of Great Britain and Australia seem to regard the " war against Japan as primarily an American show and are apparently not anxious for Canadian participation. Canaddian authorities, reports Mr. MacLeod, are in a difficult situation to work out Canadian policy. This stems, to some extent, from lack of ). a recognized definate Canadian policy in the Pacific before the war. It was based on indifference of Canadians in general to Pacific problems. In face of the urgent importance of, immediate and potential, of our post-war relations wtih other Pacific powers it is an indifference which cannot continue.
