of
the
most
far-reaching
importance
DISCUSSION
is
heing
heard
in
Parliament
these
days
during
debate
on
the
bill
to
create
a
department
of
northern
affairs
and
natural
resources.
In
some
respects,
it
is
-almost
as
if
the
north
were
in
the
process
of
being
discovered.
This
note
was
hit
forcibly
by
the
Prime
Minister
himself
who,
describing
an
occasion
when
he
was
consulting
a
large
map
of
North
America
with
a
visiting
delegation,
said:
"I
was
looking
at
the
map
and
it
struck
me
that
Alaska
looked
to
be
larger
than
Ontario.
I
said,
'I'm
not
saying
that
this
map
is
not
accurate
but
it
must
be
drawn
in
such
a
way
as
to
throw
the
northern
portion
out
of
perspective
with
the
rest."
However,
on
checking
it
I
found
to
my
surprise
that
in
fact
Alaska
is
larger
in
area
than
the
whole
of
Ontario.
...
It
is
just
a
trifle
smaller
than
Quebec,
which
reaches
almost
to
the
north
pole.
.
.
.''
The
Prime
Minister
went
on
to
remark
that
the
Northwest
Territories
and
the
Yukon
Territory
constitute
almost
40
per
cent
of
the
total
area
of
Canada.

elementary.
But
the
important
thing
is
that
attention
is
being
turned
in
that
direction,
and
members
who
thought
Edmonton
was
the
northwest
corner
of
Canada
are
being
jolted
with
a
few
astonishing-facts.
An
example
of
this
arose
when
debate
swung
to
the
hydro-electric
potential
of
northern
B.CS
and
the
Yukon.
The
House
was
told
that
hyf
diversion
of
the
Yukon
River,
more
than
five
million
horsepower
could
be
developed,
which
would
be
greater
than
the
productive
capacity
of
the
entire
St..
Lawrence
seaway
and
the
Niagara
River"
together.
Since
the
industrial
growth
of
cities
.
like
Toronto
and
Montreal
was
made
possible
by
the
primary
power
in
eastern
Canada,
the
members
must
have
wondered
what
tremendous
things
might
happen
in
the
north.
So
do
we
all.
It
is
true
that
monumental
problems
exist.
Transportation
services
,
must,
be
developed
somehow,
despite
the
enormous
cost.
There
is
no
established
outlet
to
the
ea
fo
northern-
B.Q.
except
via
Alaska
and,
as
a
supplementary
difficulty,
there
might
then
be
a
question
of
what
international
concessions
should
be
made.
Although
the
government's
present
policy
is
to
make
none,
this
is
a
matter
which
probably
will
need
further-thought.
But
because
the
potentialities
are
truly
there
and
can
serve
a
purpose,
these
problems
will
be
met
and
overcome.
Within
a
few
years
the
whole
world
will
be
taking
notice.
