immigration to Canada L re-
cognized today as one of the
country'■ greatest if not its greatest
economic asset. Authoritative state-
ments on the subject have been
made to the effect that internal
problems confronting Canadian peo-
ple today can, practically without ex-
ception, be solved by greater popula-
tion. Writing in a recent issue of the
Dalhousie Review, Mr. E. L. Chi-
canot of Montreal special publicity
representative in the Department et
Colonization and Development of the
Canadian Pacific Railway, strikes a
most optimistic note concerning re-
cent immigration to Canada. His
article entitled "The New Immigra-
tion" is one of the most compre-
hensive that has been written on the
subject. Mr. Chicanot, who was in
close touch with the development of
Canadian population during the post-
war period, states that the era of
Cao than immtrration opened up in

the spring of 1921 wan as.atialiy a
new Immigration. • In explanation
he goer on to say:
"The years since the war have
served to bring out a virtual revolu-
tion in nearly every phM. of the
matter, as actually for the flint tine,
.immigration became a public question
received fife thought end •ttentian s.4
deserve' from the people of Canada,
and was realised to be of first national
moment. Immigration to Canada in
the years before the war might
roughly be eompared to a broad
stream pouring into the Dominion and
spreading out uncontrolled in ail
directions.
"The war eoded, and a great
popular influx from Europe was ex-
pected for Canada. It sever took
place, largely because the trend was
discouraged at the outset. Canada—
unlike Australia --then regarded im-
migration as a possible fresh problem
instead of an economic remedy. The
Canadian Pacific Railway which,
in expectation of a heavy post-war
movement, had organized a coloniza-
tion department, most keenly appre-
ciated the change which had come
over conditions in general throughout
the country and the necessity of
taking a different view of immigra-
tion. The days of surging flow had
pared, probably never to return in
the same way and in any case such
an haphazard Inundation was hardly
desirable."
Mr. Chicanot then describes the
great immigration work being carried
out by scores of immigration societies
til Cap -ala which came into I lIt.nee
through the new interest of the
Canadian people in immigration. As
the result of supervision through
these many sodeties the type of im-
migrants to Canadian shores was
greatly improved. "With the various
channels beginning to act", continues
Mr. Chicanot, "each pouring its
trickle of new life blood into.Canada
the railway—equally solicitous as to
keeping these people in the Dominion
after arrival—directed attention to
the other end of the horn. and set
about turning the new popular in-
terest in immigration to practical
account. People actuated not alone
by the national good, but alio by a
pride in their own locality and a
desire tO see it prosper and expand,
had merely to have the means pointed
out to them in order that their
natural sympathy for the newcomer
might take praciical form."
