The result would be such that not even a single resident of Canada no matter of whoa nationality, would be pleased with it. Get out of your head that this is not our war. TIE `taermany should win, it would men we .mould pay a heay'y indemnity which would make our municipal and war taxes look like trifles. Canada would be- come a German, colony, not governed by ourselves, but by Germany. Ger man laws and German customs would be enforced at the pohit, of the bay- onet. German would be the official language of the country' We would have moo bilingual problem to .perplex politicians for German would be the official language of parlianvents, courts and schools. We would have a tary countryon the German system Enforced services in the army would be the rulehere as; xry Germany!.- We would have a military autocracy here, as in Germany, elf -wemet an officer on the street we would have to salute hili, humbly; And If we met three of them walking abreast we would have to •get off iinto, the ditch as they passed by. And of our women met them they would have tel do the same and be thankful if they did not .neet the' fate of Belgium women And ;,do no, think that the United States would. prevent it 'They ,would be kept posy helping themselves.` Germany's vrc- tory would mean for Canadians the los:'3 o; money, property, self-respect, slf-go'ilernrment, our institutions, our laws', our customs.
