The post-war era in Canada has
been featured by a very gratitying ex•
pensionin the trade carried on by the
Dominion with foreign countries, the
value of the 'total volume of trade
transacted having increased in the de-
code between 1914 and 1924 by $822,-
175,439, or more than seventy per Cent.
With this development, and the great.
er bulk of trade corning to and leav-
ing franc Canadian seaports, has come
a corresponding rise in the prestige
of those oceanic outlets of the Do-
minion, and most of the ports of Can-
ada have undergone somewhat of a
revolution and occupy to -day a much
more important place in world con-
