B. K. SANDWELL ADDRESSES
SEAFORTH LECTURE CLUB
lOn '.Friday last the Seaforth (Lect-
ure 'Clu'b had the privilege of hearing
B. K, Sandwell, editor of Saturday
Night, discuss the problem, "To
What Are We Loyal—INlationalism or
Provincialism." Mr. Sandwell gave a
historical survey of the British North
America Act and the intention of the
Fathers of Confederation that th.e fed-
eral parliament should be supreme in
order that the nation should attain the
greatest possible unity. Unfortunately
the courts, particularly the Privy
Council,' the court of last resort, had
misinterpreted the act and by a long
series of decisions had lessened the
powers of the federal .parliament and
had increased thepowers of ,the nine
provinces. This has resulted' in dis-
unity in .the Dominion, It has made
social and industrial standards 61 leg-
islation almost impossible because
there must he unanimity in the prov-
inces before such 'legislation is work-
able. Such a consensus is difficult if
not impossible to attainin most cases.
The Dominion under the present state
of the law cannot even implement the
treaties which it makes with foreign
countries without obtaining the 'unan-
imous consent of the provinces.
The speaker urged an amendment to
the British North America Act to
make certain the power of the 'Dom-
inion Parliament. IHe' stated that the
matter was non-political and should in
the interest of the nation have the sup_
port of everyone without regard to
political affiliations. The alternative
was the drifting away of the prov-
inces into self contained ,units and the
gradual disintegration of the Domin-
ion.
I'he speaker was introduced by Mr.
J, G. Mullen and after the cempietion
of his address .21r, Elmer Bell express-
ed the thanks of the audience for the
able manner with which the speaker
'dealt with a subject of extreme na.
tional importance and promised that
