Sovereignty of Canada over all ter-
ritory within her borders should not
be jeopardized, Premier Ferguson in-
formed the Legislature this week 'n
again declaring his stand on the deep
waterways question and the develop-
ment of tine St, Lawrence River,
"Everyone knows where t -stand on
the question of deepening and widen-
ingtlte St. La'wren'ce," stated the Pre-
mier, "We should not allow any
country to have control of any part
of the sovereignty of ' this country.
'We have sovereignty over our canal
system now. Let us retain it,
The Premier's pronouncement fol-
lowed the suggestion from Progres-
sive benches that he had mot declared
his position on the issue.
.The Premier pointed out that if the
wa'ter'ways 'were developed jointly; by,
the United States and Canada, as" has
been suggested, and the United States
given control' of part of the canal sys-
tem, it might result in Canada being
deprived o•f the right to use the canals
in tate event of t'var between the [In -
ger] States and any other power.
