The Detroit Free Press, an ardent advocate of reciproeity, said: 'If Can- ada Is to continue Canada, it must be Canadian, not English," and the same newapaper on July 28, 1911, applauded Sir Wilfrid Laurier as the father ai the reciprocity movement in •Canada, and dismissed the relatiope of Canada to the -United Stats In ,the event ot war' with Germany, °concluding; with this signflicant paragraph: "Canadians will 'Oink twice, of the censequences of meddiLag. in a Euro- • pean quarrel, aod Sir Wilfrid Laurier especially will be the last man to plunge his country into a, needless war on a- Transatlantic matter.
