The five -point outline of Canada's position gives emphasis to the claim that 35c out oi; every •Caned'1an dollar comes from external trade anci,,touch- es all s•eetions-,ef our people. • Our Trade Interests Canadians are portrayed first as im- portant customers. Because of our climate and geography which limits the variety.of our production we will always be customers for a largte num- ber of items of quality gopds at fair prices if we are to•maintgin our stan- dard of living: As producers we will mere and'more require external .markets for ,the sur- lriuses we will always be able to pro- duce as farmers, fishermen, Writhe!, men, miners, and, in some lines, manu- facturers,- Our country i's outlined as a 11111(1: of industrial opportunity, a land of many still undeveloped resources which can be developed, to offer Chore employ- ment and to produce more goods that will further improve our standard of living.

In the. first full years of peace. Canadians supplied 86 per cent of Britain's foreign. requirements of wheat and flour, 73 per cent .of her external supply of bacon and "ham, 116' well, as 45 .per cent of the eggs and 26, , per cent of the ,cheese whir -1 land- ed at British ports (figures ,supplied .by' the Dei5artrent of Trade and Coiu- merce), lmpressiv,e°reasons• for"the interest each, of tis ,has. in world. peace •and world trade., • •••• • • Paralysis and Unrest There is' much interest shotcn in discussions here on the report of• the representative of, one of our leading dailies on the political and economic situation in New Zealand. "It is not,. that material conditions are bad, "•51 - though the North Island is in the throw,s of an electric power famine. The trouble is really spiritual -ea kind of post-war malaise which is getting worse." The general election was held in' November, 1946, and no ses- sion of parliament has yet been call- ed. Strikes' are having a bad effect on the • national morale and national pride is particularly;hurt because of a strike of 200 ratings of the Royal New Zealand Navy. F No one contends that Canada is 'al- -together free from the unrest that pervades the world but some, point to a recent Gallup poll to show that we, have achieved a real measure of con-. fidence 'arid -unity. The poll showed that 61 per !cent of 'our voters do not vant' an. election now.. and' feel that the government.. shourd ,live out its .term. A majority of the voters in all parties concurred, in this indication of some measure of satisfaction: - Twen- ty-one per cent gave no opinion Which perhaps indicates a lack of any major grievance-. Only 18 per Cent wanted an election this year. • Dealers in Disaster, -..To what extent is our economic life threatene'''d by those who continually' foresee disaster? One of Canada's leading business men recently criti- cizer) • very sharply those who -";glory in molting themselves into a slate of gloom and .hysteria" and particularly advised business men to take a con- structive acid progressive 'attitude. Economists all seem to agree that confld;ence is an important factor” in our continuing prosperity and it con- fic1 ice is shaken by unfair and un- justified 'fears,' great harm could be done.
