Synopsis
Excerpt from Essays and Addresses
While many Canadians are not of the same race and do not speak the same language nor are they governed by the same system of law, yet they, too, look upon this nation in the same spirit as their fellow-canadians of British ancestry.

War, open or masked, there is not - there has not been open war for nearly one hundred years; and it is inconceivable that it can ever again be. Blood is thicker than water, and all the waters of the sea or of the Great Lakes cannot wholly sever those whom blood unites.
