Faith in the Treaty Consul General Phelan Sees Gains

Consul-General W H Phelan at Halifax discusses the fisheries treaty praising its advantages. He argues the accord clarifies fishing rights, exempts vessels from piloting fees, and allows repairs and trading in Canadian ports without harsh seizures. He notes Canadians gain little while the U S benefits, and warns rejection would revert to the 1818 treaty and more troubles for fishermen. He also comments on annexation sentiment, maritime ties, and recent trade figures between the United States and Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.
