Is Canayva Right A Sensible Review Of Adams Seizure
The Montreal Herald argues Canada may not punish U S citizens for buying bait in itself a commercial act not fishing and questions enforcing the 1818 convention. It notes decades of freer trade and warns of international conflict if Canada blocks transit or sale of bait to Boston or Eastport.
United States Fishing Rights and Three Mile Limit Debate
The speaker argues that the 1818 policy sought only to secure domestic fishing rights by extending exclusive possession to the three mile limit. He says the aim was not to hinder commerce or broader trade relations, nor to attack any industry, but to prevent U S fishermen from fishing in British waters and to protect British fishermen within the limit. He warns against extending the policy to bar all commercial transactions with U S fishermen, calling such a move unjustified in modern commercial practice and national duty.
