Sifton Defends Interior Policy in Western Land Debate
Ottawa May 1. Clifford Sifton, ex minister and key defender of the Conservative interior policy, delivers a lengthy speech defending land grants and rail land deals. He cites the Saskatchewan Valley Land Company contract and contrasts Liberal and Conservative outcomes, arguing the west benefited from his era and criticizing opposition attacks. The debate centers on land sales, secrecy, and immigration policy with emphasis on settler outcomes.
