London Interview Stirs Canada Unity on Tariffs
Sir Charles Tupper, on a voyage from Liverpool, said Canada stands united with Mr. Chamberlain and supports a two shilling per quarter grain duty to curb emigration and aid farmers. He noted Americans flocking to the Northwest won’t Americanize Canada, preferring Canadian institutions. Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman attacked Chamberlain’s figures, defending protection and condemning retaliation as a false path that would harden tariff walls. The Liberal leader argued Britain should abandon bluff and resist protectionist moves.
