Baron Rodney urges cross country farming colonies in Canada
Baron Rodney told the British Marne League last night of a plan for Great Britain and Canada to cooperate in establishing small British farming colonies in Consols on Canadian land from 1 000 to 5 000 acres. Committees would sponsor settlements with managers, land held in perpetuity, and settlers farming on a proportional basis until they could buy farms. Rodneys plan envisions a government loan to settlers for initial purchase, while addressing concerns about child welfare in foster or training schools. Ottawa reports immigration officials unavailable for comment and Canada not currently backing colonization schemes.
