Overseas Settlement Committee Grants Easy Term To Canada Migration
In the commons debate, Under-Secretary Amery said the Overseas Settlement Committee, with Dominion co operation, provided easy terms for ex servicemen to emigrate to Canada. About 18 000 men applied, with 11 000 to 12 000 already sailed or ready to depart, arguing that emigrants to Canada strengthen the empire more than those to less friendly lands. The aim was to place emigration on optimal conditions.
