Canada and the States in a Historic Perspective
The piece recalls a past Canadian debate on imperial destiny versus closer ties to the United States. It praises Sir John A. Macdonalds National Policy, frames Canada’s westward expansion via the Canadian Pacific Railway, and argues Canadians now largely reject linking fortunes with the United States while critiquing U.S. wartime conduct and policy. The author endorses Canada pursuing its own imperial path independent of American influence.
