Canadian Threat Urges Reciprocity With United States
John Charlton, Canadian parliament member and U S British joint commission member, spoke at the Boston Chamber of Commerce on reciprocity with Canada. He argued U S tariff liberalization would push Canadian tariffs down, while absolute free trade remains unattainable, and noted two key questions: reciprocity with the U S and Britain’s colonial trade preferences, with reciprocity offering greater gains to Canada than Britain’s proposed preference. He concluded that reciprocity would mostly affect natural products and could shape Canada’s future choice between closer U S relations or joining a broader imperial trade bloc.
