However I may fall short of that measure, there are perhaps some observations that L hope you may find helpful. I think that. if 1 could enjoy the re: sponsibility of endeavoring to mould public epinion through the weekly newspaper, 1 would devote much thinking. reading and writing in the direction of betterâ€" mutual! underâ€" standing among Canadian citizens Having travelled this country from coast to coast. not once but many Dear Editor times and having had perhaps an exceptional opportunity to observe and appraise what the average Canâ€" adian citizen says and thinks. ! would say that our great lack in Canâ€" ada is breadth and tolerance. This is due in a larze measure to the vastâ€" ness of the country and its miserably inadequate population There are fine people with splenâ€" did qualities living in the Maritimes but they talk everlasting of Upper Canada and Maritime rights, There are â€" splendid _ Canadian | citizens, French in languaz« and Catholic in religion, but they talk everlastingly of Canada for Canadtans and seem bent on ervctin« some kind of Chiâ€" nese wail around their Province which will keep vforeigners" out for all time Here in Ontario. Canada‘s Gardan} Frovince. there are some splendid. people but we have a terrible tenâ€" dency towards smuzness and (~nm-i placency. Out West I know them: because 1 lived in British Columbia fourteen and in Alberta four years and I could go on and describe and try to analyze the qualities of our people but that is not what you are looking for. What I am trying to sary here is thiss we are all living in difficult times; the great majority of us feel socially insecure and. be cause we are ruled by the fear comâ€" plex. we think of and act toward our neighhors with suspicion, disâ€" trust and sometimes jealousy. Many of our politicians, interested only in votes and the power that votes may secure for them, unseruâ€" | pulously exploit class consciousness, town _ against _ country. r-oumry‘ against town, rich against poor, Proâ€" testant against Catholic. Gentile against Jew We have the Native Sons of Canâ€" adaand the Sans of Englandâ€"all of them, in my humble opinion, muâ€" tually exclusive. destructive rather than constructive in their outlook, tending to divide us into opposing camps. exploiting our religious preâ€" judices or our economic fears, poiâ€" soning our minds and embittering our daily relationships.
