“We do not think that a. policy

which has prevailed whereby cer- tain provinces in financial distress from time to time have been aided to a limited extent by the Dom- inion. should be deliberately adopt- ed as a rule of action generally.... To do so would inevitably lead to conditions harmful and dangerous in the extreme to both the Dom- inlcn and the provinces themselves." -mllivrlw rvocrt on "neon need" claim of Maritimes.

“From early days one first re-

quislte to granting additional aid by the Dominion to a province was proof of fiscal need arising from causes for which the province was not responsible."-Chlei' Justice Mathieson supporting "fiscal need." l O 1

The number of arrested

was reported to be in the hundreds and all of them were shipped to concentra- tion camps. The agency said no political or any other charge was made against any one of them, except the fact they had rczicle.. abroad
