the land. Of that amount we paid‘ our full share. That land asa whole became the property of the D1» million. By an Act of the lkderal ?a.‘iament and Government large areas of laud were set apart for educational purposes. For these lands we paid our full share, and have received nothing whatever in return. We were driven in a larg- erydesree. towalds direct taxation than any otherPl-ovlnceOursonl-c as oLrevenus are smaller. , Take the succession duties for instance. 0f these duties, P. E. island rs- ceivss about $14,000 a year-while‘ Nova Seotia receives $136,000, ‘New Brunswick, $164,000; Quebec $3,- 000.000. Ontario " $4,000,000. Mani- toba $800,000, Saskatchewan $300.- 060 and British Columbia 8700.000. In other ways, the other Provinces are to a large extent relieved from direct taxation such as we have to pay. Several lnterprovlncial Con- ferences have from time to time been called. and this government has requested that another Inter- Provlncial Conference shall be held with a view to the readjust ment oi the Provincial Subsidies. l-ie did not wish it to be under- stood ohat he dlslparaged the work of the Fathers o! Confederation. But if Canada is to grow and pros- per, every lProvince must receive falnplay. We cannot but feel that we have not grown and prospererl proportionately to the Central Pro" vinces; and the causes therefore must be removed.
