Quebec Report, justice could never be done tous. This is the decided opinion of the people as-a body, generally speaking. and through a mijocity of their parliamentary re-

ntatives they have already declared, and will now again declare, that the Quebec 3¢heme of Cortederation will never be acceded to by them: That they are most decidedly op- posed to a Union with Coaida upon any terms, we know with eertainty, and their decided objection to it, or ratber rejec- tion of it, as affirmed by a-majority of their representatives i7 this House, last Sesion. it is now our duty to re-aflirm, We must all admit that Nova Scotia and New Brunswick mast be the best judges of their own affairs, and have a constitutional right to decide concerning them for them- elves, Bat, when we sce it asserted in their papers that if

a Union, on the basis of the Quebee Scheme, take plate at)

ail, it must include Prince Edward Island; and, further, whilst admitiing that possibly, if we exertcd ourselves to procure them, better terms might be conceded to us, main- taining that we shall not be allowed to stand aloof; it be- hoves us most distinet!y and peremptorily to declare that we will not go into the projected Union on any terms. If we were to admit that such terms could be conceded us as would make our union with the other Provinces beneficial to us, that would go a long way towards warranting an as- sumption on the part of the other Provinces, and even on that of tha Home Government, that, by a little skilful management on their part, and the promise of one or two flattering concessions, we might be induced to give a favor- able ear to the Scheme; and, as re-pects proceedings on our part, the next step might be the appointment of delegates to the London Conference. And, that step once taken, our delegates would be in the tiands of the other delegates; the majority would decide ; we could neither insist upon better terms, nor cou'd we fal! back upon our original resolution to reject the scheme. We would be completely trapped, and our heads drawn into ‘the noose. Our best course, therefore, will be vot to admit the possibility of such terms being accorded to us as would be acceptable and conducive to our iaterests. The first Resolution repudiates the idea that we can he embraced in any Union of the Provinces, upon the terms of the Quebec Scheme, in any way which would be beneficial or advantagéous to us. The second is stronger; and one hon. member (Mr. Sinclair.) has said that it is too strong. But it only says that this House cao not admit that a Federe? Union of the North American Provinces and Coloxies, which would inclule Privee Edward Island, could never be aecomplishe] on terms that would prove | to the interests and well-being of ber people ; and assigns a reason for that oflicmation; but it does wot say that; if Great Britain and the other Provinces would agree to it, a Legislative Union, which would allow us to retain cur Revenue might not be made acceptable to us. It hae been said that if Prince Kdward Island remain ont of the Union, she wil! either be left in a most undesir able isolated position, or be annexed to the United Srates Ag to the perils of isolation, the people, L fee! certain, will be very willieg to enecoun'er them. provided they are left in the enjoyment of all their proSent rights and privileges
