" To the British colonist the attitude of the Frcnsh-Ca- Radian during the war has been inexplicable!. The mass ;;of the French-Canadians are. opposed to conscription. So bitterly are they opposed to it that threats of armed and organized resistance have been freely made by street Speakers in Montreal. ' i The Nationalists element in French-Canadian politics, led by Henri Bourassa, the brilliant publisist and editor of jjLe Devoir, a Montreal daily, not only oppose conscription ut frankly advocate a policy of the withdrawal of Can lida from continued. active participation in: the war as, a flighting force. They dream of a day when a French rc Ipublic will arise on the shores of the St. Lawrence, within i whose borders the civilization and ideals of the French t Canadian may be logically developed. 1 1 The French-Canadian has had no active connection with f. France for over 150 years. He points out that his associ ation with the mother country then is about as close as the I, Connection between New England and Great Britain. When France broke with the Vatican the republic shat i tered its last live connection with the stronclv Catholic inhabitants of Quebec. Likewise he has no blood relation ship with Great Britain. The call of motherland, that brought thousands of boys with British blood in their Veins, thrilling to the recruiting stands, left him cold. ' He is primarily a Canadian of Quebec. His interests are first with his province. Living intensively he does not recognize or acknowledge the propriety of any de mand upon him for personal participation in the conflict.

"An increase in our war expense "will spell national bankruptcy and threaten the economic life of the nation and eventually its independence. Conscription means strife and disunion in Canada, tl will hurt the cause of the Allies to a greater extent than it will help." "If the United States does as much as Canada has done in proportion to our wealth and population, they will have to raise an army .of 6,000,000 men." . , . .- The French-Canadian points out that the British colo nist is not enlisting as a Canadian but as Britisher. The French-Canadian regards himself as the only simon purel Canadian. "Conscription," declared Bourassa recently, "may mean a second Mexico north of the 45th and 49th parallels."
