Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Naval Question: Speech Delivered by Mr. R. L. Borden, M. P., 3rd February, 1910
Sir, I have another observation to make. We all did agree, at least I did agree, to the resolution of March, 1909, but every man in this House who since that time has given the slightest consideration to this question will realise that when we talked about the speedy organisation of a Canadian navalunitjof the imperial navy - Muse that is the way I pre fer to express it - we were speaking of something that cannot be brought about in lea than ten, fifteen or twenty years. Why, my right hon. Friend to-day has even a vaguer idea of what he proposes to do than he had in respect of the National Transcontinental railway. I did not like to interrupt him; he was being interrupted a good deal; but there was one question which I should have liked to put to him, and I shall take the liberty of putting it now. He says these vessels are twofibe built in Canada. I would like to know whether they are to bezbuilt in at privatefshipyard or in a government shipyard? Has the government come to any conclmion in regard to that?
