Mr. W. Ross Thatcher (Moose Jaw):

Mr. Speaker, I should like to direct a question to the Minister of Agriculture, arising out of a report in the last issue of the Financial Post to the effect that the South Saskatchewan irrigation project will be commenced this summer. Can the minister state whether that report is correct, and if so, whether construction work will commence this year?

Member File Biography @ PARLINFO

Right Hon. L. S. St. Laurent (Prime Minister):

There has been some correspondence. I discussed with the Minister of Justice a couple of days ago the question of tabling what we had. I understood from him that he was in telegraphic or telephonic communication with some of the premiers, and that he preferred to have answers from them rather than table only a part. I can assure the hon. member that we are anxious to place that correspondence before the house.
