William Lyon Mackenzie King (Prime Minister; Secretary of State for External Affairs; President of the Privy Council)
Liberal
Mr. MACKENZIE KING:
I should think that an arrangement would be in the nature of a commitment and, I repeat, there is no commitment. I have not the least doubt that there has been an exchange of information between the authorities in the United States and the authorities in Canada with respect to matters of common concern; in any event, that would be most desirable; but beyond exchange of information on matters of common concern I think I can assure my hon. friend that there has been nothing that could have the semblance of a commitment of any kind.
