Mr. MacINNIS:

The reading of this petition would make my question more clear, but I will put my question as best I can. The fact is that according to the petitioners Canadian grain is being shipped from one Canadian port to another in American ships, and the petitioners' are asking what steps the government intend to take, by order in council or otherwise, to remedy this situation. As a result, American ships are carrying our grain while Canadian ships and Canadian seamen are idle.
