CANADA’S POLICY
DEBATE IN THE HOUSE. , LONDON, February 8. A message from Ottawa says that Mr It. L. Borden, the Premier, has decided that the naval question has now been fully debated, leaving the Opposition to decide whether it will continue the debate indefinitely, in order to compel the Premier to dissolve the House. Mr R. Macdonald attacked the Premier’s decision, saying that there was a great principle at stake. He asked did Mr Borden pretend to know more of naval matters than Lord Beresford or even Mr A. Fisher, the Commonwealth Premier. Instead of doing her duty as the Australians did, Canada proposed to give up, her status as a nation of the Empire and become subservient.
