Mr. MACLEAN (Halifax):
My hon. friend is entirely wrong in saying that very small grain shipments have gone through the port of Halifax. It is true that grain shipments from Halifax have not been large in any one year, but a substantial quantity of grain has gone through that port. There is a difference in the freight rates as between St. John and Halifax of one cent per 100 pounds. I hope, however, this differential will be abolished as it should be. I am instructed that it costs more to move grain from St. John to St. John West where the grain is placed on board steamers than it would cost to move that grain to Halifax.

Mr. MACLEAN (Halifax):
No grain went through the port of Halifax during the war.

Mr. MACLEAN (Halifax):
I am rather at a loss to understand just what the right hon. leader of the Opposition means by the lemarks he has made and the remarks which he has previously made, but which I did not hear. He was criticizing the remarks of another hon. member this evening and suggesting that the hon. member was tired or sleepy, possibly dreaming. This may be the reason of the remarks of my hon. friend iu respect of certain expenditures in the county of Halifax.
