June 9, 1925
Mr. LOVETT:
I am not able to say what was done before, but I know that this subsidy is to give the people a much needed service.
June 9, 1925
Mr. LOVETT:
This boat plies between
Weymouth, Freeport, Westport, Tiverton, Little River, New Edinburgh, Plympton, and many other places where there is no rail connection. It is a very small subsidy. This boat is not making any money; the contractors just about broke even last year.

Mr. LOVETT:
II was paired with the hon. member for Charlotte (Mr. Grimmer). Had I voted, I would have voted against the amendment.
iMr. GORDON: I was paired with the hon member for Centre Toronto (Mr. Bristol) Had I voted, I would have voted against the amendment.
Subtopic: QUEBEC HARBOUR COMMISSIONERS
June 9, 1925
Mr. LOVETT:
The vote for $3,500 is in
my constituency; the vote for $5,000 is in the constituency of the member for Kings, N.S. (Mr. Robinson). I know that $3,500 is the subsidy for the service in my constituency, and it has been the same for a long time.
June 9, 1925
Mr. LOVETT:
I think I can explain the
apparent difference. There was one boat in 1921-22, and afterwards another boat was put on and $8,500 was the subsidy given both boats.
