today lilian leverjdffe march 29th 1867 wheroaa the provinces of canada nova scotia and new brunswick have expressed their desire to be federally united into one dominion under the qrown of the united kingdom of great britain and ireland with a con stitution similar in principle to that of the united kingdom and whereas such a union wouid conduce to the welfare of the prov inces and promote the interests of the british empire and wherea9 on the establishment of the union by authority of parlia ment it is expedient not only that the constitution of the legislative auth ority in the dominion be provided for but also that the nature of the exe cutive government therein be de dared and whereas it is expedient that provision be made for the eventual admission into the union of other parts of british north america be it therefore enacted and declared by the queens most excellent ma jesty by and with the advice and consent of the lords spiritual and temporal and commons in this par liament

intercolonial rail way in nova scotia and new bruns wick is claimed by the people of those provinces as a portion of their allotment on entering confederation and therefore should not be expected to pay its way as a railroad they base their claim on section 145 of the act inasmuch as the province of canada nova scotia and new bruns wick have joined in a declaration thai the construction of the intercolonial is essential to the consolidation of the union of british north america and to the assent thereto of nova scotia and new brunswick and have consequently agreed that proi sion should be made for its immeiiatj on- siruction by the government of can ada no mention is made of opera tion and in consequence the question of rates etc is the subject of ne gotiation british columbia on the
