It contrasted to the "bicker-| ing, the conflicts, the fears, the} suspicions of small-minded men which frustrate our progress and would diminish our national destiny," needed to make Canada one strong, cohesive nation. He called for a federal gov- ernment strong enough to dis- charge its obligations to all Ca- nadians and all parts of Can- ada. It would act without fear or favor, and with the fullest co-operation of other levels of government who have their own obligations and also require the means to discharge them.
