"One Small Nation"
Canada's Prime Minister William Lyon Mackenzie King has no more articulate supporter for his foreign policies than George V. Ferguson, executive editor of the Winnipeg Free Press. In London with visiting Canadian newsmen, Editor Ferguson spoke bluntly via the BBC to Britons:
". . . It is very difficult for Canada to fall in with plans and ambitions for what is called a common imperial foreign policy.
"Canada is simply one more small nation in a world dominated by the great powers. And we know that our future safety lies ultimately not inside any imperial orbit, not inside any American sphere of influence. It lies in the creation of a larger system of international law & order inside which the special ambitions and policies of even the greatest powers can be worked out. not in opposition to but in collaboration with all our neighbors."
