The publishing of this leaflet containing such an infamous lie was brought up in the House of Commons by the Right Honourable Sir Wilfrid Laurier.
WHAT DID SIR ROBERT BORDEN SAY IN REPLY
He declared he had not personally seen the leaflet, and claimed that certain Liberal newspapers had within the last eight months accused him of not making any patriotic addresses and that later on when he had delivered certain addresses in the country these same papers had charged him with conducting a political campaign. He did not, however, state that in future he would see that his political office would not circulate leaflets and pamphlets containing such malignant libel and slander.
DID SIR WILFRID LAURIER STUMP QUEBEC AND HOLD ANY MEETINGS? CERTAINLY!
WHERE?
At Sohmer Park, Montreal; at the Reform Club, Montreal; at Quebec City, and whenever there was occasion. More meetings would have been held had more been needed. At one of these meetings at least, a member of the present Government, the Hon. T. Chase Casgrain, Postmaster-General, was present.
Why then all this fabricating? Why then all these lies, if it is not for the express purpose of conveying to the electors of Canada that the Nationalist-Conservative flag-waving party is the loyal party and that the Liberal Party is the disloyal party?
HOW DOES
"BORDEN BACK BRITAIN?"
