Free grass for settlers and timber of 100 Acres. We leave it as you gave it to the settlers, only the pine for the lumberman, and sixty-feet on shoren Navigation Rights, if you are on the boat.

It’s free travelling all over Canada, anyplace you go. If you want a house in Canada, you go to the Superintendent, put in your order and he will see that it is built. It will cost you nothing, they will pay for it. I will put a Warden in, to mind your game wherever your animal will make its tracks in Canada you can follow it until you get it. If the whites want your animal they will have to pay for it with a license.
