outstanding features of Municipal,Provincial,andFederal Government in Canada during the past twentyof Government Ownership and Operationof the basic public services.  \nThe people of Canada,through their respective Municipal,Provincial,and Federal Governments,have evidenced a faith,supported by a strong conviction,in the principle of collectiveownership as distinguished from private or corporate ownership,of some of the most important public services.This position,however,has not been reached without very careful considerationof the nation's experience with private corporations.It can safelybe stated,without fear of contradiction,that the failure of privatecorporations to render service satisfactory to the people has contri-buted in no small degree in the conversion of the citizens to theprinciple of\"Government Ownership.\"On the other hand,thefact must be emphasised that Canada has been exceedingly fortunatein having accomplished results through its great Government-ownedenterprises which could never have been accomplished by privatecorporations.This fact will be made all the more evident by asurvey of the success attending the administration of many of theimportant public services.  \n## PUBLIC SERVICES A NECESSITY.\n\nThe acceptance of the theory underlying the principle ofGovernment Ownership has influenced thousands of the people ofCanada to give their sympathetic support to any movement in thedirection of Government Ownership.This attitude on the part ofmany of the people is owing to the successful experiments in munici-pal ownership in Great Britain and other European countries,andthe success of the Government-owned enterprises of New Zealandand Australia.Organisedlabour,throughits industrial and politicalunits,has never failed to champion the cause of Government Owner-ship,even long before other groups of citizens were giving theirsympathetic support to the principle.But apart from the resultswhich have accrued from years of educational work among themasses of the people,the necessity of Governments functioning inthe interests of the people by assuming ownership and operation ofall the great public services has been urged for more direct and urgentreasons.This had been particularly so in Canada,where the satisfy-ing of commercial,industrial,and financial ambitions has made theabandonment of private ownership and operation of public servicesa necessity.  \n1  \n## NATIONALISED RAILWAYS.\n\nFrom the Federal point of view the nationalisation of railwaysis regarded as the most outstanding departure from the principle ofprivate or corporate ownership,and acceptance of the principle ofGovernment Ownership.Even before the Federal Governmentinaugurated its policy of a great nationalised trans-continentalrailway system,the Inter-colonial Railway,built as a condition ofconfederation and completed in 1876,and the Prince Edward IslandRailway,opened in April,1875,have since their construction beenowned and operated by the Dominion Government.In 1903 theDominion Government undertook the construction of the EasternDivision of the National Trans-continental Railway from Moncton,  \nN.B.,to Winnipeg,to be leased to the Grand Trunk Pacific RailwayCompany,for a period of fft","cbCaia76eLcrBS9e","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaia76eLcrBS9e","pdf",1127082,18,"English","# Canada’s
