Synopsis

Excerpt from The Hon. Mr. Merritt and the Quebec Board of Trade: Or the St. Lawrence

In all to £49 12 3 against the St. Lawrence a difference which the Council conceive ought not to exist, and the causes of which it is their duty to ascertain and point out with a w to equalization. With private charges the Council would avoid interference, believing that open comition must ever regulate these, and that every man has a perfect right to make the most profitable use of his own property, and of his personal labour, but they unhesitatingly state that they think the public charges susceptible of great reduction. They consider the rates of pilotage inward and outward, above and below Quebec, as too high, whether the exigencies of the trade are looked at, or the capacity, social position or edu cation of the recipient pilots. These men, it IS conceived, would not be underpaid, were a reduc tion established of one third on the existing rates.
