§ MR. TREVELYAN (Yorkshire, W.R., Elland)To ask the Secretary to the Board of Trade whether the Government of Quebec have recently imposed a tax of 300 dollars on all commercial travellers and advertising agents for firms not having a place of business in Canada; and, if so, whether representations will be made by our Government to have the disadvantage removed.
(Answered by Mr. Secretary Lyttelton.) I have not yet seen the Act of the Quebec Legislature referred to by the hon. Member, but I have asked the Governor-General of Canada to send me a copy of the Act, together with a report of the circumstances in which it was passed.
