HC Deb 09 March 1911 vol 22 c1395
Sir CLEMENT KINLOCH-COOKE

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he could inform the House the number of immigrants entering Canada from the United States in 1910, and how many were granted homesteads of 160 acres each; how many immigrants entered Canada from the United Kingdom in 1910, and how many were granted homesteads of 160 acres each; and how many immigrants entered Canada from the Continental countries of Europe during 1910, and how many of these were granted homesteads of 160 acres each?

Mr. HARCOURT

The immigrants from the United States to Canada in the months April to October, 1910, numbered 85,563, and those from the United Kingdom for the same period 90,740. I would suggest that the hon. Member should refer to the office of the High Commissioner for Canada in London for the other figures, which are not on record at the Colonial Office.
