"The calamities of the
Maritimes have always been casually passed along as acts of God, over which governments have no responsibility; while apparently, from the official point of view, Divinity does not operate in other sectors of Canada." - J. J. Hayes Doone, March 26, 1952 p.97 "Senate of Canada Debates" (quoted on p. 567 in the "Dictionary of Canadian Quotations")References
