25 juin 1909 - Premier Debs visits Canada

Description:

Canadian Prime Minister Wilfred Laurier invites American Premier Eugene Debs to visit Canada, the first state visit of the Premier to a non-socialist nation. The ensuing negotiations fully normalize relations between Ottawa and New York, including the vital issue of regulating cross-border trade now that America is socialist. Britain is displeased, but does not prevent the meeting.
