But we will always pursue that goal.

The force from which the sun draws its power has been loosed.

A single nuclear weapon can kill more than 526,000.

Welcome to the United States, Mr. Prime Minister.

This continent is a richer and freer place for that respect.

This trip to Vancouver is the first that I have taken outside of my own country since I became President last November.

We have achieved this partnership because we respect our differences.

I proclaim this treaty.

Here is that spirit of adventure and excitement-of building a nation--which is part of the West which is my home also.

There is hereby reserved the right to modify or terminate any or all of the provisions of this order.

The responsibility for the control of U.S. nuclear weapons rests solely with the President.

The treaty we proclaim will lay a new foundation of prosperity for Canadians and Americans, for your West and for ours.

Each of the great conflicts of this century has begun when nations wrongly thought others would shrink before their might.

Your Prime Minister has said that 'the great purpose of international statesmanship today must be to... make possible a better life for all.'

Mr. Prime Minister, Mr. Premier, I want to thank you for your generous welcome.

We have worked consistently to bring nuclear weapons under careful control, and to lessen the danger of nuclear conflict.

I believe that future generations will have cause for gratitude that two great democracies--Canada and the United States--shared the most generous continent which God has ever granted to man.

We can never forget that the rich soil of American freedom has been washed with Canadian blood, shed in a common effort against foreign enemies.
