Churchill: Prime Minister Confers with Canadian Leaders. Arriving from the U.S., the British prime minister looks hale and hearty as he begins a short visit in the Dominion. Canadian Prime Minister Saint Laurent greets the venerable statesman who directs the destiny of the empire. Kind of heartwarming shot of Prime Minister Winston Churchill, with cane in hand, exiting building, turning and doffing his hat to acknowledge the cheering crowd on the streets. Citizens and press photographers greet Churchill as he arrives at Parliament. Wreath laying at memorial to Canada's war dead, then Churchill looks at names of the dead. Narrator speaks of Churchill's role in uniting English-speaking nations for any future conflict.
