"Outcome of the Treaty: The Reciprocity Agreement itself, though negotiated and passed by the U.S. Congress in 1911, was ultimately rejected by Canadian voters in the September 1911 general election, leading to the defeat of the incumbent Liberal government. Therefore, by 1912, the agreement was a moot point, but the diplomatic fallout and discussions about the ambassador's role continued." online reference, accessed 01/26.
