DAVID SOMERVILLE
A Penetrating
Analysis of
"The Trouble
With Canada"
A new book has just been pub-
lished that is sure to set off a
storm of controversy among
Canada's political and media
elite.
It's entitled The Troublc with
Canada (General Publishing)
and written by a successful
businessman named William
Gairdner. It not only analyzes the
troubles besetting this country
but offers many workable solu-
tions.
In the process, this well writ-
ten and readable book utterly
demolishes many of the myths
that have underpinned the
philosophy of Canada's govern-
ing establishment for the Iasi two
decades. This iconoclastic book
blames Canada's many ills on
big government, the welfare state
and on the erosion of traditional
values.
Gairdner does not pull any
punches. He calls welfare
programmes and foreign aid ex-
pensive and counter-pnx3uctive
ripoffs. he says radical feminists
are engaged in destructive social
engineering and that government
interference is destroying
Canada's health care system.
The Trouble with Canada also
takes a frank, no holds barred
look at some sensitive subjects
such as the policy of multicul-
turalism which he calls un-
natural. elitist and unfair. The
book also paints a depressing
picture of Canada's fiscal situa-
tion. Using graphs and charts to

Don't get me wrong. I like running around
Looking like an unemployed down.
Another new experience was to listen to a song
About a woman with a life that seemed wrong.
I guess the song contained a message which was meaningful.
Personally I just thought it was pitiful.
There's another day I remember very well.
It was the day we put on blindfolds and walked through hell
This was the day cafeteria people got a free show
Of people imitating a snake
That didn't know where to go.
Well, hey, if I may I'm just going to state
That everything has so far been pretty great.
The last thing I'll mention
Will be improvisation
Since it requires, you know, some attention.
Well, here we go.

The fluctuations in our economy are reflected in a
number of activities including travel. While pleasure travel
seems to lag behind econorruc recovery, evidence from re
cent history shows us that business travel moves almost it
parallel with economic conditions. moving down rapidly
when the economy slows and rebounding quickly as tht
economy improves.
Statistics Canada reports that between 1990 and 1984, a
period embracing a recession, business travel decreased by
over 2 million person -trips: a decrease of 23%. As tlx
economy improved, between 1984 and 1989, person -tripe
more than doubled and in ISM business travel stood almost
3D% above the 1980 level. Business travel expenditures aLsi
grew by a whopping 39% between 1996 and 1988 alone.
By the same token, pleasure travel dropped by over 1;
million person -trips between 199D and 1984. Although it
recovered over 3 million person trips by 1988, it was stil
short 3 million trips from the 1980 level - a loss of ^.
The summer season, however, has always beer
associated with vacations and fun times with the summer
peak for pleasure travel accounting for 49% of yearl.k
person -trips. On the other hand, business travel is stead' -
showing a 28% share of yearly business person -trips durir4
the summer months.
Statistics show that the typical overnight busines
traveller is predominantly male (three to one), 25 to 4
years old, with a post secondary education and tends to sta',
away for shorter periods of time than people trayelling or
pleasure while travelling greater distances : almost 200 kr'
more). The longer the trip, the more likely it was beins
made on business.
While airplanes carried almost 30% of overnight busines
travellers in both 1990 and 1968, automobiles carried mor
than twice as many.
Hotels and motels are the only forms of travel accorr
modation to record more person -nights in 1988 than they di
in 1990, accounting for 15% of total person -nights in 1990 an.
rising to 2D% by 1988. Campgrounds and trailer parks show
ed a steady decline until 19%. Although there was
recovery in 1988, their usage was still over 22% below th
1980 level. The Yuppy generation may have shown it
preference: hotel comfort over campground economy.
With market analysts making widespread predictions r
an economic slowdown in the 1990s, $.ravel industry expert
will be keeping a close eye on the business tray

3" in diameter) in bundles no bnger than 4 feet beside your
clear bags.
Please DO NOT include the following:
Tree ambs or stumps greater than 3" in diameter
" Food or kitchen waste ' Arlirrlal droppings
Fruits and vegetables
" Driveway or road sweepings
Wel compost what you can't, and then recycle your clear bags.
Composting this spring, its clearly a good thing for all of us to
do.

HOT SUMMER
Considering the latter
day vagaries of our
climate -blame it on free
trade like everything else -
one cannot presume conti-
nuing hot or even warm
weather for the upcoming
summer. One can though,
anticipate, even salivate
over the hot list of attrac-
tions lined up for The
O'Keefe.
Opening on May 29th will
be the Cole Porter classic
".Anything Goes" starring
Mitzi Gaynor as -wait for it -
Reno Sweeney, the role
originally played by the
redoubtable Ethel Mer-
man.
This will be, we believe,
the first live production of
it in Toronto since Melody
Fair presented it in the ear-
ly fifties. It was an in the
round production at the old
Mutual Street Arena and
starred Iggie Wolfington.
To be honest in recollec-
tion, it wasn't a landmark
accomplishment but we
well recall being thrilled by
the score. And, why not?
One is lucky to have more
than a half dozen or so
melodies in scores by An-
drew Lloyd Webber or
Stephen Sondheim for ex-
ample but Cole Porter
wrote seventeen songs for
Anything Goes. Seventeen!
Among them are 1 Get A
Kick Out Of You, You're
the Top, Easy to Love,
Friendship, It's Delovely,
All Through the Night tour
personal favourite)
Anything Goes, and Blow,
Gabriel, Blow.
Musicals Like Anything
Goes are simply not being
written anymore and one
should jump at the oppor-
tunity to see one when it
comes along. Even a
mediocre cast can make
"Anything Goes" en-
joyable but a cast headed
by the gorgeous Mitzi
Gaynor, who is now clearly
the successor to the late
Vera Ellen, ensures an
evening of sheer theatrical

pleasure.
The run is regrettably
short, eight performances
ending June 3rd, so ticket
demand will be heavy. Get
yours now.
From July 3rd until July
8th. John Davidson stars in
Oklahoma another classic
musical of the American
stage. The score is well
known to all and need not
be mentioned here. What
might not be so well known
however is the fact that
John Davidson is an ex-
cellent singer.
Over the years one has
come to associate Mr. D.
with television talk and
game shows forgetting that
he began his career as a
singer -the New Christie
Minstrels as we recall -and
in fact should be regarded
as a singer who doubles as
a television host rather
than a TV host who sings.
Should be a good show.
From Aug. 7th until Aug.
12th the presentation will
be Andrew Lloyd Webber's
"Jesus Christ. Superstar".
We stand by our earlier in-
timation that Mr. Webber
is not as fine a composer as
were Cole Porter and
Richard Rodgers but his
talent is none the less for-
midable. Jesus Christ
Superstar is one of his
earlier works with Tim
Rice and was considered
quite controversial when
first presented.
It was and remains a
powerful work well deserv-
ing of one's custom.
Fiddler on the Roof will
run from Aug 14th until the
26th and will star Topol as

Scarborough Players has
announced its 1990-91
Subscription Series.
The season will start on
Oct. 4 with the light-
hearted musical "The Boy
Friend", followed by the
hilarious "Cactus Flower'.
in January, the suspense
thriller "Angel Street"
(Gaslight) in March and
the thoughtful and funny
"Butterflies are Free" in
Tevye. There are those who
maintain that he plays the
role better than Zero
Mostel who created it.
We have no intention of
being drawn into the com-
parable merits of each. We
know only that Topol is an
excellent singer performer
and we look forward to see-
ing him in Fiddler on the
Roof.
One wouldn't be surpris-
ed to hear of even more
works being sandwiched in
between those of this
blockbuster quartet but
even if there are not, it's
going to be a great, hot
summer at The O'Keefe.
NIGHTS OUT:
Old buddy Hank Van
Steenwyk sends along word
of Eleganra '90. This is an
evening of fine entertain-
ment being presented in
aid of The Mississauga
Hospital Foundation.
To be held in the Galaxy
Ballroom of the Constella-
tion Hotel of fine food will
be complemented by the
entertainment talents of
Henry Cuesta and his or-
chestra, vocalist Enzo
Gusman, pianist John Ar-
pin, songstress Janice
Regan, Tim Allan and Dr.
McJazz better known
perhaps as Mississauga
Hospital's Dr. Mike
Walmsley.
Master of Ceremonies
will be Jim Paulson who
just keeps getting better all
the time. We consider his
speaking voice to be one of
the best on radio. Certainly
it's the most underrated.
We're a little late with
the advice of Ek%anza '90
because of the press of
other commitments. The
event takes place tomor-
row evening and so tickets
might now be scarce but
you can try calling Peggy
Clark at 568-1451 or the
Hospital Foundation at
848-7575.
Champagne reception is
at 6:30 and dinner begins at
7:30. Oh, and one of the
door prizes is a Cruise for
Two in the Caribbean.
Good luck.
Award shows are very
definitely now big business
but it wasn't always so.
Time was when awards
presentations were for en-
trants and well wishers on-
ly.
This is still the case with
the Big Country Awards as
presented by RPM
Magazine, the bible of the
Canadian recording in-
dustry.
At The Big Country
Awards there is no enter-
tainment. There is a recep-
tion, dinner and award
presentations made after
dinner.
The event is designed as
an industry get together
and is a good opportunity
for the movers and shakers
to get together socially.
Great people watching too.
This year's presentation
Announce
June.
Every show will run
three consecutive
weekends with extra Sun-
day matinees for "The Boy
Friend".
Subscriptions are new
available through the box
office at a cost of xis for the
4 -show series. Single
tickets for each individual
show are now available as
will be on Sun. May 27th in
the Park Ballroom at The
Inn on the Park. Cocktails
are at 7 p.m. and dinner at
S. Dress is to be elegant but
not black tie. Some tickets
are available for well
wisher•s and friends but
there most definitely will
be no door admission.
Tickets are $100 but that
cost is all inclusive. There
are no extra costs for park-
ing. coat checking, dinner
wine or tips. Bit of a
bargoon actually.
Contact RPM before May
25th for tickets. Shall we
see you there?
AFTERNOON
DELIGHTS:
This Sunday's Classical
Cabaret features Odette
BeauprE, Janet MacEwen
and Ricardo Keens -
Douglas who is being billed
as a performer presenting
"a newly relevant and
meaningful artform-
singing with a difference".
Yeah, and he's a great
hoofer too as we recall with
Pleasure after having seen
him in the Limelight Din-
ner Theatre production of
Sophisticated Ladies.
Perhaps some will recall
the marvellous choir that
accompanied Rita MacNeil
at last year's Juno Awards.
The choir is called The Men
of the Deeps and is com-
prised of working and
retired coal miners of Cape
Breton Island, Nova Scotia.
They are appearing this
Sunday afternoon at
Massey Hall. Classical
Cabaret at the George Ig-
natieff Theatre starts at 3
P.m. The Men of the Deeps
concert begins at 2 p.m.
Make your choice.

Catch, A Major League
Life by Erne Whitt with
Greg Cable is now
available in soft cover
through Fawcett/Crest.
Although Ernie is no longer
with the Blue Jays it's pret-
ty well understood that he
will return when his play-
ing days are over. Till then
we suggest that his fans
will enjoy this casual,
almost off hand story of his
baseball life.
We found particular en-
joyment in seeing the
names of early Blue Jay
players some of whom we
had almost. forgotten.
Nice, too, to realize that
Ernie Whitt is a man who
loves what he does for a liv-
ing, surely some kind of a
blessing for any man.
Catch is probably not big
league reading but it's
great fun, Catch it.

Separate School Board Sets Mill Rate
The Metro Separate
School board set new
residential and commer-
cial mill rates for the calen-
dar year at a special
meeting held Apr. 24th. The
average mill rate increase
for the six municipalities
-within Metro Toronto is
9.5%, well below the in-
crease applied in 1989.
The $651 million budget
of the MSSB, the largest
school board in Canada,
was approved for pro-
grams that serve in excess
of 102,000 students in 228
schools.
"I am pleased that all
educational programs of-
fered to our students in
both elementary and secow
dary schools will remain
for 1990 " said Dr. An -
"I am concerned that
some of the maintenance
items for both school
facilities and academic
programs must be
delayed," said Barone.

stating that it was commit-
ted to fund education at a 60
percent level and to date its
share has not exceeded 47
percent," he said.
"The government in-
creased the grants to our
school board by 4 percent
and at the same time man-
dated pay equity and a
payroll health tax that will
cost the board an addi-
tional $8 million," said
Clune.
Bill 64, which was ap-
proved by the Province last
fall, provides separate
school boards with access
to some corporate assess-
ment. The net $4 million
that the board will receive
from corporate assessment
offers little financial relief,
said Clune. "The monies
have not created an
equitable situation that will
help us deal with the $20
million deficit from 1969.
This deficit must be ab-
sorbed in subsequent
years. "
More than 500 parents,
teachers and staff attended
the eight-hour meeting.
"All trustees in our board
found it extremely difficult
to establish the 1990
budget," said Clune. "We
listened to the concerns ex-
pressed by our ratepayers
and acted responsibly to
strike a balance between
the needs of students and
higher taxes. Working
together our communities
will enhance our excellent
school system," he added.
YOU COULD EARN UP TO
$4800 In 24 Hours!
Can you picture yourself making at least
555000 "rs a week, every week? If you
can, l urge you to read this article, it could
be worth thousands of dollars to vou!
My name is Mark Preston. I am 32 years
old and a self made millionaire. A few
years ago I discovered a money making
method that changed rm life forever. This
is not just another "get rich quick scheme.-
This
cheme-This is a unique rtew• system that is in
demand everywhere, yet few people even
know it exists.
Anyone can do it. Trust me. If you want
to make money, this system is' for you.
When I first started this money making
program, I was flat broke and at least
$10,000 dollars in debt. My family thought
1 was crazy and said 1 should be out look-
ing for a "real job." That did not stop me.
I was determined to make it with this fan-
tastic money making plan I had discovered.
I started at home on the kitchen table
with no capital. IM1ithin a year 1 was taking
in over 52"W A WEEK ... MORE THAN
A MILLION DOLLARS A YEAR. You
heard the right, OVER A MILLION
DOLLARS A YEAR I went from driving
an old beat up Pick -Up to a Brand New -
Lincoln Continental. 1 paid for it in cash.
I bought a new home in a prestigious
neighborhood, a waterfront summer cot-
tage, and a Tamnhouse in Florida. I do not
mean to brag, but these are my results us-
ing this amazing money making system.
Do not envy me, join me!
THE SECRET REVEALED
1 kr:..: ten:.. ! h -2d disco•:E..-d Z ,_;C!U-
tionary neva money making program that
would continue to make me thousands of
dollars a day. It seemed so easy. I asked
myself why everybody wasn't rich? Then
it dawned on me that not everyone knew
about this secret method of making
money. You do not need special training
or even a college education for this money
making system to work for you.
Once you have learned how to use it,
your money worries will be over for life.
)'lou will have financial security and peace
of mind. This money making system is
perfectly legal and amazingly simple. It
has nothing to do with real estate, the
stock market, or gambling of any kind.
It does not matter what your financial
situation is now. You can start this money
making program at home in your spare
time with less than $15.00. Ina few short
weeks you will see the cash start to roll
in. Once you put this money making
syswm to work for you, the skvs the limit!
You will have ash to spend on whatever
you want, whenever you want it. Think
of it! Enough cash to foully put an end
to economic It*Mnures forever!

at this point. That just shows you have

Metro Toronto ...
... On A Budget!
by Marilyn Cooper
Last summer, our family
was determined to have a
city vacation - but I was
worried about the budget,
because cities can be so ex-
pensive. Well, we found the
answer in Metropolitan
Toronto! It provided a
perfect getaway, fun for
the children - and with a lit-
tle planning, was very af-
fordable!
Accommodation is pro-
bably the biggest bite out of
the family vacation budget.
We found that bed and
breakfasts were a good
solution. Quaint and com-
fortable, a B & B can pro-
vide a family atmosphere
and very reasonable
prices. The owner is usual-
ly a font of information on
things to see and do, too.
And a B & B is a good way
to meet some interesting
fellow travellers.
Travelling around Toron-
to is safe and inexpensive
with the TTC, the city's
public transit system. We
had little trouble getting
around the subways, and
our kids especially liked
the bright red streetcars
that sail up and down many
of the principal streets.
What to do on a budget? I
enjoyed the fascinating ex-
hibits at the Royal Ontario
Museum, Canada's largest.
The ROM is free on
Tuesdays, and every day
after 4:30. The well-known
Art Gallery of Ontario is
also free on Wednesday
evenings. And "Art at 110 .
Galleries at 80 Spadina", a
collection of twenty art
galleries which feature
both Canadian and Interna-
tional art, offers free ad-
mission from Tuesday to
Saturday.
Our whole family really
loved the Ontario Science
Centre. We spent haus ex-
ploring some fascinating
hands-on exhibits, and it's
not for kids only, although
the talks and displays are
geared for easy understan-
ding. The Science Centre is
free on Friday evenings
and makes for a pleasant
day trip, nestled in a
gorgeous green river
valley.
For something different,
we also dropped into the
Toronto Sculpture Garden,
free of charge every day,
from eight a.m. to dusk;
it's a unique outdoor collec-
tion of artworks, and made
a welcome respite from our
day -long walking excur-
sion.
For complete relaxation,
what could be better than a
stroll through the park?
Metro Toronto has plenty
of green space for picnics
and games. I liked the
treed pathways of High
Park, but our children
preferred the park on
Toronto Island, only a short
ferry ride from downtown.
They particularly enjoyed
the sights and sounds of
Centreville, a small amuse-
ment park on the island.
One place not to be miss-
ed is Harbourfront, a
lWacre waterfront park
filled with free or almost -
free activity for everyone.
Besides a stroll along the
water, you can browse the
renowned Harbourfront
Antique Market, and take
in the performances and
events - including theatre,
dance, crafts, and art -
every day.
My husband and I took
turns with the kids, and, to
no one's surprise, I used
my free time to go shopp-
ing - even if it was only
"window shopping"! The
fashionable Bloor-
Yorkville district was cer-
tainly tempting, packed
with upscale boutiques and
chic little cafes. I also lov-
ed the noise and colour of
Kensington Market, a neat
combination of Portuguese
and West Indian hustle and
bustle. Toronto is also well-
known for its shopping
malls; besides the well-
known Eaton Centre right
downtown, I visited Sher -
way Gardens just west of
the city, and the Woodbine
Centre near the airport.
Both were worth the trip.
This summer, give
yourself a break, without
breaking your budget. Our
family certainly enjoyed
Canada's largest city.
There are wonderful
restaurants, interesting
theatres, and lots to do
anytime of the year. And a
little planning made it one
of the best vacation values
around!

Levin Does

works Rosemary's Baby,
the Boys From Brazil and

An unmarried yuppie
couple buys a trendy condo

pathetic neighbour Morris
lapkcind, a former member

The Spadina Extension: A White Elephant Says Gardner
Norman Gardiner, Metro
Councillor for North York
Centre is concerned that
the proposal by the Provin-
cial Government to extend
the Spadina Subway line
along the existing Hydro
Right of Way to loop with
the Yonge Street line will
create few if any benefits
other than reducing head -
ways along the Yonge-
Spadina line.
By extending the Spadina
transit line northward and
linking it to the Yonge St.
subway line by using the
Hydro Right of Way, the
Provincial Government is
ineffectively spending the
funds which it is allocating
for transit improvements.
Gardner is concerned that
by creating an alignment
along the Hydro Right of
Way, a "White Elephant"
could be created. Instead,
the Spadina line should be
extended further north to
Steeles Ave.
In a previous presenta-
tion and discussion with the
Metropolitan Toronto
Priorities and Policy Com-
mittee, Provincial Deputy
Minister, Gardiner Church
stated that higher density
residential development
would be a requirement in
order to justify and support
any rapid transit line. As it
stands, existing land use
along Dufferin Street is
primarily light industrial,
while residential densities
along the hydro right of
way corridor are insuffi-
cient to justify and support
a rapid transit line in this
area.
In the last few months,
the TTC has reported a
drop in the level of its rider-
ship. In light of these
reductions, an emphasis
should be placed on in-
creasing ridership levels,
and by attracting new
riders to the TTC. The Pro-
vincial Government should
be working with Metro and
the TTC to achieve this
end.
$500 million is too much
to spend for the sake of ad-
ding three more trains to

the system and reducing
overcrowding at peak
hours. By pushing further
northward and looping
across Steeles Ave. the
potential for increased
ridership from existing
higher densities can then
be realized. Higher rider-
ship levels would then
mean lower subsidies for
the TTC.
An Early Warning System
For Metro Pedestrians
Metro Chairman Alan
Tonks and Commissioner
of Transportation Doug
Floyd announced last week
a public education cam-
paign designed to enhance
the awareness of the new
"flashing" style of
pedestrian crossover now
being installed throughout
Metro Toronto.
Dubbed the "Early War-
ning System", the new
style of crossover is being
presented in a unique man-
ner. "In an era of mass
communications we are us-
ing every means possible to
reach pedestrians, cyclists,
and drivers of all ages,"
Chairman Tonks said. "By
reaching as marry people
as possible, the new
"flashing" crossovers will
have an excellent chance of
keeping people safe when
they cross the road."
The Metro Transporta-
tion Department has
enlisted the help of the
Metropolitan Police Force,
including the Auxiliary
Police, the Metro Safety
Council, and all six local
municipalities in Metro for
this public education pro-
gram.
The police will be visiting
all of Metro's 700 public
and separate schools for
their annual Spring Road
Safety lectures. A bicycle

Transportation Commis-
sioner Doug Floyd in the
final stages of "Road
Beautification" on a traffic
island in the Peanut area
(Don Mills Rd. north of
Sheppard Ave.) on Fri.
Apr. 27.
This project
demonstrates what can be
done to enhance
streetscaping on Metro
Roads in keeping with ef-
forts that Metro can under-
take to improve the urban
environment," said Metro
Transportation Committee
Chairman Maureen
Prinsloo. This initiative
was considered as a result
of a request to Councillor
King from members of the
community and Rev.
Albrecht's congregation at
the nearby Advent
Lutheran Church.
Show Of
Hooking
The Ontario Hooking
Craft Guild is holding its
24th annual show of tradi-
tional hand hooked rugs
and wall hangings on Sun.
May 13th from 10 a.m. to 4
p.m. at Victoria Hall,
Queen's University,
Kingston, Ontario frown 11
a.m. to 4 p.m.
Admission is $3 and
children accompanied by
an adult are admitted free.
sponsored each year by
Petro -Canada for distribu-
tion by the police through
the schools, has been
customized to promote the
new style of crossover. in
addition, a special 3-1,2
minute video about the new
crossovers will be shown to
the students. Each student
will receive a badge depic-
ting a flashing crossover
with the slogan "I'm Warn-
ing You" emblazoned on it.
To reach other major
crossover user groups,
representatives of the
Metro Safety Council and
the Auxiliary Police will in-
struct senior citizens and
pre-school children by us-
ing the special video. In ad-
dition, utility and tax bills
will carry a special notice
to all Metro homes. The
video will also be
distributed to all Metro
area cable companies for
airing.
Billboards and Public
Transit Shelters will carry
the "Early Warning
System" message and will
explain the new crossovers
to pedestrians and drivers.
The public education pro-
gram will run through to
the end of June.
By year end, approx-
imately 110 crossovers on
Metro's arterial roads will
have been converted to the
new style of flashing opera-
tion. The remaining 56
crossovers will be con-
verted in 1991. The local
municipalities are under-
taking a simultaneous con-
version program on their
street system over the next
three years.
Recently, the Ministry of
Transportation's North
Metro Boundary Transpor-
tation Review identified
the issue of "the dramatic
growth of households in
York Region", and future
congestion from cross -
boundary trips into
Metropolitan Toronto.
Creating a loop at Metro's
northern boundary would
reduce the number of cross
boundary trips into Metro,
and thus reduce traffic con-
gestion on Metro's streets.
A transit system would
then be in place as an alter-
native to lure traffic and
discourage it from going
further into Metro.
By pushing northward
along Dufferin St. to
Steeles Ave. the alignment
would also avoid going
under the Lord Ross Dam.
The cost of tunnelling
under the dam would then
be avoided, as well as the
associated environmental
costs of constructing
through this area.
All in all, the Provincial
Government should be
spending its monies more
wisely than it is proposing.
By extending the Spadina
and Yonge lines northward
to Steeles Avenue, the Pro-
vincial Government would
be implementing the
preferred and most viable
of transit options which
was recommended by its
consultant Thus, public
transportation in
Metropolitan Toronto
would be more effective -
more people would then be
served, and more people
would use the TTC.

"We believe in the Province of New Brunswick that
Meech Lake has taken on a symbolic importance par-
ticularly in Quebec which goes far beyond its words and
phrases and Meech Lake itself. That symbolic importance
has become so pronounced and so critical to the future of
the Province of Quebec that it has been accepted virtually
without question by us and many Canadians that Meech
Lake should not be touched as it currently is constituted.
And that is why we have proposed this process which does
not subtract from Meech Lake, does not re -open Meech
Lake but which adds to the substantial accomplishment
which the Meech Lake Accord represents."
The above quote came from Frank McKenna, Premier of
the Province of New Brunswick, at the first meeting of the
Special Committee of the House of Commons studying the
companion resolution to the Meech Lake Accord. Although
Premier McKenna believes that there must be amend-
ments added to Meech through a companion resolution, he
assured committee members of his belief that Meech Lake,
as it stands, %rill be a positive step for Canada.
In addition, four constitutional experts appeared before
the committee. These experts were adamant that Meech
must be passed and felt that the political uncertainty that is
being created could drive foreign investors away. They also
praised Premier McKenna for his constructive efforts to
bridge the Meech impasse.
It is my belief that the Meech Lake Constitutional Accord
will strengthen Canada by reinforcing the principles of
federalism. Simultaneously. Meech Lake will open up the
process of Constitutional development, allowing Canada to
remain flexible to future social, technological and political
realities.
However, no Constitution or accord is perfect. The fact
that Mr. Mulroney has called on the government to form a
Special Committee of the House of Commons to study the
companion resolution to the Meech Lake Accord
demonstrates that this government is %filling to be flexible,
even though the original Accord had previously received
approval by all ten provinces.
If you would like a copy of the companion resolution or
Meech Lake itself, please contact my constituency office at
686-%432.
