A GOOD OLD CIVIL,' WAR , 'A
What this country needs ' is a isters, dynamiting Vie Soo. locks,
good, five -cent .civil war. It might
relieve some of the pus and ven-
om that seem to be filling Can-
adians these days, and get them
back to the important things of
life, likemaking money, love and
rock gardens. •

Symptonis of the national ' ulcer
are everywhere : the fe. city' of
the Canadian flag argument;,' the
lurking 'threat of violence in .Que-.
bec; the growing defiance of pol-
ice by youth gangs; .. the increase
in homicidal tactics en our. high.

:Perhaps a little blood-Iettina
would purge our native !and of
this tendencyto quibble ..and squab-.
;ble about 'everything from the
national anthem to the water lev-
el' in the Great . Lakes.
There's also the matter of in-
ternational prestige. All the big
boys -England, France; ' Russia,
the U.S., China—have been through
an all-out civil war,and gone on
to greater.. ;thins, .In each, case
the country.was so .whacked out
by the end of the war that every-
body stopped ,bickering . 'and com-
plaining,
onn plaining, and got down to the job
of becoming a, Great . Nation.
How 'can we hope to gain res-
pect .cif the world if we , never go
through . a testing time of seeth-
ing ,hatred, unmentionable cruel-
ties, gallant guerrillas, and all
the other Ingredients: •of'' a good
civil war? , •.
How is our • national character
to •be transformed ' from lumpy
porridge to forged steel if 'we
never throw a Molotov cocktail,
blow up a bridge, • or `hurl our-
selves, barehanded, against tanks?
We should be ashamed of our-
selves, Mumbling . and 'grutnbing
about the C11C and the NDP arid
the Red Ensign and 0 Canada
and what's 'tor supper, when we
could be stringing up cabinet min -
and sacking 'the O'Keefe , Centre.
The Irish had • a rebellion nearly
50 years ago. It lasted a few days
buttthey've' written countless books
about it, and every Irishman over
the age of 20 swears he was in it,
though he'll admit he was only a
broth of a boy at- the ' time. Why
can't we have some, grand trad-
itions ' like that? ` p -
Think .of the -stories we'd have
to .hand ' dawn ;`o our • ancestors:
"Yes, Homer, , your vrandaddy',.
was there,'back . in '64,when the
Legion, enraged about the ° flag,
marched on Ottawa., Mayor Char
lotte Whitton slowed them , for a
moment at' the ramparts with a
tirade„ of: invective, but :.nothing
could stop ,them. They,,.swar.,med'
into the city, surrounded the goy'
ernment .buildings, and fired, a
salvo of resolutions, One of these
happened'" to. pierce : the National
'Debt, and the streets ran red with
ink."
Or, "Yes, dear, T want you al-
ways to remember, and to tell'
your children,. that your father was
one of the brave freedom fighters
in the Great Rising' of '64. He was °.
leading' a wave 'of . gallant lads in
'a loot . uh: liberating attack on
the Seagram distilleries, a capital;'
ist stronghold. 11e was cut down
by the facist firehoses & seriously
wounded in the •uh, lower back
,when ,he fell heroically on the
Mickey of 'rye in his hip; pocket,"
Only one stipulation If this nec-
essary ' catharsis, this national
lancing of our abscess, breaks Out,
and it's brother against brother,
father against• son, may T be on
the same side as my wife?
The new and nervous pastor was
delivering . a rousing sermon on
the evils of gossip. -"If there's
anything 1 :can't abide," he de-
claimed, • "it is a tongue -bearing,
tale -wagging woman" •
