oviing is an excerpt from •
Ich given in the House of
ions on. Oct, 22 by Ross
ler, Liberal MP for Bruce,
/debate op a bill dealing
inancing of the CNR.
Speaker, I do not par-
.ly relish speaking this af-
on this bill dealing
he financing of the CNR
because, frankly, I look at it
with a feeling of hoPelessness
and complete frustration. I
look oh it• with frustration
because, ever since coming here '
in 1968, I have heard members
on both sides of the House in-
telligently criticizing the
operations of Canadian
National Railways, yet nothing
has 'happened as a result of
those criticisms. ,
The minister of transport has•
said, under repeated
questioning by many hon. mem-
bers, that he does not have the
power to 'restore the train ser-
vice, and that the Canadian
Transport . Commission,
established by an act of
Parliament, runs the whole
show. May I remind you of
something that happened
several months ago., When Bell
Telephone came before the.
Canadian Transport Com-
mission for a rate increatie, the
government, for reason's
unknown -to me—and I am '
speaking as a private member
and giving my, peirsonal
view—rolled back the rate in-
Crease' awarded to Bell
Telephone. If the government
can do this with respect to
telephone rates, it can do
something with rest to' the
railways.
If ths-Minister of Transport
wi9aet to reinstate the train
service in southwestern 'On-
tario, he can do it. If he thinks
he cannot do it, all he hat to do
is come before Parliament with
a bill. I suggest, although I can-
not speak for my friends in the
opposition, that, we, on my side
of the House, would give the
minister Any pciwers which are
necessary for restoring' this
train service. ,
We should look •into the
whole question of 'passenger
service, not just • in south-
western Ontario,- but in the
whole of Canada. It is
suggested that in the
foreseeable future the price of
gasoline may be $1 a gallon,
There is a great problem of
pollution in our cities. Surely,
this is not the time when
railway passenger service
should be finished, 'especially
when 100 percent of the com-
mittee members recommended
that train service be re-
initiated in the, area from
which I come.
I. am' sure members will not
be shocked to learn that, in-
stead of re-initiating service,
the railway stations in this area
are being torn down. One could
. very well ask what we, as mem-
bers of parliament, are doing
here today or any other day
discussing the question of CNR
financing.
