The meeting opened with a poem "A prayer for the New Year" by President Mrs. Eva Howatt and the thoMe was "Time to matter 6.1 principie BY J. CARL HEMINGWAY I expect most of you have a fairly good idea of what was in the Speech from the Throne", I don't know your reaction, but it emed to me to be full of rather vague general statements which ayes the government the opportunity of doing very little and amino the opposition for obstructionism. The statement on farm policy indicates a commission to study e nroblem. If the results are the same as with Carter Corn- ission Report on taxation which was not implemented or the eport of the Task Force on foreign ownership headed by Herb ray, which was ready for presentation by mid-February 1971 but hickhas not been released to my knowledge as yet, we can expect have it completed in the distant future at a high cost to the tax ayer and no action taken. The results were aptly put by Miss Agnes McPhail when she Id of an Indian Chief describing Government action in Indian (fairs years ago when he said "Huge black cloud, heap big wind - no RAIN." It frightened me to hear that the Trudeau Government is going o "continue its fight" against inflation. This means that we will ave a continuation of planned unemployment and reduced oduction. Mr. Trudeau is supposed to be a smart man yet any "dumb far- er" can tell him that the way to cure inflation (incidentally cure nemployment) is to have more workers, longer hours and in- reased production. If you need proof just compare the price of ains at present with those of the past several years. Unfor- unately, the farmers didn't even get reduced hours this year it as the weather that put the price up. There is a real problem for Mr. Trudeau if he follows the far- ers' advice. It plays hob with Corporation profits. Mr. Stanfield had an idea when he suggested that the throne peech debate should be postponed and legislation to increase old ge pensions and to solve the unemployment problem be in- roduced. It was a good idea for Mr. Stanfield and the Conser- atives but I wonder if his main concern was for the pensioners and the unemployed. It was a good move to try to defeat the Government and the New Democrats would get the blame for causing an election. The Liberals certainly haven't done anything to improve their position with the voters as yet so the N.D.P. could only lose votes to the onservatives. I had hopes that Mr. Trudeau had changed after the election ut after seeing him completely ignore Mr. Stanfield's efforts on ehalf of the pensioners and the unemployed and discuss the roblem of unity and bilingualism and biculturalisrh, my hopes iminished greatly. I think we should have the debate on the speech from the throne nd find out if the Liberals have a constructive program which they will put into operation. It will also let us know what Mr. anfield is willing to offer when the chips are down and he may at any time be faced with the problem of putting his policy to work. It seems to me that the real problem is economic. Cure unem- ployment by encouraging increased processing of our resources, in- reasing production, as the government does in agriculture, and educe prices. This in turn will reduce the need for higher pensions nd could very well go a long way in promoting unity. I'm still wondering what is going to happen but I hope that our .P. s will find something more important to do than promote nly those things that seem most likely to ensure their re-election. sPend.
