Tories show confidence at nomination of McKinley
Robert McKinley was
acclaimed Tuesday evening
as the Progressive Conser
vative candidate in the new
•riding of Huron-Bruce.
McKinley was unapposed
as 300 party faithfuls
gathered at Saltford, just
north of Goderich for the
nomination.
The Zurich area farmer
who has represented the
riding since 1965 was
nominated by Goderich
lawyer Jim Donnelly who
said Canadians were sick
and tired of being led
around by the present
Liberal government.
Giving moral support for
the veteran MP were fellow
members of the Conser
vative shadow cabinet
Bruce Halliday of Oxford,
Bill Jarvis of Perth-Wilmot
and Conservative finance
critic Sinclair Stevens,
representing York-Simcoe.
McKinley who received a
standing ovation when he ap
proached the speaker’s
podium, said this country
has had to put up with five,
years of Trudeau errors that'
cost each person in the coun
try $356 every year just to
pay for the interset on the
government’s indebtness.
He said there have been
signs "that the Trudeau
years are finally over.”
Huron businesses have
been neglected just as all
small businesses across the
country have been ignored
along with the independent
farmer.
More support from the
government sector for the
small entrepeneur must
before forthcoming as they
are.the economic lifeblood of
ridings such as Huron-
Bruce.
Such support would enable
rural areas to be more at
tractive to their youth who
have been forced to seek
employment in the large ur
ban centres.
During the past few years
many people of the country
have been supporting
Conservative party prin
ciples with McKinley citing
the election of six Tory
provincial governments.
Under the leadership of
Joe Clark the PC’s have
become a “united party” all
working towards a single
goal, McKinley stated.
As a result of Clark’s
leadership “We can expect
to see teamwork and honest
and fair government,” ac
cording to McKinley.
Recapping some of his
latest activities as this
area’s representative on
Parliament Hill, he said he
was looking forward to ser
ving the people of the riding
once again.
Exuding confidence
McKinley said “This time I
know we are campaigning
for a Progressive Conser
vative government.”
Guest speaker for the af
fair Stevens, blasted the
Trudeau government for its
inept handling of the
country. “He could have
resigned five years ago,”
Stevens said mockingly.
If elected, a Conservative
Government will implement
budget ceilings based on a
constantly changing five
year basis.
Departments would have
to priorize their budget with
cut-backs in the result if the
spending ceiling was not
met.
A Conservative govern
ment would work towards a
balanced budget by 1985, the
potential finance minister
under a Clark government
he said.
The civil service would be
reduced by not filling jobs
that became vacant. Such a
move would see the service
reduce its numbers by about
25,000 per year and save the
government one half billion
dollars per year according
to Stevens.
The MP said under the
proper guidance the country
could prosper in the 1980’s
with the changes proposed
by the Conservatives attrac
ting investment to Canada.
Concluding his remarks,
Stevens said a Conservative
government would allow the
country to capture the
greatness which it once had.
economy in several areas in
cluding the expansion of the
civil service and the alloca-
tion of funds for
questionable programs and
projects.
Stevens told the audience
“It’s a great time to be a
Tory. I think the trend is
running our way and running
against the emperor Pierre
Trudeau.”
The present prime
minister “is done for sure”
if the enthusiasm of the par
ty at all levels can be main
tained for the balance of the
campaign, according to
Stevens.
Alluding to an incident in
one of the Quebec ridings
where Trudeau had been
presented with a stuffed
goose, Stevens drew
laughter of approval when
he said “It’s up to us to take
the next step and cook the
goose for him.”
Stevens said recent com
ments by Trudeau about the
importance of unity in the
campaign and some of the
personal criticisms which he
had leveled indicated
Trudeau was a “desperate
man” who must find it
“frightening” to have only
one Liberal provincial
government to deal with.
