Murray Cardiff, member of parliament of
Huron -Bruce for the last:folk .years, was.
acclaimed as Progressive Conservative
candidate for the riding. °
Over 250 people attended the nomination
meeting in Brussels Monday night: -There
were no surprises as localdelegates went
through the motions .of renominating the
Grey Township farmer. -¢
"I'm pleased with .all the support," said
Mr. -Cardiff. "The September election in
this riding should be as good as ever." , ' "A lot of water has gone under the bridge
in the four and a half years since t. was first -
nominated. I look forward to keeping this,
riding in the PC fold," he said. . -
In his list of prioritiesfor the PC election
platform, Mr. Cardiff stressed fostering
good east -west relations. But the main issue,
he said, was jobs for 1,362,000 unemployed
Canadians of which 500,000 are young,
people? .. .. ,
"Our , party has developed proposals to
create employment. We agree there should
be equal pay forwork of equalvalue. That's
what We're comtnitted.to. • •
Citing statistics from the mid 1970s to 1983,
small business has generated about 50 per-
cent of new jobs, . said Mr. Cardiff. "But •
•.small business is threatened with red tape
and are being intimidated by hightaxes.
"We have to defang Revenue Canada andL•
put them back in line. The Canadian
government, has become such a huge
borrower that small •business and Canadian
people have to compete against
government."
FARMS ARE BACKBONE •
"I also believe that preservation of the
family farm is important because it's the
backbone of the country. Government has a
responsibility to provide long-term credit to
agriculture. We have to provide equitable
financing for agriculture to be . viable:. This
will put farmers in a better position."
Under a Progressive Conservative
government, the red meat plan' would be
implemented quickly, he . said.. Another
agricultural issue is the preservation • of
farmland and water. "We have to protect •
the 'Great Lakes. Many people in Huron and •
Bruce counties • are • dedicated to'

preservation—we're committed as a party,"
Having , participated in world trade
missions • during his term in office, Mr.
Cardiff said Canadians can trade because
the markets are there: In one of his trade
missions, he said sales of over $200 million
'were made in three weeks, .. '
"For every $1 billion inexports, we create
17,000 new jobs -we know the importance of
trade. Trade means revenue for Canada and •
most of all, it means jobs."'
GODERICH HARBOR
Locally, expansion of theGoderich harbor
is important for his riding, said Mr. Cardiff.
"The expansion; is a project that should be
funded. And it might happen this summer.
It's a high priority on my list because it will
create' : jobs and help the agricultural
community. - •
Health care •and. suitable . housing for
senior: citizens, ,who make •up 20 per cent of

Mr., Cardiff. And theissue of :peace is
another of his concerns. "We -have to find a '.
