"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.

' "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.
