Dear Editor:• What is going on in the whirl of Canadian pofl tics? We are hearing about unkept promises on the one hand and unacceptable promises that are being kept on the other. There is news from more than one quarter of harsh discipline being meted out within • party ranks in attempts to hold the solidarity line and of one high-ranking cabinet member who saw no personal escape hatch ahead other than to "Copp out". And now in the provincial circles of Ontario v(e have a game of take -and -give -back going on. The writer is neither adequately informed nor suffi- ciently calculating to understand what is happening or why, but is wallowing in a pool of confusion which seems crowded with fellow floundeters. The maneuverers in the situations seem to me to be anal- agous to anglers planning and venturing out on a fishing trip and trying to decide on the time and conditions most likely to be productive, the bait or lure to use to catch the desired species and size of fish, and how best to distribute the take among the demanding and the needy. Let us hope that actions, guided or misguided as they may be, will not have lost sight of the basic goal of democratic Societies - the ultimate greatest good for the greatest number. History is replete with examples of dreams and searches for utopias. Sir Thomas More may have been the first Englishman to use "Utopia" for the ti- tle of a book which he wrote in the 16th century. It lays out the social and economic conditions needed to provide the best of all possible worlds for the most inhabitants, I vaguely recall. In the next centu- ry Samuel Butler wrote "Brehwon" (Nowhere, Veiled backwards). He seemed to promote the idea that to ail is to sin and, by converse, sinning is ail- a•�. t` . I ing. His philosophy was basically cynical, as the ti- tle would intimate. It was also in the 17th century that Daniel Defoe wrote "Gulliver's Travels" in which the traveller successively lived in societies of giants, lilliputians and horses: He seemed to con- clude that societal welfare was highest and most general when horses were in charge. George Orwell who wrote "Animal Farm" some generations later goes along with Defoe In ascribing inborn talents to 'animal society.but gives 'first place to the pigs. These early''dreamers were perhaps of the tongue-in- cheek variety but did something to expose weak- nesses and errors evident in human societies. There have always been, still are and always will he leaders in politics and social thinking who have and will again dream of new utopias. Thomas Hux- ley who, like the writer, was born in the first decade of this fading century, came out with his "Brave New World." His philosophy of the good society seems more viable and less cynical than those of earlier dreamers. Political leaders from time to time hark back to the "one world" nature of modern soci- ety. F.D.R. in the f I('e thisdreatn of a Shan - gra La in his mind and,fireside•ehats. Dreams, ac- tions and realities seen a natural sequence that should and could be workable and worth trying. It is not easy to dream positively or to retain a strong link between faith and hope. Conversely, it is all too easy to see individual trees as obstacles to vision rather dila' retain *picture of the forest as a whole. Ways and to ani seem often to be pointing towards the wrong ends. We, today's citizenry, have the right and die obligation to let our thoughts and views be heaird by'our elected representatives. A good citizen does more than watch, wait and hope. We might even take another look at Defoe's horses and Orwell's pip. Gerry Dobrindt, Exeter, Ontario
