Opposition. • This particular
motion dealt with the alleged
misuse ' of Canada's manpower
by the 'government and its
failure to adequately, employ
Canada's great potential of
human resources.
Many of the spokesmen laid
pai^ticular stress on the lack of
employment prospects for
students graduating this year and
-� _also the scarcity of jobs for
students at. university and in
secondary. schools across the
country " who need summer
employment in order to
continue their studies next year..
Anather main point
emphasized by, several speakers
was the 'differenc'e in the
unemployment rate between the
various. regions of Canada which
they. claimed was one of the
basic factors behind the nation's
number 1 problem -- regional
disparity. For instance the
unemployment rate for the,
Atlantic' region'was running in
excess of. 10 percent of the
labour force while that for
central Canada, Ontario ill

that w,as bac,k before the :House to the Food and Drugs Act; the
Patents and Trade Mark Act; the
Hazardous Products Act and
various acts dealing with
superannuation in the public
service.
All in all, it was a productive
week 'for Parliament on the eve
or the Easter recess. But much
for more discussion was the bill
that would establish several „niw
departments of government. Ohne
of these . new departnients is
known as the Department 'of
Consumer ' and Corporate
Affairs. One of its main tasks
will be to battle inflation and try
to protect the buying power of
