Over 250 people attended the nomination meeting in Brussels Monday night. There were no surprises as local delegates went through the motions of renominating the Grey Township farmer. "I'm pleased with all the support," said Mr. Cardiff. "The September 4 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 I was first nominated. I look forward to keeping this riding in the PC fold," he said. In his list of priorities for 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 for work of equal value. That's what we're committed 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 high taxes. "We have to defang Revenue Canada and 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 rr::a.'?:ets are there. In one of his trade missions, he said sales of over $200 million were made in three weeks. "For every $1 billion in exports, 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 the Goderich 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 the population of his riding, are concerns of Mr. Cardiff. And the issue of peace is another of his concerns. "We have to find a way to solve problems—to secure peaceful security throughout the world. We must keep everyone working together." "We have a job to do on Sept. 4 and I want a mandate to go back to work," said Mr. Cardiff. ELECTION MOST IMPORTANT Many dignitaries attended the nomination meeting, including Conservative MP Perrin Beatty from Wellington-Dufferin-Simcoe. "This election is the most important one for Canada," he said. The Liberal leadership convention was like the 'Let's make a deal' show. "I get the impression that Mr. Turner is leading us back to the 1960s. The Liberals aren't the people who can give fresh direction. The plight of family farrns continues to grow. And the government says it has the right to go back to office. But if that happens, we can expect the mistakes they made in the last 21 years to continue," said Mr. Beatty. He said $1 of every $3 made by Canadians is required to pay the interest on the national debt. "It has doubled in four years." "Canada needs a new team and new faces. It's time to swing the power from Ottawa to the ordinary people. A government in power too long feels it can govern because. it has the divine right. It's time for a change." Mr. Beatty headed the PC task force ttvhich held hearing across Canada concerning problems Canadians faced with Revenue Canada. The task force has come up with 76 recommendations, none of which have been accepted by the government, said Mr. Beatty, - "It's time for a taxpayers' bill of rights; to upgrade the revenue department and scrap the giota system. Our recommendations are workable. Canadians have a choice. They can have the old ways back again, or can elect a new administration that's more fair and accountable."
