P. eegates take part in P 'convention debate Delegates to the recent convention of the Ontario New Democratic Party reported on their activities to an executive meeting of the Huron-lVliddlesex NDP held in Clinton. Tony McQuail said riding delegates took an active part in two debates in particular. They yoiced:'4upport for the energy policy adopted by the convention, which calls for a moratorium, on the further development of nuclear power as well as provision for extensive research to bring alternative energy sources on -stream. In addition the delegates helped deteflt amendments to • the Manufacturing strategy which had proposed the nationalization of key industries -4. a means of repairing Ontario's econom- ic *oes. 1n defeating the amend- ments the delegates en- dorsed thelorAilementary roles of priVh(t.enterprise, government and la'or in the economy. k, In other business, at the • !fleeting, the riding execu- tive decided to ask the pro- vincial council of the party to consider a resolution en- dorsing a system of electoral balloting, which would en- sure that no candidate for elected 'office would get in without the support of an overall majority of the elec- torate. The resolution calls for the establishment - of • a preferential ' ballot. SuCh a system is used in Australia where a multi-party system, not unlike that in Canada, led to candidates being elected with much less than 50 per cent electoral support. Instead of marking an 'X' beside the name of a Candi- date,- a vOter would indicate first, second and third choices by placing a 1, 2 or 3 beside the name. In tallying the results, a voter's last choice would be eliminated and the second choice would be included in tabulation of the results. This procedure would continue until the preferred choice of a majority of the voters was discovered. Last Sunday was Com- munion Sunday, with the choir singing 'Cleanse Me' as the morning anthem.
