Quite apart from any political considerations, you have before you two entirely different points of view. The Progressive Conservative Party believes that this province has unequalled opportunities for development provided that our great resources are put to work under plans for the future which will provide the electric power and other requirements for the greatest period of expansion we have ever known. Our opponents do not believe that these opportunities for expansion exist. It is their right and their duty to express their own opinion about our future. They have done so. They do not believe in our great programme of development. They have acted accordingly and will continue to do so. You know the record of the government and the many things it has done to ad- vance the interests of all our people. You know the tremendous programme of develop- ment which we have approved and which will go into effect if we receive your support on June the 7th. We believe that is the way to assure employment in the years ahead. On the other side you have a static point of view which thinks that all this development should be deferred until the threat of unemployment which they are constantly pre- dicting is actually upon us. Developments of this kind take years to complete and the best way to maintain employment in the future is to provide the power and other resources which are needed to keep employment at a high level. That is the point of view we ask you to support. I do wish to emphasize one unusual feature of this election. The Communists in this province, relatively small in numbers, are highly organized. They are supporting the C.C.F. I recognize that the leaders of the C.C.F. Party have disavowed this support. The fact remains, however, that in every riding except two where there are Communist candidates• who were members of the last Legislature, the Communist vote, large or small, is going to the support of C.C.F. candidates. This may be un- fortunate for the C.C.F., and may be against the wishes of that Party. It is apparent, however, that the policies of the C.C.F. Party find sufficient acceptance with the Com- munists to gain their support. No matter how worthy any individual C.C.F. candidate may be you have only one way of making sure that your vote is not going to be joined with a'Communist vote. It should be remembered that in every country where Communism has come to power, including Russia, it came originally through an alignment with the Socialist party in that country. You may think the danger is still far away here in Canada. Only a few years ago they thought it was very far away in those countries which have been brought under Communist slavery within the past three years. The time to end the threat of Communism is while we are still strong and free, not' when freedom hangs in the balance and we face one last desperate decision. , This is not just an ordinary election. With democracy threatened all over the world as it is today, this is an opportunity for the people of Ontario to show by their vote that they really believe in the right to vote. Naturally I hope that you will support the candidate of our party in your riding. No matter how you vote, 'however, may I urge every one of you to exercise your franchise so that we demonstrate to ourselves and to those living in Less fortunate lands, that we really know the value of our freedom. Never has this province advanced so greatly as it has under the progressive policies of the present government. Our programme for the future provides for still greater de- velopment in the years ahead. With the great opportunities which are before us, I hope you will give us an o4erwhelming mandate to keep Ontario strong through the years ahead.
