WEDNESDAY, MARCH 26, 1958 Guest Editorial By Zurich Student THIS EDITORIAL was taken from the school paper of St, Mary's Redemptorist College in Brockville. It was written by Ronald Bedard, Zurich, who is the managing editor of their paper. Ronald is a first year Arts student at the college. The present system of government in Canada is already a two party government, I would say. Surely, there are a few :minor parties, but since they have such little bearing on the government of our country, I would not include them as an essent= cal part of our system. Let's look now at the present situation: under a two party government. To my mind it is a most agree- able and suitable method, although at present a little shaky. My reason for saying this is that in previous years the Liberals casually had enough majority so they could pass almost all the bills they thought were good for the country. Yet, on major bills, such as the pipe line last year, the opposition was strong enough to make the government hesitate. I am sure most everyone will agree with me that our present government is a two party govern; ment, which works, in most cases, very effectively. Now, the reason I am against a four party government is this: A party is an organization which has a good possibility of :governing this country. If four such parties existed, no party would gain sufficient majority to carry out its platform. This may even happen with two, so imagine what would happen if there! were four parties! A less important reason is that there is no necessity for four parties. People in general believe in either the Liberal or Con- servative principles. Those few who join other parties are ren- egades from these two, but generally they start groups which have similar principles. These little groups are not harmful, I think, as long as they don't get too strong. They might serve like the former Irish party in English parliament served, to "bal- ance the power." ;;A4. \.'. tlt .. + s,`5. \ R E N S O ry`• S TAA L Lm A 61 1 WEHAVE -.. T' .E ...
