Seaforth Motors Dial 527-1750 Seaforth What could possibly ac- _countbea baoi taos einfwypor count for the tremennous change in Canadian potties? Suddenly everybody wants to be Prime Minister. Personally, 1 wouldn't tou,ch it with a 12 -foot Finn, let alone a ten -foot Pole. Wild horses couldn't drag me into the job, even if I were quali- fied. What ridiculous reasons could a man have for wanting it? The pay is adeguate, but no more. The hours are frightful. Holidays are scarce and liable to interruption. There's no one else to talk to but other politicians, a living death in itself, And , yould have to learn French. When you achieve the emi- nence, you are inuriediately the target for every snide editorial writer and malicious cartoonist in the nation. The French- Canadian thing looms like a tlituider- cloud, and dead ahead lies the bog a medicare, jt.tst to mention a couple. And yet there's a real scramble for this headaches -and -ulcers po- sition. With the exception of mav- erick John Diefenbaker, Can- ada's leaders for nearly 50 years have been quiet, color- less, capable men. Mackenzie King released his death -grip on the top spot after inter- minable years in office, but hand-picked his successor, a reluctant Louis St. Laurent. He in turnhand-picked an equally reluctant Lester B. Pearson:- Nobody r e a Ily seemed to want the thing, except some equally color- less people like Paul Martin and David Fulton and Don- ald Fleining. But in the last year — rriaybe-there's a •rumor that the salary 'is going to $80,000 — everybody's on the bandwagon. We saw •the Tories battling for the leader- ship, hatcheting down the old chief, spending about a mil- lion 'dollars, andhaving the rug pulled out from under- neath them by a comparativ- ely unknown underwear king.

Why are they willing to take on the worst job in the ceun- try at a time when it can go only from hectic to chaotic? What is it that appeals? There's the honor, of course, the plaee in the history books even if it's only a squib. Per- haps it's pure ego, the feeling that nobody else is as well qualified to lead Canada into the twentieth century, repub- licanism, free love, and and an automatic dishwasher in every k ;tell -ea , knd then there's the hung- er for power. for being at the centre of things, for manipul- ating men pna pVtS.

Although it must be pretty terrifying to realize that if you don't grab the brass ring you go back to being an ordinary minister, at 20 -odd thousand a year, or back to slaving ov- er your financial director- ships. Or — horrible thought -- exiled to the Senate. One interesting aspect is that politics have got out of the hands of the lawyers, Who dominated it for decades.
