The Lucknow Sentinel, 1988-11-16, Page 3Hockey great,
Rev. David Bauer was an inspirational
hockey coach, a caring educator and,
some have said, a genius, but despite the
beliefs of those who played hockey under
him, he was not immortal. Bauer died last
week at the Goderich hospital, losing his
final stand with pancreatic cancer.
Although he was known as Father Bauer

member of the audience to ask him if they
were to vote for him and if the major '.y of
his constituents were against free i ri t
would he cross the floor of the ommons.
Cardiff replied he did not feel a member
should cross the floor because the voters
elected the member from a certain party
and that would mean they accepted that
party's policies.
He said that in the case of a member
wanting to cross the floor, that member
should resign and a byelection be called
and he should run as a new candidate.
In response to a question on the U.S. Om-
nibus Act, he explained Canada's exemp-
tion from the 180 point protectionist bill. To
refute Duiop's accusation, he added the
free trade bill allows Canada to process its
natural resources giving the country more
of an advantage.
New Democratic Party candidate Tony
McQuail told the audience it doesn't mat-
ter which party, Conservatives or Liberals
get into power because both are backed by
"big business."
"Only Ed. Broadbent is independent of
big business. You have the choice to be a
country or an economic satellite of the
United States.
"The Liberal party and the Conservative
party t trade speeches... policy flip
flop," he
McQuail also str sled the agricultural
community ought to be able to make a de-
cent living and get a fair return on their
investment.
"The New Democratic party have pro-
grams which work for you, not just pro-
mises you the dream of someday..." he
said.
Disagrees with farm aid package
Christian Heritage Party candidate Tom
Clark briefly disagreed with the Conser-
vative government's recent $860 million
program to aid the farmers.
He said, "It is irresponsible, 10 days
before an election to try and buy the
farmers' votes, it's not right and I don't
think that the farmers will buy it either."
On the priority list for the Christian
Heritage Party is a law banning abortion.
"80,000 citizens are murdered each year.
We are committing genocide. We have to
protect the unborn, or the diseased in
hospital or the infirmed and aged « i fl l t.
next," he said.
"Life is sacred, given my by G
only hod has the right toke it away.
goveinment has the right to sanctio.i ; .JJ1
tion," he said.
Canada's role in Star Wars program
In answer to a three part question from
the floor concerning the Star Wars pro-
gram, nuclear free Arctic and the nuclear
first strike issue, Cardiff said the Star
Wars program was in actuality a space
station to be used as a monitoring device.
Canada's role in the program was building
the components for the station, he said.
Regarding the Arctic being a nuclear
free zone, he agreed with making it
nuclear free but said nuclear submarines
would be permissible.
He was in favor, as were the other can-
didates, of attempting to reduce the
nuclear stockpiles and working with the
United Nations to avoid a possible first
strike situation developing.
In regards to the abortion issue only the
NDP candidate McQuail said women
should have the choice as to whether or not
they wish to be a mother.
Dunlop said he does not believe in abor-
tion on request, except is cases such as
rape and incest.
Cardiff responded to the .abortion issue
by saying he is pro-life and feels legislation
is needed.
In their closing statements, each can-
didate stressed what they felt was most
important.
McQuail stressed, "Let's not make the
same flip flop mistake. We have to start
setting up programs which will stay in the
country and in favor of giving the farmers
after he was or adined as a Catholic priest,
it could very well have been for the fact
that he gave birth to Canada's first na-
tional hockey team.
Bauer was born in Waterloo on
Iv)vember 2, 1924 and r'arne to the atten-
tion of the hockey world w Pn he played as
a fiery winger at St. Michael's in Toronto
a decent return for their labors."
CHP candidate Clark said Canada is in
real trouble morally and if the government
can'tdeal with pornography how can they
deal with the economy and the deficit.
"I am against free trade, and I need you
to stop it. You must vote against free
trade," said Dunlop in his closing speech.
The federal election will be hdld Mon-
day, Nov. 21.
S
and as a member of the Memorial Cup
championship team from Oshawa in 1943.
Destined fora role as a star in the Na-
tional Hockey League, Bauer chose in-
stead a calling in the priesthood. The
Boston Bruins, who held his contract,
reluctantly released Bauer from their
negotiating list in 1945, settling instead for
his older brother Bobby. The elder Bauer
is famous for playing right wing ori the old
Kraut line with Milt Schmidt and Woody
Dumart.
While Father Bauer gave up fame and
fortune in the NHL, he certainly did not
give up hockey. Following his ordination,
Bauer returned to his former high 'school
as a teacher and coach. Behind the St.
Mike's bench he guided the team to the
1961 Memorial Cup.
In 1962, Bauer's dream of seeing a truly
Canadian national team came to reality.
At the annual meeting of the Canadian
Amateur Hockey Association, he made a
presentation to establish a permanent na-
tional team. From there the legend of this
great man began to form.
The Bauer philosophy was relatively
simple: to combine sports and education.
His dreeam was to restore Canada's inter-
national hockey honour and that dream
was fulfilled each and every team he iced a
team in international competition.
Father David Bauer will not soon be
forgotten. At this year's Winter Olympics
in Calgary, teams from all over the world
played in an arena bearing his name.
Canada and the entire world of organiz-
ed hockey lost a dear friend last week.
