tion held roe. , in the Exeter Community
Centre, The ' excellent turnout could be
credited in prt to the drawing power of the
guest speaker, former Finance Minister
John Cr**.
The his audience. of �s
West 'dltcl>110disappoint noble re� �p t in-
troductory mi monologue, with
the obligatory Newfie joke, was followed by
40 minutes of Crosbie -style Liberal bashing.
Crosbie said the central issue facing the
country is not language, nor the constitution
nor the Liberal succession, but economic
growth. He had dug back into the speeches
and statements of Prime'Minister Trudeau
and cabinet Members to compare p o mise
with performance. Unemployn.,ent stood at
five percent in 1960, it was seven and one-
half percent four years ago with 9%7,000
jobless when Trudeau said he endorsed the
right of every Canadian to a job, and has
now risen to 1,476,000 persons out of work.
Crosbie quoted finance minister Lalondes
prediction. of 111 percent unemployment for
the next two years to indicate little relief in
the forseeable future. -
Crosbie- drew a direct connection between
the federal National Energy Policy and the
recent announcement by Shell Oil, that 800
Ontario workers are- being laid 9ff and the
oil company is moving its headquarters
from Toronto to Calgary.
"I wrnilel snnner have lots than a 12 per-
cent increase in ownership by Petrocan,"
Crosbie remarked.
Crosbie attacked the increasing rate of in-
flation and the enormous budget deficits pil-
ing up year by year. Since 1972, the deficit
has grown to $101 billion, and now one in
three tax dollars goes to service this debt, he
said.
In concluding, Crosbie answered press ac-
cpsations of the Censervative'-s lack of
policy by informing his audience that, "We
have truckloads of policy; policy coming out
our ears, but it wouldn't matter if we didn't
have one shred of policy, not a single
ounce...it would be better to vote for us...we
have opposed all these things that have turn-
ed out so disastrously."
The partisan crowd gave him a standing
ovation.
Murray Cardiff, MP for the Huron -Brace
riding, publicly announced he will be a can
didate when nomhfations are held in the
riding.
