Can’‘t Condone Playing of Tapes in Public

The speed with which Premier Ben-
nett and Attorney-General Bonner rushed
to set up an inquiry into the bugging of a
union convention now seems to have been
almost their undoing. d

It was suggested at the time that the
premier’s haste might easily be linked
with his desire to uncover union behavior
that would damage the NDP, which de-
pends so heavily on uniong for its exist-
ence. 5

The termg of reference bore this out.
They dealt only with the union incident.
At the same time, Mr. Bennett said: “The
government of B.C. is determined to pro-
fect the rights of privacy of all citizens.”
But he didn’t put it into writing.

The Attorney-General hinted that the
inquiry might lead to a new law protect-
ing privacy. That wasn’t in writing either.

Now Chief Justice. Wilson has thrown
aut the Royal Commission that was invest-
igating the union bugging. incident. He was
right to do so. He was perfectly correct in
deciding not to take note of anything the

provincial government did not put in writ-

ing... Races ig ; i
ae Aftér redding the terms of reference
— which are the only documents that bind
the Royal Commission; political speeches
have no -bearing.— he decided that the
government wasn’t really out to protect
the public interest.

“There is not the slightest sugges-
‘tion,” he said, “that any matter of public
concern, such as, for instance, the undesir-
‘ability of invasions of privacy. by. the use
‘of electronic devices, is being ig

VICTORIA REPORT

with a view to controlling such matters by:
legislation.”

The way the hearing was ‘going, the
union that complained its privacy was be-
ing invaded was about to suffer an even
greater invasion. Recordings of a private
meeting were about to be made public.
This can hardly be condoned, if the gov-
ernment’s objective was solely to protect
the public from electronic eavesdropping.

All that need be established for such
a purpose is that snoopers did listen in to
a private meeting.

Ig the people responsible for listen-
ing in claim they did it in the national
interest, or to guard against subversion,
then perhaps the royal commissioner
should listen to the tapes privately to de-
cide if the claim is valid. But that gets
into a completely different area of philoso-
phy and morality. ;

The important thing now is to ensure
that the public interest, as opposed to any
partisan. political interest of the govern-
ment, is protected: GM ato Ou

kill ‘a dinosaur with a pea-shooter. And: that’s about all
we have to fight with when we enter. the jungle of an-
other year of life.

However, this is a different New Year. It’s the 100th
anniversary of the Fathers of Confederation, or some-

thing. I: know how that'stirs every Canadian to the mar- -

row. = >
There's no doubt that every one of us feels a thrill
of pride as we enter this particular year. One hundred
years ago we were a uneasy,
resentful amalgamation of distinct areas, worrying only
about local rights and how much it was going to cost us.
But what.a change in a 100 years! Today we are
a proud, glorious nation. Worrying about how much it’s
going to cost-us, local rights, resentful, envious, suspici-
ous, uneasy and patched-together. — ;
One cannot help but think, as one looks with. shin-
ing eyes into the shining new year, our centennial year,
that we have made tremendous strides, Sideways.
