Grit policies
at crossroads

Prime Minister Brian Mulroney s Conservative government is
down in the polls right now @ position that always gives Op-
position parfies tresh hope and renewed spirit
And tor Liberal leadership aspirants Jean Chretien, Paul Mar
tin Jr. Lloyd Axworthy and others, it means increased interest in
their views os newspaper columnists and political commentators
give reasons for Mr. Mulroneys slippage and speculate about
possible Liberal party policy alternotives if the Grits were led by
Chretien, Martin, Sheila Copps or some other declared or closet
aspirant
But what is beginning as a result of this renewed interest is the
start of o serious national debate. on policy. Liberal frontrunners
deicared and waiting to declare). are having to examine past and
present policies and — much more importantly — are having to look
into the tuture
Thanks to John Turner and his vigorous opposition to tree trade,
Canadians are having to ask themselves where they want this coun
try to go. And Liberal leadership aspirants are having to articulate
quite specifically where they would lead this 122-year-old nation of
ours
While the era of the politics of personality is not over, and will
never completely disappear, nonetheless the present Liberal leader-
ship race could well be the first one in recent history predominantly
dominated by policy discussion
It's almost a certainty that the next federal election campaign
will see policy issues play a very important part as voters, hungry tor
knowledge and concerned about the future, pay increasingly close
attention to party policies enunciated by party leeders-and-individuel
candidates, and decide to vote 6n issues rather than following
traditional family voting patterns
The prime minister who wins the next tedera! election might
well be the prime minister who leads us into the twenty-first century
There ore those, as they consider the question of when our country
should go. who believe the Liberals need o brand-new leader, a man
who demonstratively owes nothing to either the Trudeau or Turner
periods. Their cry: The Liberals need a leader tor the 50s
At this early stage in the leadership race, it appears the non.
candidate most prepared to discuss policy issues is Paul Martin Jr
The first-time Member of Parliament for the Montreal riding of
LaSalie-Emard is testing his ideas with Liberals across the country
and says that if by early fall there is a good response to his views
then he |i likely formally declare his candidacy
The fluently bilingual Mr. Martin says the challenge facing
Cenada is ‘managing change. a slogan he unabashedly admits
borrowing from Mr. Mulroney
But whether he formally enters the leadership race or not, the
views being expressed by Mr. Martin are important because they are
making ali Canadians, not just those of Liberal persua: n, think

Letters to the editor

Some of Mr. Martins views

* The free trade debate is not over. The real tight has just begun
@s Canade and the U.S. begin a second round of negotiations to
detine allowable subsidies

Dismissing the suggestion he is trying to soften the Liberals
free-trade position to woo back the business community, he none-
theless adds that if the Mulroney government is able to negotiate a
definition of subsidy that protects Canada’s social programs and
regional dvelopment programs then “I won't have any difficulty (with
free trade

© Reassert a strong, active national government

The time for making concessions to the provinces is over

However, “a strong national government is different than excessive
centralization. | believe that a strong national government is the
creation of national will and national programs

* The Meech Lake agreement is flawed but necessary

Negotiations should begin immediately on a parallel pact which
would include much further progress towards aboriginal self
government and Senate reform. The accord’s recognition of Quebec
as a distinct society shoutd be retained because it is’ simply a
recognition of the obvious

* Sleeping segments of society such as the disabled, senior
citizens and women must be given increased opportunities |to work

Women are the fastest growing segment of the population set
ting up small businesses. Rather than rail against the barriers ob-
structing women s desires to go into business, more must be done to
encourage them to do so

* Aworkable industrial strategy must be developed

lf you dont control your own economy, you can’t control your
own destiny.” To this end, Canada needs a foreign investment
review agency that has the teeth to protect Canadian ownership of
developing industries

* New competitive companies must be fostered in Canada who
can take on the world as the world grows increasingly smaller
Specifically, 25 to 30 new Canadian-owned multinationals are
needed before the turn of the century

OTTAWA (CP) The proposed federal sales tax,

taxpayers billions of dollars

Peace walk
planning
continues

Planning for the Aug.’ 6 ,annual
Hiroshima Day Walk and-Vigil has
been the major focus of recent
Castlegar Peace Group meetings, a
news release says.

Each year since 1985 Castlegar and
district residents have gathered at the
courthouse to reflect on the con-
sequences of nuclear warfare and to
reaffirm their committment to
building a more peaceful, nuclear
weapons-free world, the release says.

Following the courthouse vigil, par-
ticipants will again walk to Zuckerberg
Island and gather at the site of the
small peace garden which was
established five years ago on the 40th
anniversary of the destruction of
Hiroshim:

This year the peace group is en-
couraging any participating
organizations — teachers groups,
unions, churches, service clubs and so
on — to bring an identifying banner or
placard to be carried on the walk, the
release says.

On Zuckerberg, the tradition of
music and socializing will be main-
tained. Several singers and musicians
are being invited to contribute to this
special event.

In other peace group news, the mon-
thly early-evening peace vigils continue
to be held at the courthouse on the
22nd day of each month. The group
also continues to monitor the federal
government’s defence policies, and
maintains contact with peace
coalitions at the provincial and federal
levels, the release says.

For more information about the
Hiroshima Day gathering or about the
peace group itself, contact Olga. Kit-
tson.
