The evening concluded with. over 100 guests enjoying a Prayer Meeting For World Unity Held To help celebrate World Religion Day, last Sunday. the Baha'is of the Castlegar area organized an evening meeting of prayers for world unity. The evening meeting, which featured writings and prayers from all the world's major religions, was held at the Castlegar and District Com- munity Centre. The Baha'i faith has world unity as one of its major goals; and members feel it is only through a spiritual regenera- tion of mankind that the goal can be accomplished. The Baha'is also believe that all religions are essentially one, the Religion of God, and have worked around the world to bring about a better under- standing between people of dif- ferent nationalities and faiths. OTTAWA and Small Business Implications of Quebec separation By KENNETH McDONALD Parti Quebecais proposuls for a common tariff, or cus- toms union, hetween Canada and a separate Quehec leave many questions ununswe red. eee Of all the provinces, Que- bec is the most dependent on tariff protection. In those Ca- nadian industries which are protected by tariffs higher than 20 per cent, more than 60 per cent of the employees are in Quebec. In addition, 37 percent of manufacturing employment in Queher istied :- 4.to-sales in other provinces. -. ~ eee If Quehee were to sepur- ate, Canada’s centre of era vity would move in another country? Mare likely is a demand to end freight rate discrimination and set up processing in the West. eee The. Western provinces’ interests would be better served by low tariffs. This would reduce the cost of im- ported goods. Again, within Confederation the Western provinces accept the need to protect Eastern Canada’s industry. ees Bul thegreater-partotthe, protedtion’'Is’ for Quehec’s. benefit.

Their main source of trade is in primary products (grain and minerals). Their historic complaint is that freight are rigged to suit manufac- turers and processors in On- tario and Quebec, Their products move east . at a low rate which .encour- ages processing in Eastern Canada. But in reverse they pay a higher rate on manu- factured goods shipped west. The West has swallowed this inequity for the suke of) strengthening Canada’s manufacturing base within the context of Confedera- tion. Would it continue to do so if the third of that base represented by Quebec were Mn try? What would happen to the 37 per cent of Quebec manulacturing, which is now sold in other parts of Canada, if tariffs were lowered? In April 1975, the results of # nationwide poll of Cana- dian Federation of Indepen- dent Business members on the issue of free trade with the United States was — 44 per cent in favour and SO per cent against.
