B.C. NDP to ‘raise hell'in Ottawa

By RON SUDLOW
Canadian Press

VANCOUVER Although nearly
half of its 43 members now come
from British Columbia, the NDP will
remain a national force, the party's
provincial director of organization
said Tuesday

“British Columbia will send a very
influential and very large part of our
caucus 19 members but that
doesn't change the character of the
party,” John Pollard said in a
post-election interview. “We are still
a national party

“We emphasized the same issues in
every region. Those members who
were elected in every region all
campaigned against free and
campaigned for a fair tax system and
opportunities for men and

trad

equal
women.”

However, Ian Waddell, the New
Democrats’ B.C. caucus chairman in
the last Parliament who won in Port
Moody-Coquitlam after his Vancou
ver Kingsway seat was wiped out by
redistribution, said he expects the
B.C. influence will make the NDP
more left-leaning federally

‘I think we're going to raise hell in
Ottawa. I think we're going to be a
lot sharper, harder. We've got a lot of
experience.”

Because of the influence of its B.C.
wing, the party will be “a little more
left wing than we've seen the NDP
federally before.”

While the NDP was blanked in the
Maritimes and Quebee in Monday's
federal election, its 43 seats were a
record for the party. The Conser
vatives won with 170 seats and the
Liberals had 81

In Ontario, home
leader Ed Broadbent, NDP support
dropped to 10 seats from 13. But
momentum picked up on the Prairies
as the New Democrats captured 10 of
two of 14 in

province of

14 Saskatchewan seats,

Manitoba, a first-seat-toehold in
Alberta and retained the Yukon seat
TIGHT RACE
The 19 seats out of 32 in British
Columbia nearly became 20 but
Johanna den Hertog lost to Con
servative Kim Campbell in Van
couver Centre by 279 votes in a count
not decided until 5 a.m. Tuesday
The NDP, which said a recount
was doubtful, made its gains at the
expense of the Conservatives who
had 19 B.C. seats in 1984 when 28
ridings were contested. The New
Democrats won eight seats in 1984

Jane Frost, the Tories’ campaign
chairman in British Columbia, said
the overwhelming national issue of
trade, rather than provincial
issues, helped the New Democrats.

“It was very much a national cam
paign and not one of provincial
issues,” she said. “B.C. tends to do
what the rest of the country doesn't

free

do.

“British Columbians don't like the
federal government particularly and
they don't understand it.”

Russell Brink, chairman of the
B.C. Liberal campaign which elected
only John Turner but increased its
share of the popular vote in the
province to 20 pet cent from 16 per
cent, said his party was hurt by a late
switch of anti-free trade votes to the
NDP.

There was a fair bit of tactical
voting in opposition to free trade. We
are clearly third (in British Colum
bia) but our base is stronger than our
final vote showed.”

BUILD BASE

Brink said the Liberals must de-
velop their provincial wing, which
has no seats in the B.C. legislature, to
do well federally

Labor claims it
helped dump Tories

OTTAWA (CP — Organized labor
helped defeat Conservatives in 45 to
60 per cent of ridings on its hit lists in
Monday's election, union leaders say

“It's remarkable we did this well
when you consider the millions of
dollars that were spent by business
and employers in favor of free trade
said Carol Coplea, a spokesman for
the country's postal unions

The big postal unions spent more
than $1 million on commercials and
billboards attacking Canada Post's
privatization and super-mailbox pro
grams. During the campaign, two
million brochures were sent into 49
Conservative ridings across Canada
where the unions were trying to de

The unions were most successful
against -vulnerable Conservative
MPs in unsafe ridings in Ontario, the
Maritimes and Quebec. They had
virtually no impact in strongly Con
servative Quebec and Alberta

"We believe our campaign
tributed to the general mood of
people in key ridings to make a
change from the Conservatives,” said
Coplea. “Of the 38 Conservative

across Canada, 22 were on our target

the Tories were defeated in 15 of
them, said PSAC president Daryl
Bean.
