A& - Sunday, June 17, 1984 - North Shore News Grits’ ‘new role for West’: it is to laugh! get this stral ht Duck. The fraud comes from the West's not mattering a damn more to those shell-game ar- tists than B.C. weather mat- ters to Botswana. Which is not news. But don’t kid yourself into thinking that having local. girl lona Cam- pagnolo at the head table will make any difference. She’s a sell-out’ and nothing more than a good-looking pain in the neck. { would rather have Zsa Zsa Gabor sitting up there. What comes out of the Cam- pagnolo mouth has always Doug Collins HIS WAS WRITTEN on Friday, before the Liberals had chosen a new leader. But the result of the race will make no difference to what | have to say, which is that yet another fraud is being perpetrated on the West. So for all I care they could have chosen Eugene Whelan or Donald been spoon-fed Pierre. If you want an example of how little the West matters to Ottawa, just take a look at the restrictions on Japanese car imports. Why do we have them? Because it 1s more im- portant to placate the On- tario automobile industry than to worry about a few peasants out here. So it’s nothing but a laugh when the headlines state: **‘Turner Of- into it by fers West New Role In Canada’’. Mao had a better line with ‘‘Let a thousand flowers bloom.”’ The audacity of these characters leaves nothing to be desired as far as audacity is concerned. Turner, for in- stance, was complaining about the deficit. This, as we all know, can be counted in gigajoules and galaxy-miles and is 50 per cent greater, per capita, than that of the U.S. One quarter of your taxes goes to pay the interest on the debt. Yet to hear Turner talk, you would think the deficit was created by men from Mars. You would never dream that when he was Pierre’s friend, the two of them managed to triple ex- penditures. How there can be any Liberals left outside of Quebec is beyond me. Can there be that number of peo- ple sull wanting TV licences?

Collins is correct when he states that nobody knows. The estimated number given in the Nuremberg indictment drawn up in November, 1945 was 5,700,000. It may, of course, have been a few hun- dred thousand more or less, but without doubt it was the greatest crime in human history. To claim that the Holocaust was a hoax is not just foolish, but invites hatred and suspicion against the very people upon whom it was perpetrated. Mr. Collins will remember the edict that those who forget (or deny) the lessons of history are destined to repeat it. Like all others in this country Collins is a member of a minority group Should we burn the Magna Carta because it exempts cer tain InNLErEsl payments (Oo Jews” Not at all, any more than we should burn the in famous Nuremberg laws prohibiting Jews trom prac tising any profession, holding any state post, or marrying any (crman These | Linens, Linens, Linens We've stocked our shelves with a Great Selection of New, Quality Linens all at incredibly Low Prices! documents are part of history too, useful for the lessons taught, or now superseded in whole or part by more enlightened attitudes. Should we criticize the Israelis for the bombing of a U.S. warship, killing 135 American sailors? You bet, just as we should criticize the Americans for the inadver- tent bombing of parts of Switzerland adjacent to Ger- many in the latter part of the war. Were both incidents quickly forgotten? Right again. Should we oppose the racist motions of the United Nations when passed by ma. yorty vote? And the ant- semitic ulterings of Jesse Jackson, who hopes to become a candidate the United States presidency” Come on, Collins, you know the answer to that! Should we oppose — the “preaching of hatred against an identifiable group.’” the crime of which Keegstra is ac cused?

But it was Trudeau, Turner and all those other con- spirators that created the disaster known as Canada, 1984. Mind you, the Liberals have done a lot for us. In B.C., they’ve given us 80,000 Sikhs, 20,000 of whom run through the steets burning ef- figies and demanding that we stop trading with = India. They’ve given us schools in Vancouver that look as if they’ve just been transferred whole from Peking and Hong Kong. They've given us the disap- pearing dollar, and a gasoline {tax that comes with the Hydro bill. They’ve given us gigajoules and_ kilopascals, and kilos instead of pounds. They've also screwed up the oil industry. I could name about 20 other things but you don’t want to read a book. Sa Vases 28.

Having done that, though, they want him cast into the memory hole as fast as_ possible. That’s why Turner took to riding a new horse that does a big heap every time Pierre’s name 1s mentioned. Don Johnston joined in by yelling that the government has no more business being in the gasoline business than in the chocolate business. Some other government must have done that, perhaps. Whelan the clown talked about heat and African heads. In 1980, there were 10,000 Liberals in Capilano.
