MORE THAN a hundred members of the North

Vancouver-Seymour Social Credit association sav-
ed their biggest round of applause Saturday for
Grace McCarthy’s pledge that the government will
stand firm in the face of Operation Solidarity

strikes.

**It’s necessary to clear the
air for the people about who
will run B.C. — the govern-
ment you elected on May 5 or
the union bosses,’’ McCarthy
told the group that attended
the breakfast fund-raising
meeting at the Seven Seas
Restaurant.

McCarthy, introduced by
Social Credit party president
Meldy Harris, defended the
government's restraint moves
and spoke of a vibrant future
for the appreciative crowd.

“*I’m sure that you are get-
ting telephone calls from
your friends in other pro-
vinces who are saying that
we’re having a bad time of
it,’’ she said.‘‘But we’re also
hearing them say that they
sure wish they had someone
in their province like Bill
Bennett. We are getting
tremendous support. It is
there, it is real and I can’t tell
you how strong it makes us
feel.’’

McCarthy slapped Opera-
tion Solidarity response to
the restraint program as a
‘‘great socialist ploy’’.

**They don’t tell you about
all the clerical workers that
have had to be laid off,’’ she
said. ‘‘There are no great
fusses or dramatic displays
about unemployment in the
ptivate sector or about the
businesses that have gone
bankrupt. But if they can
trail out the emotional issue
of Human Resources
ministry cuts and make that a
political ploy they will.

‘‘Human Respurces 1s still
in business and still doing a
good job of providing essen-
tial services.’”

McCarthy said the govern-
ment has had to cut programs
because of falling tax
revenues but that it has cut
programs introduced recently

and not essential services,
which she described as the
best in North America.

“*We have cut some pro-
grams,’’ she said, ‘‘We have
cut them not because they are
unessential but because we
have to keep the essential
programs. We have to be
there with income assistance.
We have to be there for
seniors. We have to be there
where familes have broken-
up. We are there today.”’

McCarthy also used the ad-
dress to challenge North
Shore residents to accept the
challenge of attracting some
of the millions of people who
will visit Vancouver for Expo
86 to the North Shore.

‘‘What are you going to do
to serve them and to attract
them?’’ she asked.

“*There will be 18 to 20
million visits to Expo 86. Do
you think they’ll keep all
those people in Vancouver?’’
she asked. ‘‘You are going to
make it so attractive they’ll
want to come over here.
You’re going to make them
feel at home.’’

McCarthy also spoke glow-
ingly of the trade and con-
vention centre.
