Liberal in a blue suit

N A COUPLE OF DAYS we’ll know who’s go-
ing to be the next MP for Capilano, because
there’s no doubt that whoever gets the Tory

nomination gets the job. The constituency would
no more go back to being Liberal than it would

vote for the Ayatollah.

But when the federal elec-
tion comes it will be an unen-
thusiastic stamp of approval
that goes to the successful
nominee.

That’s because Mulroney
has blown it. So much so that
its difficult to understand
why Mary Collins bothers to
get a letter of approval from
the guy, or why Mac Camp-
bell thinks he’s doing himself
any good by having his pic-
ture taken with him. Rod
Clark is clever to stay away
from such nonsense. What 1s
needed, you see, is a Tory,
not a Liberal in a blue suit,

which 1s what Mulroney 1s. -

English Canada calls out for
a champion, not just a guy

with a good denust.

John Turner’s chosen role
is to persuade the country
that the Liberal Party never
existed. And he may just pull
it off, the voters in Ontario
being so dumb. If he does, it
will be because the Tory par-
ty 1s scared stuff of being
Tory. That was why Joe
Wimp failed. But judging by
Turner’s initial performance
in Manitoba, when he said
that the provinces would set
the pace in language matters,
Turner’s more of a Tory than
Mulroney will ever be. On
that famous occasion,
Mulroney put sacks over the
heads of his Manitoba MPs,
lest they said what the

Dear Editor

your ‘‘Letter of the Day" in
your issue of June 13th, in
which Mr. R.L. Hartin

berated the RCMP for stopp-

north end of the Second Nar-

rows bridge, while letting
pass a driver who, by
previous observation, Mr

Hartin considered to be im

Hartin’s letter that the

Mr Hartin is such a diligent

peasants of Anglo Canada
were thinking.

LOST DIRECTION
An interesting example of

the frustration felt by real
Tomes is seen in the May
issue of Overview, the

newsletter put out by the Na-

tional Citizens Coalition.
Richard P. Robarts, of
Windsor, Ont., had written

to David Angus, Chairman
of the PC Canada Fund, and
Overview reprinted what he
had to say. Here is part of it:

“It continues to be very
hard for me to contribute to
the party when it appears that
the Conservatives have lost
their conservativeness.

“‘l remain puzzled as to

how the country became
French, metric, and soctalhiz-
ed to the tune of over 400

Crown corporations — many
of which would give my unil-
ingual daughters a hard time
if they apphed for a job

Consequently, three of my
seven children are now in the
United States, seeking their
education and eventual jobs
and no doubt spouses.

“‘This certainly was not
our plan for them .... my
children being eighth genera-
tion Canadian and of United
Empire Loyalist descent to
boot. But how can we argue
against them when we see
what 18 happening in
Canada? \t seems that we
Conservatives have lost our
sense of direction.”’

UT OF TOUCH

! use this stuff only to
show you that Collins is not
alone in his ravings, and to
demonstrate that the
mainstream press 1S just as
much out of touch with what
people are thinking as the
hopeless Mulroney is. Here is
another excerpt from
Overview:

“Mr. Mulroney shows no
sign of recognizing the need
for change. His calls for cut-
ting the deficit and the debt
are no more imaginative than
his opponent's. His appoint-
ment of Flora MacDonald as
vice-chairman of the party’s
inner cabinet, and of David
Crombie to replace retiring
Treasury Board critic Ron
Huntington, stamp the party
as being no more conser-
vative than the Liberals.

His courting of the Quebec
vote commits him to the same
strategy as the Liberals:
transferring funds to that
Province, respecting 115
autonomy in matters of
social spending, education,
immigration and language,
and expanding the use of
French elsewhere.”’

that Mulroney’s a Liberal in
a blue suit, take a look at the
