WHEN ELECTIONS occupy the public mind, reporters
pay attention to what the candidates say, it aften being dif-
ficult to report what they don’t say. But it is what they
don't say that interests me, plus the bits that are mentioned

only quietly.

You probably know where |
stand in the current camest. | like
the Dutch dude. He faughs a fot,
and although he's accused of be-
ing all style and no substance, his
persona is OK with me. For one
thing, Pike his style. For another,
he has substance a-plenty. For a
third, I agree with the Count de
Buffon that ‘the style is the man
himself’.

Having presented my creden-
tials (something you don't get
from every scribbler, y’know)
allow me to elaborate on some of
the items that the Bob Skelly-
David Scireck axis is not
emphasizing.

if those chaps win, the first
thing they would do would be to
resuscitate the reign of terror
known as their human rights
system.

Perhaps | can jog your memory
with an example of what | mean,

| and for that the Bill Konyk case
will do.

| Bill was arraigned by the rights
mob for daring to call his fast
food outlets Hunky Bill's House
of Perogies. The smug and the
prissy considered such a name to
be an insult to Ukes, and never
mind that Bill himself was and is a
Uke.

The Socreds were in power at
the time, it is true, but it was the
law as created by the NDP that
permitted the atrocity to be com-
mitted. The complaint was
dismissed in the end, but not
before the protest industry had
damned Hunky as an enemy of
the people and he had spent well
over $20,000 on lawyers.

It cost the complainants
nothing, of course. You picked up
their bills.

{ Schreck is: running against Jack
Davis ‘in North Vancouver-
Seymour, in case you have forgot-
ten, and I} would not bet on his
walking away with the prize. But

} an NDP victory in the province at
large would certainly result in the
dreadful B.C. Human Rights
Branch being restored, together
with the prudish and doltish B.C.
Human Rights Commission.
Employers would once again be

under the gun for not employing

more men with beards, ete. and
the Gestapo of the Left would
receive bia subsidies.

The Skellys and the Schrecks
cannot remain silent: on some
things, naturally, they being so in-
volved with the pressure groups.
Thus a Schreck election pamphlet
States that Davis has shown ‘ta
complete lack of understanding of
multicultural and native land
claim questions"’

Funny, that, because |} would
say he has displayed total
understanding of such things. But
what Schreck really means is that
he, Schreck, stands for the
minorities against the majority.
So does the NDP — a fact to
which Joe Lunchbucket may one
day wake up. Why else do you
think that Svend Robinson danc-
ed with woad on his face at Lyall
Island? Vander Slam, on the other
hand, may pat Indians on the
head, but does not hint that he
will let them revive the midden
business in Stanley Park.

A Skelly-Schreck victory would
signal the bursting of the money
dam, too. It would be 1972 all
over again, when the first thing
Dave Barrett did was to double his
own salary.

There were increases of up to 50
per cent for government
employees; the education wallahs
discovered they had struck more
gold than was found inthe Yukon
Gold Rush; professors danced in
the streets, and = lesbians and
fairies were able to hold parties on
provincial grants.

The Skelly-Schreck axis sup-
ports all that stuff, and Schreck
describes Socred attempts to hold
the pay line as ‘‘extremism and
needless confrontation”

On top of everything else, the
NDP peddles more gloom than a
graveyard. Until Expo 86
dazzled the world with its glitter,
Skelly was against that. too.
Mega-projects? He would rather
give the money to his [ellow-
teachers and social workers. Or to
those who take what the food
banks give them and then spend
their welfare cheques on booze.

Give me the Slam. He may
disappoint me one day, but I like
his style.
