TED WHITE. MP for North
Vancouver, blasted bureaucrats in
the Human Resources Ministry for
overruling his recommendations on
cuts to grants under the SEED sum-
mer employment program for stu-
dents,

“Et is outrageous that unclected,
unaccountable bureaucrats can
ignore input from an MP," said
White. “They are supposed to be
public servants, not public enemies.
Taxpayers in North Vancouver help
to pay the salaries of these people
but have no way to stop the uncon-
trolled dispensing of tax dollars to
special interest groups.

“I was elected to represent the

North Vancouver Reform MP
angered by federal bureaucrats

voters of North Vancouver and in
good faith t sampled their opinion
on these grants through a commit-
tee selected at random from the vot-
ers list. E then passed their recom-
mendations on to the department.”
White continued.

“We are supposed to be living in
a democracy butan MP has no way
of preventing bureaucrats froim
doing whatever they want with tax-
payers’ money. What sort of
democracy is that?"

Grant applications rejected by
MPs are routinely sent to the minis-
ter for what amounts to rubber
stamping the recommendations of
the department staff.

White has decided to reject auto-
matically all future applications for
graats so that the minister, Lloyd
Axworthy, is forced to be directly
accountable for future special inter-
est group funding decisions in
North Vancouver.

“It is extremely frustrating that a
conscientious MP who is trying to
be a fiscal watchdog for his taxpay-
ers is powerless to control the purse
strings,” said White.

“This government is spending
$110 million more per day than it
collects in taxes yet it does every-
thing possible to prevent MPs from
helping to stop the waste. No won-
der spending is out of control.”

THE PERFECT COMBINATION!
