6 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesdey, November 28, 1967 GREAT DENTAL DEBATE New Consumer Bill Given Third Reading By House By GERALD McNEIL OTTAWA (CP) -- Handsome John Turner may be known as "Toothless" after the debate Monday in which the Commons gave third reading to a bill es- tablishing a new department of consumer and corporate affairs. In what sounded at times like the Great Dental Debate, five amendments were aimed at giv- ing "teeth" to the new depart- ment. Three were defeated by vote and two ruled out of order. "He doesn't want any real teeth," jibed Grace MacInnis (NDP -- Vancouver-Kingsway), as Mr. Turner 'fought off the proposed changes. Now registrar - general, Mr. Turner will head the new de- partment once the bill is en- acted. It still must receive Sen- ate approval. Before the Commons today will be a resolution to amend the Post Office Act to increase by one cent the rate for letters mailed in Canada for delivery} PARLIAMENT AT-A-GLANCE By THE CANADIAN PRESS MONDAY, Nov. 27, 1967 A Conservative proposal to give investigative powers to the new minister of consumer and corporate affairs was de- feated in the Commons. An NDP attempt to provide for a prices review board in legislation setting up the de- partment also was defeated. The bill setting up the new department was given final Commons approval at the end of the night sitting. External Affairs Minister Martin said the government will make a close study of President de Gaulle's new statement about Quebec sov- ereignty before reacting to it.

Mr. Turner, MP for the Mont- real riding of St, Lawrence-St. George, flashed a _ sparkling smile. He said the prices review board would be constitutionally invalid and "toothless" if it, at- tempted to control prices. . He also said Producers might use such a board to justify price increases based on cost in- creases, something that wasn't always easy to do now. A third amendment by Max Saltsman (NDP -- Waterloo South) to establish a Crown cor- poration to manufacture, dis- tribute, promote and sell drugs was ruled out of order. Creditiste Alcide Simard (Lac St. Jean) also was unable to get past the chairman a proposal for a national credit board to pay retailers to reduce prices. COMPLAINT DEPT Mrs. MacInnis moved a fifth amendment to power the |new department to get informa- tion from others to help deal/j jwith consumer complaints. It! | was defeated 43 to 24. | She said the food and drug di-| rectorate had tried without suc-' cess for 10 years to get the federal agriculture department to amend regulations for labell- ing cans of fruit juice. Only after the Canadian Asso- ciation of Consumers had publi- cized a study showing that the content of many cans fell short of the amount on the label had the agriculture department acted.

McCarthy's official announce- ment that he will undertake the probably unrewarding task of trying to deny an incumbent president renomination is set for Thursday. Acknowledging he is ready "to get my feet wet,"" McCarthy said in an interview Monday that an early start is essential if he is to convince prospective supporters he means business. He indicated he will pledge to go all the way even if he en- counters setbacks in early pri- Senator McCarthy Hopes To Unite Viet Opposition maries. ' Inherent in this is his obvious belief that some of the score or more or organizations that have been springing up to push Sena- tor Robert F. Kennedy (Dem. N.Y.) as an anti-war candidate will turn to him if they become convinced Kennedy means what he says when he asserts he wil not run.

Thus far Mc- Carthy's crusade seems to have attracted little attention in the state which holds the first primary, March 12. As far as McCarthy is con- cerned, the big one will be the June 4 California primary. A "Citizens for Kennedy in 1968" group has welcomed Mc- Carthy into the race in behalf of "disturbed Democrats," but has made it clear that if Johnson should step aside, they would support the New York senator and not his Minnesota col- league. The Louis Harris poll reported finding that Kennedy, whose views on Vietnam appear closer to McCarthy's than Johnson's, now leads Johnson by a 52- to 32-per-cent margin among vot- see as the 1968 Democratic nominee. The Harris sampling com- pared with a Kennedy lead of 42-41 per cent in September, 1966, and 48-39 per cent just a month ago. The poll, copyrighted by the Washington Post, found more than half those it interviewed felt Kennedy had many of the same "outstanding qualities" as Kennedy.

De Gaulle told a Paris press) conference earlier in the day Paul Martin Raps Socred OTTAWA (CP) -- External Affairs Minister Martin said Monday Premier Manning's views on French language rights in Canada are not shared by most English-Canadians. The Alberta Social Credit pre- mier recently objected to suggestions that use of French outside Quebec be given further constitutional guarantees. Mr. Martin's rebuttal came in the Commons after David Lewis (NDP-York South) asked wheth- er the federal government posi- tion favoring constitutional guarantee would be retained in the face of Mr. Manning's stand, Mr. Lewis sought assurance from Mr. Martin that the) exsisting federal position would) be put forward at the federal-| provincial constitutional confer-| ence next year. | sovereign and master of its ex- istence." The Canadian federal government had put French - speaking Canadians "in a posi- tion of inferiority." Mr. Diefenbaker, former prime minister and Conserva- tive leader, said in an interview that de Gaulle disregarded in- ternational comity last summer) by calling for a free Quebec, but Mr. Pearson gave the gen- eral a "gentle slap" when the people of Canada wanted a statement telling him to mind his own business. "T predicted then that the un- certain and pusillanimous stand taken by the prime minister re- garding President de Gaulle's unwarranted and unjustifiable expression of views would only lead de Gaulle to believe he could say anything and get away with it." The French president's mis- chief-making demands reproba- tion, Mr. Diefenbaker said in an interview. At the same time, however, Mr. Diefenbaker condemned Mr. Pearson for a speech Mon- day criticizing France over its opposition to British entry into the European Common Market. As much as Canada may favor British membership, the matter was not Canada's busi- ness. the copper price increase. Canada Defended MONTREAL (CP) -- Jean- Luc Pepin, federal minister of energy, mines and resources, said Monday a politically inde- pendent Quebec in association with the rest of Canada on a common market basis would eventually return to the federal fold. In a strong defence of federal- ism in a speech to the Montreal Reform Club, Mr. Pepin at- tacked Rene Levesque's thesis that a "sovereign" Quebec could survive if it were linked to the rest of Canada in an eco- nomic union similar to the Eu- ropean Common Market. Using the example of the ECM itself, he said all such eco- nomic unions, with their trade and tariff agreements, essential- ly involve political unity as well. "The European Common Mar- ket, though constructed on progressive ideals, leads inevi- tably to a political association of the federal type." Hence, a_ separate Quebec linked to Canada in a loose eco- nomic union even of a type completely different from the ECM would eventually return to the federal structure. Without giving the said it precisely, Mr. Martin said it must be borne in mind that org Manning views are not typical. Most English-Canadians took a more flexible view. Mr. Manning's rejection of constitutional guarantees for the French language outside Que- bec was contained in a letter to Prime Minister Pearson accept- ing the federal invitation to the constitutional conference. Mr. Martin also indicated to Mr. Lewis there will be no change in the decision to re- strict federal attendance at the Ontario-sponsored Confederation of Tomorrow conference to four) official observers. Mr. Lewis asked whether there would be a change to per-} mit attendance of federal cabi- net ministers, servers, at the conference which opened in Toronto Monday. at least as ob-/ | in a Savings Depos: culates interest on a community | of quiet elegance || located in oshawa's northern residential area.
