Meetings The only negative aspect was the unavoidable bad weather and the necessity to postpone the Bramalea meeting because of the big storm In spite of the weather the meetings were successful as seen by the excellent In volvement in all the discussions It is good Tor poll l leans to hear firsthand how people really feel about issues The meetings centred around three main topics the economy national unity and energy In terms of the economy moat of the discussion focused on skills training in the work force Many people referred to the pages of help wanted ads In the papers that go unanswered while high unemployment still exists A lumber of people raised the point that Canada needs a better apprentice training program It was felt that the technical schools and current manpower training programs are not upgrading skills as fast as technology Is changing The point was strongly made that tax credits should be given to small businesses for their cost of apprentice training Some small businesses have had the experience of training people only to have them lured away shortly thereafter by larger Another point made by business people who were present was the need to focus more Government assistance toward and emphasis on small business as opposed lo the large firms who can more readily look after themselves In regard to this point I have organized a seminar on Government Assistance for Small Business in conjunction with the Brampton Board of Trade and Sheridan College It will be held at the Brampton campus of Sheridan College from Bam tolpm on Wednesday February The seminar will focus on flnan technical design and marketing The Honourable Anthony Abbott Minister of State for Small Business will be the speaker at the noon luncheon Representatives from a variety of government agencies will be present to provide further information Interested business people should contact the Board or Sheridan Concerning the national unity question I found very little deal of commitment on behalf of people wanting to make our Confederation work Most people agreed that getting to know our country firsthand would definitely help lie us together more firmly Transport Minister the Honourable Otto Lang recently announced an In crease in the availability of advanced booking charter flights and a large planned increase in charter class scats on scheduled services Air Canada and CP Air will almost triple the number of charter seats during Ihe peak season An estimated seats will be made available from almost every city in Canada to almost every other city All of this amounts to a substantial improvement In the op for tow priced air travel within Canada As well the Minister of In Trade and Commerce the Honourable Jack Homer outlined a variety of low pric lour packages by air and rail The cheaper rales this will provide or those travel ling across our will be publicized in an advertising campaign nexth month In addition the department of the Secretary of Stale offers a year round national youth ex change program called Open House Canada The program is expected to involve up to 30 young people per year In our own Riding many young people arc taking the necessary steps to become Involved since they read about the program In my recent mailing to all constituents Another Issue raised many times during the meetings was why we do not do a better Job of second language training in the schools I think the time has come to take seriously this point and produce a better language curriculum Financial assistance It available we Just need to become involved and take advantage of It I was somewhat that very few people had strong views on the northern pipeline proposal It should be noted that It Is the largest undertaking of Its kind in the
