Halton Hills This Week, Wednesday, September 29, 1993 — Page Reed attacks Tory policy on unemployment Halton-Peel Liberal candi- date Julian Reed, Monday issued the following state- ment on et sia unem- ployment si “The bleak cob with the loss of existing jobs and we of new ones is one of the major issues bringing the people of Canada together in this election. To date, the Progressive Conservatives are'continuing to show their callous indif- ference to the needs of the unemployed. For instance, Garth Turner maintains that the government has no place in job creation. Even the Prime Minister has said there will not be much hope for the unemployed in Canada until the year 2000. In other words, the Tories do not plan to do anything to address the plight of 1.6 mil- lion jobless except to slash the federal deficit. They believe that the private sector will then create jobs which will trickle down to the unemployed over the years. Ronald Recent called it Social Darwi This acho ignores the fact that Canadians need jobs right now, as well as at the turn of the century. It also ignores the fact that social programs, on which many unemployed rely, may disap- pear as the Tories slash away at the deficit.

Unlike the Tories, the Liberal Party has spelled out its plans to attack unemploy- ment, both in the short and the long term.
