Sport Editor Mike Turner left present with his trophy Kinsmen honor HAND report card hc on our superpowers Most Canadians now perceive the policies and weaponry of both superpowers not Just the USSR as the major problem in East West relations This is one conclusion of a survey conducted in 1907 by the Canadian Institute for International Peace and Security The Institute was created by an Act of Parliament in IBM If a report card had been done bos on this survey the murks given by Canadians to each superpower would have been remarkably similar One example is thai per cent of those surveyed believe the USSR Is trying to Increase its in in the world today while fll per cent believe the US is trying to do the same thing High marks for a genuine interest in disarmament were given by per cent to and by per cent to Reagan Sadly one in three dians found neither leader thy on arms control It is legitimate to remember at this point that this survey was con ducted before the December Soviet American treaty on intermediate- range nuclear weapons It could be assumed that now neither country nor lender would be Judged The author of this study Prof Don Munton speculates on why dians now rate American and soviet policies Similarly it seems that forty years of cold peace with the USSR including a decade of detente as well as a few years of Mikhail Gorbachev appealing diplomacy have persuaded Canadians that Soviet handling of world problems Is not all bod Conversely a few decades of US foreign policy pro blems including Vietnam and Nicaragua topped by term or two of Ronald Reagan simplistic and sometimes bellicose rhetoric have Canadians that American of world problems Is not all good The study found that per cent believed Soviet actions were the greatest threat to world peace B per cent thought it was American Much larger percentages thought the greatest was the spread of weapons to smaller countries per cent and the tensions In the Middle East percent In this survey I hear Canadians speaking with a rational moderate and independent voice on global security If you like I were not one of the survey participants it is not late contribute to the impor The Kinsmen Club
