(Du rham-North uminbcrl anid) There has been much talk and speculat ion hiere these past few days about a sum- mer federal election. fithegan during the Liberal leadership convention, and went into highi gear as soon as the win- ner was announce. Before John Turner could even savour his .accomp!ish- ment after six weeks of' strenuous campaigning, some of his supporters, indicated they wanted him to go)stra- ight into an even more Pgruel Their reasons w\ere oh- vious. Many\ reealled hIow, in 1968, Pierre TrudeIa[ called an etectiion imdaeyafter becoming ieader and rolled to victory on a wave of euphoria. That may look good toý some Liberals at first glance. But thisý isn't 1 968, and Cana- d i anis certa inlyv arcen't eupihorie ight now. Per sonally, l'd welcome an early lection, because the Caniadian people want a change at Ottawa, and- l'm still incined to think that we pr1obably wn't ave an) dcc- [ion uniit later in the fiaîl. Here's why. T'here must be a m inimumi 50 days between the calling of a federal election and the day on which its held. And the election must be oni a Mon- day, uniess it's a holiday.- Mr. Turner is expected to tak e office as PriiNimMinister around the end of tis month. Thus, hie \wouIdl ave to announce an eecii- media tely, 1by July, 2n1dforit to take place on Moniday, August 201h, or caîl l)he dec- tion by July 9th if it is to bie held on August 271lI. As we aIl know, ihr of those election datek woul automatically canicel the long planned \viith\yIthe Queen to the Maitms,1- tario and Manitoba. Thiat would generate much resent- ment in- those partsq of Canada - and Mr. Turner has to turn around -iberall fortunes in Ontario and Manitoba particularly if hie is. o have any chance ofrle- maining as Pime NinistIer. That leads to another qIues,- tion mark about a sumimer election. Throughoui his, leadership campaign, Mr. Turner made it clear lhewnt to put as muich distane zas possible betw\een hmefand the Trudeau admiiiiitaion which so many Canadians have cornte tosor. Put tig a new fIa:ce on that Crossing Guard not warranted The General Purpose com- mittee of the Town of Newcastle receîved a report from the By-lawý enforcement Officer in wýhich it was reported that a crossing guard is not warran ted at the corner of Miil street and Milîson Hill Drive. Council had received a let- ter from Debra Boumne of the Orono Estates requesting a crossing guard at this loca- tion as a safery measure for students walking to the lower grades in the Orono Public Thei Town hiad received a simnilar letter fromi a Mlrs. Debbie Hogenhouit ini Oc- tober of 1983 at whlich riime a survey was takeni and at thiat tîme it was determiiined there was not sufficient ineed for a crossing guard c. The report tocmite on Monday rfcterred ro a similar sutrvey taken recently and it w\as determined by thle By-law enforcementýii officer that conditions hiad not change sufficienly ýover the past few months Wto now wa- rant a crossing guard. Cmiteapproved ithe recommendation. oId buliclî woli't he easy. Il mecans brutally rcstructuring thce cabinet , dumipingý or te\sin a wholc range of unii- popullar policies, and pro- gasand announcing new federal strategies aund objec- tie.That will be virluially impossible in two days or even ine days. 1 doubi ithai MIr. Turner is up to such a task. An early faîll eleet ion is possible but nlot probable, even 1though thle Vat icanl reportedly has indicated P'ope John Parti wouIdl't objeet to a political c:ampaigon during Ilis 1 2-day v\isîII in Septemlber, as longl as thie clection isn't held until after his departure on Septembher 20th. Howýever, anr election camipaignt during thre Pope's isit could not get the media coverage a nlewý Prime Miister \wouId want. It should be worth ai ching \what happens right aftLer thie Pope leaves. An election announced then would be held- November l2th or l9th. After that, wýinter is approacingi, and our weather becomes un- predict able. We've had ss inter elections before. But 1 can tell you as politician th at none of us like them. Perhaps the, last word on 11is subjeet caille fast wcek, lin a letter to ithe editor of the Toronto Globe and Mail by thle Hon. Jack Pickersgill. M r. Pickersgill i S snmethfingili of an eider satemnan i Liberals, a f'ormnier senri or1-c abinile i mninister and long-timie ad- vÈser Io prime m iinisters. He's of a Liberal era and tradition wihJohni Turner certainily prefers th le remnnants of thle Trudeau adinitration. in lus lettertIo the editor, Mr. Pickersgill s-aid hie was "deeped distiressed" by thie specuilation and argued forcefully taaînst an early election. -Lgally an election needn't be calied uintil next year whien thlis goverlnmenlts five-year term iexpires, hec pointed ouit, and thie new Liberal leader should take six or eight mlon- ths to show how he can per- form compared to Briani Mulroney. One might wonder if that's exactlyý what t he Trudeau-era iberials are afraid of. Obv iousýly Mr. Turner wili get a lot of conflicting advice over thle next ew weeks. Het faces ,an almnostimpsil task, and for- the sake of thec coutry\ we al should wishi him wýell during his brief reign as Prime Minister.
