By Terry O'Shaughnessy Like unacclimatised birds wbo must migrate south every winier 10 avoid Canada's barsb winters, federal members of Parliament recenily left their stormy Ottawa posts and headed back to their home ridings. No doubt, ibey were happy t0 be getiing away from the fractious, antagonisiic, and disillusioned group ibai passed for Parliament follow- ing the demise of the Meecb Lake Accord. And in ibis period of Meech fal-out, it certainly looks as though al three major federal parties (at leasi t he last report said ihere were still only îbree) will continue to be inîernally divided on ibis issue wicb bas un- wiiingly served as a watersbed for Canada's very ideniity. .But other issues have also put MPs tbrougb ibe wringer during the lasi session. The proposed Goods and Services Tax, for example, îurned the beai up under most MPs and down- right burned others as iwo former Tory caucus members-Alex Kindy and David Kilgour, botb of Alberta- can atiesi. As for wbat will greet MPs wben îbey returfi home, ihaî's anyone's guess. Certainly ibis country is divided as neyer before and regional pressures will no doubi become even more pronounced ihan tbey usually are. But lest it sound that one feels sonry for ibese beleaguened veterans of the mosi venomous session of parliameni in a long wvile, it must be pointed oui Prort Hlope plant feeling the pinch hi a dogt market- Worker at the Cameco opera- tion ii Port Hope are questioni- ing their future witb the firm as 1991 nears.

Althoug h no one now knows for sure 1991 could again see a sirilar shut-down as being recorded this year. ibat it was a baîtle largely of iheir own making. From the seven-day meeting of first ministers in Ottawa just previ- ous to ihe Meech deadline to the deceiful and manipulative GST cam- paîgn, Canadians are surely wondering what ihey have done to deserve such government. It is difficult to, îhink of a previous time wben our elecied representatives have been held in such low esteem. The faci of the maiter is, the public deserves some answers from ihese MPs. As Churchill might have said about our political leaders: 'never have so few owed so mucb to 50 many". $ay wbaî you will, sucb poor repre'sentation from tbose who ostensibly serve the public must flot go unaccounted for. So, as eacb and every member of Parliament heads oui of the batîle- scarred capital to, reach the hopefully milder climate of their home ridings, make it a point ibis summer to talk to your MP about the issues ihai concern you. Thbe anger, conicern, approval and suggestions orf the public reacb government dcicly ihrough each irepreseniiative. Voiers will flot be serving iheir representatives well by staying mute on the critical issues of ibe day. In ihese cballenging limes, more energy and vision will be demanded of our politi- cians tban ever before. If you suspect thai tbis is flot being supplied from our current crop, ibis summer is the time t0 say so.
