P-arliament Hi!! Alex Shepherd, M.P. Durham Around the foundation of any building there can be, from time to time, little insects wbich, can manage to pull the building down. This is the specter the federal opposition parties and especially so of Preston Manning's launcb of bis so-called vision of Canada this last week. I was doubly sbocked wben I saw their logo "the fresb start team."- This was the logo which my own campaign used in the 1993 election. Indeed ail of Our buttons and literature fear this wording. So mucb for the Reform Party's imagination. And the fresb start bas already arrived. Most people recognize that governments bave to be smaller and more efficient. And most people would like a tax cut but respon- sible people would like to final- ly beat the albatross of govern- ment debt and deficît first. Remember, lower interest rates are for most people right now better tban a tax cut and you get that by judiciously reduc- ing govemnment spending and debt. The most profound depar- ture from logic to me is that party's stand on giving more power to the provinces. I neyer get any letters from people in Durham who want that. Creating a federal government whose only functions relate to monetary policy, international relations, coast guard and the like, will send us furtber down the road to dismemberment and a fractionalization of our country. Indeed Canada is one of the most highly decentralized coun- tries in the world. Thisweek I spoke witb some pharmaceuti- cal representatives. They tell me that getting drug patents to market in Canada is similar to the European Union. After the federal government approves tbem, the provinces go tbrougb a similar approval system last- ing -upward to tbree years adding furtber costs to drugs especially to our seniors. Manning's solution would be to create 10 regimes instead of one; talk about duplication and overlap. People in Canada are con- cerned about their bealthcare systema and rigbtly so. The pre- vious federal government allowed provinces to experiment witb degrees of user-paid meth- ods: the result is diffrent sys- tems in every province in Canada. Clearly there are no national standards. It makes little sense that Canadian snowbirds from Ontario can no longer get medicare wben they visit their relatives in British Columbia. Sometbing is wrong with our thougbts of nation building and indeed, it is this kind of thought process wbich will lead to nation destroying. Personally, I believe that the process should be the.other way around. That the federal gov- ernment should be moving to strengtben the common bonds, whicb include social programs, into a commonality whicb will unite us as a nation. The Conservatives are part of tbe same theme. Tax reduc- tions, even tbough we baven't earned them and even tbough the ones wbo will benefit are the wealthy and not the average Canadians. The member from Sherbrooke, Que., the leader of that party, says we shouldn't challenge Quebee's, legal nigbt to succession in the Supreme Court. This adds furtber grease to the slippery slope we are already on. Fractionalization and eating away at the foundations of our nation seem popular themes from the opposition. Fortunately, the government will stay the course towarld building a stronger Canada both economically and socially.
