i 1ER FLAVO RS X : : uwt 2 cases PER FAMILY 3x250 mL TETRA BOXES 20 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanvillc. November 16, 1988 Letter to The Editor Dear Editor: As Canadians prepare.for this critical election we are faced with a fundamental choice in direction. Do we choose to restore our balance with the natural world, or are we going to commit our future to the powerful stimulant stimulant of market economics? From the perspective of this writer, we cannot do both. The following analogy will explain why. In many respects, the growth of a society follows the patterns of growth of a single human individual. And growing is very important important to us as children since we cannot function effectively effectively without a full sized body. However, somewhere in our late teens our physical growth stops. Any additional muscle we grow or reserves of calories we might accumulate accumulate after the age of 20 is insignificant in comparison to the successive doublings of childhood. This is a good thing since we couldn't survive survive many more doublings in our basic size. Similarly, a few hundred years ago we discovered that industrial production could be done by machines powered from inanimate energy energy sources. By re-' investing the profits in more of the same, the effects could be multiplied and our material material growth was stimulated dramatically. This procedure procedure has produced a miracle of abundance and it is no wonder many people, see it as the ultimate good for society. society. The size of our economic activity has doubled and doubled again ever since. This has always seemed for the better, until now as a new element enters the picture. Today our societies are so big and so powerful that we are overwhelming the life supporting processes of our planet. Our waters are increasingly increasingly polluted, the atmosphere atmosphere is changing with potentially disastrous results, forests and the fertility of agricultural agricultural land are disap- S taring at an alarming rate. ow many more doublings of economic activity can we survive? ^1 ASSORTED VARIETIES : 206 O K BAG* V CHOICE (2?

When we achieve mature size as individuals, individuals, we don't stop growing, growing, we just change the nature nature of our growth. We learn to use what we have in more and more effective ways, by developing our understanding understanding and skills. It can be the same with society. When you hear that we must control control growth, it doesn't mean stagnation, just that our planet can only tolerate a certain amount of humanity's humanity's material activities. Further Further development must be sustainable within that capacity. capacity. How does this relate to the Canada-U.S. Trade Deal? Market economics is like the growth hormone produced produced by children. The Deal is a major commitment, binding us to follow the United United States in their faith that economic growth comes first, and all else will follow. Unfortunately, Unfortunately, even with supply supply lines to extract resources from much of the world, the U.S. has lost its economic vitality. vitality. They are very much in favour of tne Trade Deal because because it will give their powerful powerful industrial system access access to another half continent of resources with which to continue their material material growth. For this reason alone we would do the U.S. and the world as a whole a favour by saying no to the Trade Deal. Otherwise they would not face up to the limits limits of the Earth for another decade or two, and by then it could well be too late to reverse reverse the degradation of the world's environment. Canada is in a position to choose. Do we support the goal of sustaining tne envi- ronment 2 or do we support growth for growth's sake? The time to decide is November November 21. It is important for us to take our voting seriously.
