This year, they again intend to compete in this annual event, but need five more sponsors at $150.00 each. Anyone interested interested can contact one of the players. Dear Sir: A group of concerned citizens citizens met in Trinity United Church here in Bowmanville earlier this spring to,discuss the future of Canada. Sponsored Sponsored by Trinity's Outreach Committee, the meeting produced produced these thoughts: 1. We agree that the loss of Quebec to Canada would be nothing less than a tragedy tragedy for all concerned. Many of us question whether Canada Canada would survive as an independent independent nation without Quebec. Most of the participants participants believed the unity of the country could be maintained maintained but a minority believed believed otherwise. 2. ' We believe that the media have failed us badly in communicating between French and English Canada. Why is it that the incident of the burning of the Quebec flagin Brockville was broadcast broadcast so quickly and widely throughout Quebec while their people learn so little of the efforts in English Canada Canada to encourage knowledge of their language? Is there a conspiracy to carry into Quebec Quebec only the most destructive destructive news- about English Canada? And are we in English English Canada being helped to' understand the Québécois dissatisfaction with Canada? Canada? 3. Canada is by no means perfect or beyond improvement. improvement. For instance, how efficient efficient is our system of government? government? It is remarkable that many of the powers that Quebec now seeks actually actually belong to the provinces, according to the B.N.A. Act. It makes good sense, therefore, therefore, to reconsider the powers powers exercised by provincial and federal governments. Believing this, we are frustrated by the lack of helpful discussion in the media media on this subject. How do other countries apportion these powers? For instance, what might we learn from the Swiss experience of confederation? confederation? In our discussion we became became aware of five categories categories which might help guide this re-consideration of federal-provincial federal-provincial powers: À. Geography. Because pollution in water and air does not respect provincial boundaries and because environmental environmental standards must be uniform, it ; seems to us that environment must be a concern at both federal and provincial levels. Similarly, '.geography makes transpor- 'tation and communication, both national and provincial concerns. B. Economics. If we are to remain a nation, there must be a common currency and the necessary financial and governmental apparatus to sustain it at the federal level and cooperation with the provinces. C. The fact of nationhood. . Any nation must have at least a capitol, a foreign affairs affairs arm and national defence. defence. D. Basic services. We believe believe that any modern nation nation must guarantee its citizens citizens certain levels of health and social care and access to legal resources. Each Canadian Canadian child should be guaranteed guaranteed access to a certain standard standard of education. This is clearly an area where the delineation of powers between between federal and provincial governments becomes more difficult. However, the necessity necessity for national standards standards in some fields and for the most efficient distribution distribution of services provides some basis for discussion. Our experience in the health field indicates that the marrying marrying of national standards and resources with provincial provincial implementation is possible. possible. E. Culture. Here is the most difficult area as was reflected in our discussion. However, there was broad support for the idea that unless unless a country represents more than economics to its people it cannot survive very long. We were confronted with the fact that we wish to remain Canadians but don't quite know why. Some of our participants said that they felt less Canadian now than when they were growing growing up. Unless we can discern discern a national ethos and support and develop national national symbols we will lose the struggle for Canada in the long term. Therefore,_though a sharing of 'cultural resources resources is needed to respect the distinct nature of our many regions, we cannot have a country very long without national cultural resources. resources. We believe therefore that a critical discussion somewhat somewhat like ours of the sharing of governmental powers must begin in the media within this country. In the struggle between the levels of government for power we find in these five categories some objective bases for discussion. discussion. We all have a right and responsibility to become more knowledgeable in this regard. We believe that out of such a process will come a constitutional arrangement that will give to Quebec and to other provinces also the maximum freedom to govern without sacrificing what is necessary for the future of Canada. We would offer such a proposal to the people of Quebec with the assurance that we wish them to remain remain a part of Canada and can hardly survive as a country without .them. How- \ever, if having offered them as much'-as we can, they re- 0®g, . , unanimous anti-, at; amant that one cannait both leave the family anil enjoy the .benefits!of the family at the same time. .
