He said he doesn't know at this time what steps will be taken by the federal government, although federal and provincial officials will be meeting this week to discuss the ramifications of the Supreme Court ruling. Mr. Lawrence said there is a jurisdictional over-lapping on the abortion issue as the federal - government has responsibility for the Criminal Code and the pro- vinces have control over health issues and hospitals. Noting that the Supreme Court Correction A story on page 16 in last week's Port Perry Star about the Durham Torch Relay referred to one of the students as Gary Walker. The article should have said Cary Walker. Sorry for the mistake. judges who ruled on the abortion issue were split 3-2 in their deci- sion, Mr. Lawrence also noted that the three judges who ruled in favour of striking the Criminal Code clause did so for different reasons. And the abortion issue could become further complicated when and if the Supreme Court rules on whether a fetus has rights under the Canadian Charter, the same Charter which the judges ruled strikes down the - restrictions on abortion: access. "Quite frankly," he said, "I'm not sure at this time just where we (federal government) will be go- ing on this issue." Public reaction to the Supreme Court ruling has been swift, with the phones in his Ottawa office and constituency offices ringing constantly since ruling with the vast majority of the callers ex- pressing their opposition and anger about it. Editorial Comments | (From page 4) ty, and another Minister, Marcel Masse is in hot water over an un- ~ disclosed campaign contribution. Obviously, the buck has to stop somewhere and all of this has landed squarely on the shoulders of the Prime Minister. But really, . the latest fiasco shows a remarkable lack of savvy on the part of Michel Cote. He called it an "'error of omission' when he failed to disclose the $250,000 personal loan from a Quebec City buddy. Is that Mulroney's fault? This guy is trying to run a country, fac- ing an election this year. Should the blame land at his feet if one of his ministers takes a big personal loan and fails to disclose it? Hardly. But it's simply another example of a government that appears to be out of control. - The Prime Minister has been shafted by some incredibly lousy judgements on the part of those in his Cabinet. Battered, bruised and dazed, he must be wondering what other surprise his Cabinet members have in store for him. It's here!
