Davis wili attempt to lead the figlit to keep Quebec within Canada and then to fight for a reformed con- stitution. llWe are very anxious to have Quebec in Con- federation." Davis, a lawyer, also poin- ted out "that there is nothing in our constitution to provide for Quebec to leave Con- federation.'. s eFIRESTONE aCLOSING PROMPTS ePROVINCIAL AID 0 Last week, the Free Press e reported that the Davis t governnient will build the e warelouse next year at a B cost of $60 million. s The government moved relatively quickly to get this 'S project moving because of d the sclieduled closing of 1- Firestone Canada's Whitby > plant on July 18. During that interview, Davis indicated that that was not ail the aid this area could expect. "We are looking at ways to expedite projects in order to create some economic ac- tivity in that area to offset Firestone's closing,"' Davis said. Recently Whitby Mayor Jim Gartshore introduced a unanimously accepted motion to Durham Regional Council urging Davis to bring forward the start up dates of many, already committed, provincial projeets'including not only the warehouse but the con- struction of the new provin- cial courthouse, tIe expan- sion of the Whitby "941 C0. eFREE PHOTO 0F Psychiatric Hospital and the building of the Ministry of Revenue building in Oshawa. Davis also gave what he believed to lie the reasons for Firestone's closing. He attributed it to the fact that the North American automobile' industry was undergoing rapid changes. "What has happened is that the automotive industry is in a period of significant change," lie said. The car Ibuyer, and therefore the tire buyer lias clianged lis .purcliasing habits faster than the in- dustry lias. 111 am quite optimistic that the industry wili, in fact, corne back, that they will make the necessary adjust- ments." Davis believes that the in- dustry will soom be in a position to offer the con- sumer what he is looking for. But the auto manufactors still have to overcome their competition fromn Japan, which lie refered to as the home market's chef rivai for the car buying dollar, and the Europeans. HIS ENERGY POLICY HASN'T CHANGED. In dealing witli the automotive industry, Davis was careful to point out that the major factor,. from the consumer's viewpoint, is the price of gas. And in this respect lie again stated that there must be a domestic price for oil, lower than the world level. "There must be a price for Canada at- somnething iess /l/el4#ne" YOUR CHILD " NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE FOR GROUPS " PROFESSIONAL CHILDREN'S PHOTOG RAPH ER " NO AGE LIMIT " WOODEN PLAQUES AVAILABLE " CHOOSE FROM FINISHED PRINTS " ADDITIONAL PRINTS AVAILABLE AT AFFORDABLE PRICES BALEYID PHARMACY &&UV YPit >MACY LMO LOCATED IN SAFEWAY PLAZA WED.

But he maintained that those price increases sliouid be phased in over a period of time. "Price increases sliould be graduai," lie said. Davis also wants a better system of distributing the money raised through the sale of oil. Despite the recent debate between Davis, the federal government and Aberta Premier Peter Lougliheed, lie blileves that what is good for one part of the country, is good for the entire country as far as a energy pricing and controi system 15 con- cerned. In that same speech, refereci to earlier as the Empire Club Davis said, "I happen to believe that if we have a fair pricing system for energy, and if we had an appropriate fiscal system in this country that ailows for the fair distribution of energy revenues throughout the economy, that Western Canada's good fortune can and should be Canada's good fortune as weil. ", The Premier indicated that Western Canada has a sizable investment in this country, Ontario was carrying the financial bur- den for a long time before the oiù issue in the form of equalization and transfer payments. Those payments helped the then and the present struggling provinces provide an acceptable level of service to their taxpayers. "The billions of dollars of equalizatiofi payments which flowed out of this province both east and west in support of Canadian provinces, where economic performance did flot provide for comparable levels of service, was an investment that Ontarions made, from their paycheques, in, the future of this country.
