Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - February 10, 1968, Winnipeg, Manitoba Winnipeg free press saturday february 10, 1968 nothing can Stop it Canada is changing by Peter Newman Ottawa special the Cataract of news produced this con Ference partly by a concentration on specifics its most significant aspect that a fundamental rearrangement in the life of this nation is now under Way and nothing can Stop it. Deep historical and psychological tides Are carrying us into uncharted territory As the old political and moral orders crumble and a wholly new alignment of social forces takes their place. The Quality of Canadian life our values expectations and perceptions Are undergoing a Radical change. The consensus of 1867, which first brought us to Gether w longer prevails. It was based on a world forever and messes. Bennett and Man Ninf a new kind of Canada is being consider less than five years Agorou july 8, George Mcilraith the then minister of transport Rose in the House of commons to that the name of trans Canada airlines could not Ber changed to air Canada. A he gave which was accepted without comment was that the Cost of repainting the aircraft fuselages was too High. But everyone knew that the real cause for the govern ment s hesitation was that giving the National airline a new French sounding name might produce serious resentment in English Canada. Agreement reached now Only 55 months later the 11 Heads of Canada s Ern ments have reached agree ment for Equality across the. Nation and for what amounts to the eventual re drafting the British North America act to take Quebec s aspirations More directly into account All with the general approbation of English Canada. It s not that the constitutional conference conclusively solved any problems but it started the process of remaking the nation. The Tough confrontations remained to be faced. The television coverage of the meetings made it obvious that the stand Pat postures of the . And Alberta premiers has become irrelevant and maybe even absurd. Or. Bennett and or Manning they represent can make revising process More difficult but they will not Joe Able to probably the Best approach to analysing the conference s achievements and a Takores is to regard it As Ait International United nations Type gathering convened to reach some kind of consensus Between warring states. The first stage in such a negotiation the prerequisite to any agreement is the establishment of a plateau of Confidence on which solutions can be negotiated. This is exactly what the conference brought about. It established the machinery that can work out the answers. It not produce any of the answers themselves. Major contribution of the conference was to crystallize the True As diet Init from rep advertised positions of both Ottawa and Quebec. The Federal government for the first time outlined exactly what it considers to be negotiable and what Powers it intends to retain. Fair play there was Backbone in the Federal position but also a sense of flexibility and fair play. Quebec also made its de mands much clearer than Ever before. Now we know what kind of special required to status would be fulfil Daniel John son s pledge of Equality for his province that he has always claimed was the Only alternative to Independence. Most important perhaps the Quebec Premier s dismissal of the importance of entrenching linguistic rights. Outside his province demonstrated that his real concern is not so much the preservation of the French in the country at Large As with significant additions to the Powers of his own govern ment. The great debate on French English relations thus takes on a new dimension can the citizens of Quebec be represented in any mean. Bagful Way to their Federal maps if the jurisdictions demanded in the Johnson Brief Are granted or will the views of Pierre Trudeau prevail allowing the so called French Canadian nation to flourish in every part of the country undermining the excuse for Quebec to be granted special Powers the intransigence of the Al Berta and British Columbia governments is the main Stumb Ling Block to prime minister Pearson s ingenious formula for an opting in amendment to Trio Constitution linguistic rights. While neither province would have to pass enabling legislation to make the new bilingual Laws apply within its jurisdictions amendment itself would require unanimous consent. Crucial thing to my says constitutional expert or. Eugene really crucial thing is the setting up of we machinery to make a careful joint study of the actual question of the division Powers. Will probably be whittled Down to something we can All accept. I be always taken the position that there can be no substantial diminution of the Powers of the Central govern ment but that we should be willing to look at anything and discuss anything examine any thing to see exactly what it might mean. We be got to get Down to specifics. What Daniel Johnson has been doing up to now is talking in Large terms which might mean anything from peanuts to half the world. If you get Down to a clause by clause Examina Tion of the Constitution then he s going to have to put of or shut up. This is absolute-., by what most happen the clause by clause Examina or. Forsey foresees the possibility that some extra Powers will have to be conceded exclusively to Quebec. I m not scared of any one province having something the other provinces Haven t. There is something of that sort already in existence for nearly every province in the country. Chat by itself does t worry me. That would worry me is any massive Transfer of Canada s Constitution in the past 100 years has adapted itself o an. Incredible economic situations including he tight centralization of the second world War. The new athers of confederation will Lave to apply something close o constitutional Genius to the design of an equally flexible document. What we saw this week was a promising beginning. India to spurn a Paet new Delhi Specia-1 does not intend to sign the nuclear non Prol Ifera Ion treaty submitted at Geneva by the United states and the Oviet Union it was Learned thursday from an authoritative government source.
