To transform political climate v by Peter Newman Ottawa special the first thing that Pierre Trudeau s senior advisors did when they moved into the East Block of the parliament buildings was to install an intercom system so that six of them could be on the line at the same time and hold instantaneous conferences with the prime minister. This tech Nique is already being used by most progressive business firms but in Ottawa where the writing of memos is a sacred rite the move signified a revolution. It s All part of the new style that or. Trudeau and his troupe Are introducing to the Musty Halls of bureaucratic Ottawa. Despite the Trudeau mania phenomenon it is not show Busi Ness that has taken Over Canadian politics. It is with Industrial technology that or. Trudeau s men intend to alter he political climate of the traditional m e a o r n approaches of the senior civil service. Or. Trudeau demonstrated the effectiveness of his unique approach during the Liberal headship convention and the election Campaign. In both instances two new elements were introduced to expand his popularity an Appeal was made directly to the electorate through the mass Media in effect by passing the traditional party apparatus and in the application of this Appeal use was made of the latest and most sophisticated scientific techniques. The philosophical basis for this new kind of participatory politics is the Liberal Leader s View of Man As a multidimensional being. He refuses to perpetuate the Standard View of the voter As a one dimensional figure a Farmer a French Canadian an old age pensioner Etc whose loyalty can be won through specific promises de signed to woo each group. Instead he believes in the thematic approach which puts Forward a general theme such As a just and expects that people will find their own relation to his objectives be attracted by his approach to them and help him make them come True. This requires genuine participation by the people in the governmental process and could if realized broaden the base of Canad an democracy. It emphasizes not so much what the government will do As How it s going to do it. All through both of his Cam p a i g n s or. Trudeau stressed that no Leader can guarantee a country s future Only that he Felt confident he could Deal with the changing tides of the new social currents As they Rise up. To expand popular participation in his government or. Trudeau s first step will be to set in train a wholesale reorganization of his own office. He plans to travel much More than previous incumbents perhaps even to hold regional Cabinet meetings. He will eventually participate in open line television and radio programs to answer citizens questions and gather their complaints. The regional desks that will be established inside the prime minister s office will act like a kind of Domestic external affairs department so that a Well briefed regional Point of View is injected into government decisions at the highest level. At the same time the administration s policy will be disseminated to the regions involved. Always May quit cliche hints Quebec up Robert cliche Quebec Leader of t h e new democratic party hinted Friday that he May retire from Active politics following his fail ure to win a commons seat in the 1965 and 1968 general elections. In a Telephone interview from his Law office in St. Joseph de Beauce 50 Miles South of Here or. Cliche said be is studying tuesday s election results and will announce his final decision in mid september. He dismissed As completely false a report that he is think ing of joining Rene Levesque s Quebec sovereignty movement which seeks to link an Independent Quebec with the rest of can Ada in an economic common Market. Or. Cliche who lost to Liber Al Eric Kierans in Montreal Duvernay tuesday said he had been misrepresented As a separatist by opponents. He emphasis will be on Dia Ogue consultation and Consen sus. I the Pearson generation of Liberal advisors came into Power with of. H. White s Book the making of the president 1960 As the main source of their ideas. If or. Trudeau s group Lias a textbook it s the recently published the new politics by James m. Perry a senior editor of the National observer. The Jook which deals with the expanding technology asic Canadian consensus the country has never had before a consensus in which for the first Ime French canadians could eel they belonged. And no matter How Complex the voting motivations of voters in Quebec As in the other provinces no matter whether by conscious approval or by the default of the other parties it was tile people of Quebec who most strongly endorsed or. Trudeau s Appeal at the polls. It is also the people of Quebec who have risked the most. Consciously or not they have in great measure staked the future of their culture in North Amer Ica on or. Trudeau s ability to carry out his mandate by holding the Canadian people to the promises he charmed them into making one another during his Campaign. Flow Chart mounted in the office of Marc Lalonde or. Trudeau s principal policy advisor. A critical path flow Chart depicts the sequence of events head of time so that All of the elements in a major undertaking such As an election Campaign can be orchestrate to coincide and Climax at the crucial moment the makeup of or. Trudeau s inner Circle clearly reveals that the dominant Strain in their backgrounds is not political science but business administration. Aside from or. Lalonde who has a master of economics degree from Oxford this group consists of Jim Davey who has an Oxford . In physics and was a computer and business management specialist in Mon Pierre Levasseur a master of business administration from the University Western Gordon Gib son a master of business administration from Harvard and Tim Porteous who has a Law degree but had business experience in Montreal before coming to these men As Well As or.
