Bertrand described the closed conference As positive saying the Federal government displayed a genuine spirit of federalism by making some concessions to the provinces. One of Quebec s requests for example was filled by Ottawa s agreement in principle to give provinces Access to All forms of taxation excepting customs duties. Or. Bertrand complimented prime minister. Trudeau s government by saying it had shown better understanding and was much less inflexible than in the past.

Compared with the february meeting when or. Trudeau and the 10 provincial premiers negotiated before a National television audience for three Days i this session represented a giant step Forward in terms of give and take. The fact that the con Ference ended one Day ahead of scheduled was credited by Many of the premiers to the fact that the talks were in Pri vate. An overwhelming a d v a n said or. Trudeau when he spoke of the in camera talks. I Premier Ross Thatcher of Saskatchewan went even further. I Hope they Don t televise any More of he said. Although i am in favor of open said Premier John Robarts of Ontario i can certainly see the advantage of holding talks in sources close to the Confer ence said the meeting was entirely different than the ear Lier televised version. Premiers were not speaking for the Bene fit of audiences Home and there were none of the Long speeches that dominated the february they said that Premier j. R. Smallwood of Newfoundland who made a Long and eloquent plea for economic development in his province during the february meeting said virtually the same thing within two min utes on thursday. They also said that or. Thatcher who had explained at length to reporters about How he objected to reported Federal plans to spend 90 per cent of its regional develop ment funds in Eastern Canada was extremely Brief in his objections during the closed meet Ings. The same arguments were said a source but they were much Shorter and to the As a result the scheduled three Day meetings were reduced to two Days and virtually All the leaders went away say ing it was one of the Best conferences they had attended. They had also made More pro Gress in difficult constitutional areas than at any previous meeting.

Premier Walter Weir of Mani Toba is campaigning for a provincial election and Premier Jean Jacques Bertrand of que is campaigning for a Leader ship convention. If the proceedings were on said an official it would be very difficult for these men to ignore their campaigns. Every word they uttered would be. Weighed Ottawa up Premier John. Robarts of Ontario said thursday the third Federal provincial conference was the first step towards an equitable Taxa Tion system for All canadians. My god we have gone a Long Way in discussing the constitutional aspects of taxation and to get Down to the nitty Gritty of he said in an inter View. There s a lot to be done and we won t Settle the Constitution Al problems of this country in 48 hours or even in a year but we have discussed the total prob Lem and we have made pro Robarts said that from Ontario s viewpoint the great est achievement of the two Day conference which ended thurs Day was that no government will take action in any Field of shared taxation or in shared Cost programs without adequate prior consultation. We Are now started Down tar s rational Road in which we will the services the Ca Nadian people require without overburdening the taxpayer out of it All will come a much fairer and More equitable tax system for the whole a member of the Ontario delegation credited or. Robarts with being responsible for in eluding in the conference com Munique a statement that in changes in taxing or spending Powers should be made which impair the Power of the federa government to do what need to be done on a National basis.1 let their be no nonsense i about he quoted or. To i Barts As telling the government leaders. My province believe and let s put it in the Constitution so there is no doubt Abou or. Robarts said Only on province disagreed with a com Munique statement that Parlia ment and the Legislatures should have Access to All tax Fields direct and indirect. Remember that this was not a firm conclusion but just thoughts which will go to the continuing committees on the the Premier said. The general conclusion that there should be generally Freer Access to All tax Fields might put the provinces into in direct taxes. But again there Are some qualifications. The Federal government will be free to exercise its taxation Powers across the country but the provinces will restrict theirs to provincial boundaries. We will have to ensure that no product is subjected to provincial taxes by More than one province. This again Means close consultation on taxation matters so Ali at we do not add t6 the Bur Den on the taxpayer. And the taxation Powers must not result in the erection of tax barriers that interfere with inter provincial or. Robarts cautioned that there is no immediate Prospect of any kind of new Federal provincial tax agreement. This was a constitutional re he said. We were look ing at the constitutional aspects of tax and spending Powers not at actual tax agreements. We were discussing taxation in terms Only of what changes might be necessary in the Constitution to provide an equitable taxation system for the whole i or. Robarts said that for on Tario the second major Point in the communique was agreement on the need for a satisfactory formula for determining what is a consensus on National shared Cost programs and for deter mining the compensation paid to. Non participating provinces in programs involving conditional i Grants. Or. Robarts said All govern ment leaders at the conference forgot political considerations when they decided that Allevia Tion of regional disparities should be written in to a Constitution As a Basic goal. We must have a Standard what it Means to be a Cana he said. National programs designed to alleviate regional disparities will be expensive for Ontario wealthiest province in Canada he said but we have got to look at the total Prosperity in any part of Canada Means Prosperity in the Long run for get Way every City has its great hotel for sales meetings Edmonton s is the Ottawa up Atlantic premiers apparently got what they wanted fro the constitutional conference on the Issue of regional agreement that the Constitution should demand its reduction.
