R 4 Winnipeg free october 1973 liberals get stronger drawn comment from labor Minuter Jean the Man who will Moat often have to Deal with these men when or if the election in indeed while the Quebec unions had apparently loss much of their impetus to wards common action after last years general strike in the Public the pre Miers attacks May have helped to draw them closer together there have been silly things too like the launching by the Premier of a Book on the James Bay program which Bourassa por trays As an example of How the liberals Are working to strengthen the Economy of the Premier apparently forgot that the Case is still before the courts and thus he must face a possible con tempt an ironic Posi Tion for the Man who set himself up As the defender of Law and order during october 1970 and the 1972 Gen eral the of disobeyed the government and the the Premier May have Only offended the there was the Case of a 1 Montre Alarea Liberal association holding a convention to nominate a candidate Only to see the election ruled out of order and another candidate named from Quebec immigration minister Jean Bienvenue first was sup posed to have then to be nominated in his old Riding of Matane and finally was invited to run in a Mon Treal the Liberal Campaign apparently directed against the parti contained a reference to the Balkans nation of Canada which would result from a separatist Victory turning Quebec into another roman the romanian Ambas Sador to predict but despite such minor the Premier has Al ready convinced a reason Able number of Quebe cers that his party accomplish in e n t s have been Worth among them Are civil servants Claude Jacques and Yves Michaud who before he be came the provinces High commissioner for external cooperation was a Liberal member of the National As Liber als and Union National members Are campaigning for the Inq As Well As Many highly respected local candidates including the eng Lis speaking mayor of a an Independent Quebec is presented As a logical move for a mature people who Nave developed past the stage of the quiet revolution which brought the end to the old Duplessis As Yves Michaud said at a Public meeting Here last we Are fed up with hyphenated the Only solution is for us to be come citizens of our own the liberals have been arguing that separation from Canada would be an eco nomic it was response to this in that the pm prepared a prot budget of an Independent based on the Assumption that such separation would be achieved party thinkers created a document which showed actuarial expertise and logical while most of the Adverse criticism has come from the political opponents of the parti most Edito dial writers Here in both the English and the French press see it As a competent piece of work which cannot be easily however the Assumption that the separation of que Bee from Canada would be brought about peacefully is a Large As is the Beliel that such separation would not cause economic Dis Loca As for the rest of the pm platform in this the party seems to be presenting itself As a group of Liberal minded not too Dif Gierent from those in the lib eral party with tendencies towards democratic social the Only major Dif their seem to is a belief in Independence for he the More Radical members of the party have been kept under wraps and the party has been producing slogans like i have a hankering for Quebec and for a True the in have Peen so Subtle that until recently a fair number of the provinces citizens did not apparently even identify them with the parti Quebe As for the it can be said that they of v i o us 1 y have a response from that group of que Beers who Are upset with dig big big government and big Dupuis claims he has made inroads in the big and this is very hard to As Are his claims that he is interesting an increasing number of English que while his clashes with the provinces newsmen doubt less give cause for glee to his staunch supporters it can be asked if they Are doing him any Good among those undecided who might be persuaded to vote for the liberals were the first party to nominate a full slate of 110 and Liberal advertising is obvious on television and radio the party has even purchased time on United states television pro Grams picked up on this Side of the the parti quebecois has also completed its slate and seems to be attracting More of its opponents attention than any other its candidates Are not the usual tag and Bobtail that separatist movements used to attract and include Many Middle the Road journalists have most often come in for personal
