Political reform talk explores group representation and responsibility
Professor A E Ottewell outlined two main objections to organizing government by economic groups. First, unity among groups is unlikely with examples from Western grain, British Columbia fruit growers, and dairymen. Second, fixing responsibility for legislation would create shifting alliances and “passing the buck.” He proposed two chambers with equal power, one by occupational groups and one by geography, with public referra l mechanisms. The talk emphasized goodwill over machinery and contrasted historic governance forms.
