Dr Gordon Ritchie reports Parliament's week on Trudeau's languages bill. The measure would create bilingual districts where 10 percent minority languages qualify residents for government service and legal work. Support exists but practicality and impact remain debated among members.
The piece discusses a pending Post Office bill and its potential impact on Canadian mail rates, pressing for gradual implementation and noting opposition from newspaper interests. It covers budget issues as Hon. E. J. Benson outlines a middle-ground approach amid rising government spending and proposed taxes including a social development levy and life insurance taxation. The broader aim is to balance inflation, public services, and private sector vitality.
House debate begins this week or early next week on the hardship facing Western Canadian farmers. Members express daily concern over crop woes and counties seeking relief as conditions worsen.
Manitoba 4-H enrolment climbs to 9 351 members aged 10 to 21 in 1968 from 9 119 in 1967, with 10 370 projects undertaken. The report notes 2 337 adult leaders, 479 clubs and 1 127 project groups, and a net member gain as new joins exceed departures.
