Having
met
the
need
for
a
new
swimming
pool
in
such
magiificent
proportions
it
is
to
be
hoped
that
all
who
use
it
will
pay

the
consideration
it
deserves
by
heat
heating

owned

more
than
anything
it
is
perhaps
a
monument

So
please

dont

please
Pools
like
this
one
are

once

that
A
penny
saved
Some
retaileis
could
not
be
ex
expected
¬
pected
to
wax
enthusiastic
about
it
but
for
parents
trying
to
stretch
the
family
budget
the
school
boards
decisiot
to
go
into
the
school
supplies
business
will
merit
applause
With
prices
continuing
to
rise
despite
the
efforts
of
Ottawa
to
re
restrain
¬
strain
the
economy
any
move
that
coistitutes
savings
is
appreciated
Retaileis
wont
be
forced
out
of
selling
school
supplies
entirely
be
because
¬
cause
the
board
has
confined
the
scheme
to
primary
and
elementary
schools
for
a
start
However
the
proposal
should
statd
a
good
chance
of
achieving
success
because
there
is
little
or
no
gamble
involved
since
it
deals
with
a
built
in
market
Hopefully
then
the
experiment
will
succeed
atd
be
extended
the
following
year
to
the
secondary
schools
where
supplies
cost
con
sideiably
more
for
students
Meantime
the

is

for
helping

Mr

In

Health
Minister
Ralph
Loff
marks
receit
fulminations
against
what
he
has
variously
described
as
sloppy
ad
administration

ministration
and
unrealistic
costs
as
related
to
health
services
throughout
the
length

of

for
any
anyone

one
who
has
been
taking
the

seriously
The
report
in
this
instance
either
iinocently
or
by
design
certainly
strains
the
ci
edibility
of
some
of
Hon
Loffmarks
state
statements

ments
Regarding
hospital
services
the
report
has
this
to
say
It
should
be
toted
that
the
per
capita
costs
of
hospital
care
in
BC
is
significantly
lower
than
the
Canadian
average
The
fact
is
stated
as
an

of
the

of

It

I
can

Its

You

have
this

is

of
a
British
politi

From

to

to

to
ringing
platitude
the

his
virtue
and
holds
out
tr
hope
of
a
better
tomorrow
And
now
here
I
am

with
former
chancellor
of
the
ex

¬
chequer
Reginald
Maudllng
beneath
a
Tory
blue
poster
promising
A
Better
Tomorrow
leading
off
with
an
over
blown
phrase
that
sounds
more
like
Sel
Sellers
¬
lers
than
Sellers
I
wish
to
state
quite
categorically
and
with
all
the
force
at
my
command
Slinking
fish
The
rest
of
his
opening
declamation
Is
lost
to
me
In
a
gale
of
internal
laughter
But
after
a
bit
he
catches
me
with
one
of
those
marvellously
expressive
British
turns-of-phrase
that
are
worth
a
trip
across
a
channel
or
an
ocean
to
hear
Maudllng
seeking
to
explain
away
a
bal
balance
¬
ance
of
payments
deficit
under
the
Tories
in
1964
compared
to
the
current
surplus
under
labor
says
the
Tory
economic
dls
comforture
was
solely
due
to
the
fact
that
laborites
went
around
Europe
cry
crying
¬
ing
stinking
fish
about
this
country
Crying
stinking
fish
Indeed
and
in
Europe
The
rascals
Later
a
questioner
wants
to
know
whe
whether
¬
ther
the
Tories
prophesying
general
economic
doom
is
a
result
of
Labors
policies
have
not
taken
to
crying
stinking
fish
themselves
Quite
untrue
says
Maudllng
These
exchanges
brought
me
no
closer
to
the
pulsing
political
heart
of
Britain
But
they
were
at
least
a
diversion
from
my
own
problem

the

Mr

everything

but
he
went
on
to
point
out
the
difficulties
that
had

since
the
reforms
of
last

which
removed
the

The
same
Is
true
of
Opposition
Leader
Robert
Stanfield
whose
only
forum
Is
the
Commons
and
who
does
not
speak
in
committees
even
as
a
wit
witness
¬
ness
as
members
of
the
cabinet
often
do
Prime
Minister
Trudeau
Is
at
a
similar
disadvantage
but
as
a
prime
sponsor
of
the
reforms
he
presumably
does
not
care
since
he
has
never
placed
a
high
value
on
parliamentary
appearances
or
debates
and
participates
less
than
any
previous
prime
minister
in
the
proceedings
of
Parliament
Mr
Speaker
Lamoureux
in
his
report
to
the
House
talked
of
how
the
full
impact
of
the
parliamentary
reforms
had
been
felt
most
seriously
during
the
last
few
weeks
Additional
space
and
staff
has
had
to
be
provided
for
the
committees
branch
and
heavy
new
loads
have
been
imposed
on
the
translation
and
printing
bureau
On
Tuesday
May
26
he
said
there
were
18
sessions
of
Commons
commit
committees
¬
tees
On
Thursday
May
28
there
were
16
meetings
and
on
Tuesday
of
this
week
there
were
22
As
Mr
Speaker
recited
his
statistics
there
were
shouts
of
approval
from
harassed
MPs
who
have
been
finding
it
increasingly
difficult
to
discharge
their
committee
assignments
and
at
the
same
time
make
even
token
appearances
in
the
House
of
Commons
On
heavy
committee
days
according
to
the
Speaker
the
committees
outdid
the
Commons
in
wordage
by
a
ratio
of
nine
to
one
that
Is
to
say
the
preparation

and

The
metamorphosis
of
parliament
A
further
workload
has
been
Imposed
by
the
growing
practice
of
committees
meeting
outside
the
capital
requiring
supporting
staff
and
adding
to
delays
in
getting
records
printed
Then
there
are
the
mushrooming
sub
subcommittees
¬
committees
whose
proceedings
the
Speaker
said
are
often
as
extensive
as
those
of
the
committees
that
spawn
them
As
an
example
he
said
the
fin
finance
¬
ance
and
external
affairs
commit
committees
¬
tees
each
had
given
birth
to
two
sub
subcommittees
¬
committees
making
six
where
there
had
been
two
Growing
suspicion
Mr
Speaker
refrained
from
suggest
suggesting
¬
ing
that
the
committees
should
be
cut
back
though
It
was
obvious
that
many
opposition
members
would
have
welcomed
the
suggestion
not
only
because
of
the
workload
but
because
of
the
growing
sus
suspicion
¬
picion
that
the
committees
do
more
for
government
back
benchers
than
they
do
for
opposition
MPs
who
traditional
traditionally
¬
ly
find
their
best
forum
in
the
Commons
itself
Instead
Mr
Lamoureux
promised
that
the
hard
pressed
committee
staffs
would
do
better
as
training
and
efficiency
progress
He
said
that
by
next
session
the
proceedings
of
Important
commit
committees
¬
tees
would
be
available
in
printed
form
In
both
languages
In
36
hours
On
less
urgent
proceedings
the
objec
objective
¬
tive
would
be
publication
within
a
week
Thats
a
lot
of
paperwork
the
equiva
equivalent
¬
lent
of
up
to
2000
closely
printed
pages
a
day
in
both
languages
including
the
Commons
Hansard
making
this
the
publication
capital
of
the
nation
if
not
the
world
One
question
remains
will
anybody
read
all
this
stuff
A
question
of
House
discipline
Near
the
close
of
last
weeks
CTV
program
Question
Period
the
Hon
Bud
Drury
touched
on
a
specific
issue
with
wide
implications
He
said
Who
is
responsible
for
disciplinary
action
when
there
is
a
malfeasance
in
the
Government
This
is
the
question
The
answer
is
the
particular
head
of
the
unit
where
the
employee
Is
employed
It
may
be
a
crown
corporation
In
which
case
it
would
be
tho
president
It
may
be
a
department
In
which
case
it
is
the
minister
Questioner
In
this
case
Le
TheBona
venture
you
have
two
ministers
the
Min
Ministers
¬
isters
of
Defence
and
of
Defence
Production
The
deputy
ministers
were
cited
by
the
committee
ie
the
House
Public
Accounts
Committee
In
four
low
lower
¬
er
levels
civil
servants
were
cited
by
the
committee
for
disciplinary
action
Has
any
been
taken
Mr
Drury
No
No
disciplinary
action
has
been
taken
Questioner
Contemplated
Careful
look
Mr
Drury
The
people
concerned
are
studying
this
report
and
as
yet
as
per
perhaps
¬
haps
you
know
It
Is
quite
an
extensive
one
making
a
large
variety
of
suggestions
and
I
think
one
would
be
better
served
by
looking
at
It
carefully
rather
than
precipitately
rushing
into
action
Questioner
What
about
the
suggestion
that
In
England
after
a
report
such
as
that
it
would
have
been
Incumbent
In
terms
of
political
morality
for
the
min
minister
¬
ister
involved
and
the
senior
officials
to
have
resigned
Mr
Drury
I
dont
think
this
Is
the
United
Kingdom
practice
There
Is
quite
a
well
established
convention
over
there
as
to
the
responsibility
of
ministers
in
relation
to
their
departments
and
what
are
the
causes
for
resignation
and
what
are
not
Questioner
What
defence
does
a
minister
have
after
a
report
like
this
in
By
Douglas
Fisher
terms
of
that
particular
ethic
We
have
ministerial
responsibility
here
You
as
head
of
your
department
are
responsible
for
what
goes
on
underneath
Now
weve
had
a
group
of
representatives
of
the
people
who
came
in
and
mado
some
very
strong
criticisms
about
the
way
things
went
on
in
the
department
How
about
minister
ministerial
¬
ial
responsibility
Does
it
or
should
it
involve
the
minister
In
question
resign
resigning
¬
ing
Mr
Drury
Well
it
certainly
is
we
must
accept
the
doctrine
of
ministerial
responsibility
That
is
the
minister
must
accept
responsibility
for
all
that
goes
on
within
the
department
whether
he
knows
about
It
or
not
Whether
he
should
re
resign
¬
sign
as
a
consequence
of
some
malfeas
malfeasance
¬
ance
within
the
department
is
really
a
question
of
judgment
about
which
there
are
no
clearly
defined
rules
Questioner
What
about
some
heads
rol
rolling
¬
ling
If
he
doesnt
resign
and
heads
do
not
roll
Im
speaking
figuratively
then
the
whole
thing
goes
blah
and
v
hat
Is
the
point
of
a
Parliamentary
Investigation
Then
the
program
ran
out
of
time
but
in
the
studio
the
discussion
went
onalong
the
lines
of
this
synopsis
Is
it
fair
to
say
Mr
Drury
that
you
as
head
of
Treasury
Board
are
re
responsible
¬
sponsible
charged
by
law
with
a
role
as
both
management
and
audit
super
supervisor
¬
visor
for
all
Government
departments
and
that
specifically
the
management
func
function
¬
tion
Is
to
oversee
what
departments
are
doing
from
a
program
point
of
view
that
is
their
planning
how
the
programs
are
meeting
objectives
whether
funds
are
being
adequately
spent
Mr
Drury
agreed
that
these
were
his
very
large
responsibilities
and
that
these
emerged
In
such
strength
and
power
only
a
few
years
ago
when
the
Treasury
Board
was
turned
by
statute
Into
a
full
depart
department
¬
ment
Therefore
thered
been
little
chance
and
not
much
public
Interest
to
make
the
Importance
of
this
newi
synoptic
role
known
Then
some
of
theobjectlonsmembersof
Cabinet
have
taken
to
the
actions
of
the
Auditor
General
particularly
those
of
Donald
Macdonald
and
yourself
hinge
on
this
grand
suzerainty
of
Treasury
Board
over
management
and
audit
in
all
Gov
Government
¬
ernment
departments
Mr
Drury
agreed
that
this
was
near
the
nub
of
the
problem
The
Auditor
General
whipped
on
by
the
Public
Accounts
Committee
was
repeatedly
getting
into
subject
areas
and
making
judgments
on
matters
which
were
the
responsibility
of
Treasury
Board
In
effect
then
Mr
Drury
the
team
of
Auditor
General
and
committee
are
invading
ministerial
responsibility
This
raises
a
vital
question
Theres
a
lot
of
popular
prating
about
the
great
work
being
done
and
still
to
come
from
Parliamentary
committees
The
reality
Surely
the
reality
is
that
they
can
cannot
¬
not
go
far
before
they
Invade
or
over
overlap
¬
lap
or
chip
away
from
ministerial
re
responsibility
¬
sponsibility
Isnt
the
idea
of
ministerial
re
responsibility
¬
sponsibility
at
the
heart
of
parliamentary
government
the
Cabinet
system
the
guts
If
you
want
of
what
we
understand
of
this
old
organic
Institution
in
which
Canadian
democracy
functions
Mr
Drury
agreed
that
this
was
the
problem
If
he
sounded
vague
or
un
unprepared
¬
prepared
to
be
definitive
he
would
ask
us
to
remember
that
he
and
his
col
colleagues
¬
leagues
were
very
busy
In
point-to-point
day-to-day
duties
Would
he
agree
that
the
whole
In-
volved
problem
was
being
complicated
by
the
emerging
powers
of
the
Prime
Min
Minister
¬
ister
and
his
office
and
the
apparent
eclipse
of
the
Commons
as
the
focal
point
of
the
system
Perhaps
it
was
very
clear
to
Mr
Drury
that
a
lot
of
hard
thinking
had
to
be
done
about
the
future
of
the
sys
system
¬
tem
and
the
work
of
the
Public
Ac
Accounts
¬
counts
Committee
and
the
Auditor
Gen
General
¬
eral
on
cases
like
the
Bonaventure
was
forcing
forward
an
urgency
of
decis
decisions
¬
ions
soon
And
he
didnt
mean
deci
decisions
¬
sions
on
whether
heads
should
roll

The
attitude
of
Woman
Militant
has
changed
since
World
War
2
when
the
Womens
Army
Corps
busted
its
tunic
trying
to
look
as
feminle
as
possible
Many
aCWAC
refused
a
promotion
because
she
didnt
want
to
out
rank
some
cute
male
private
in
the
Motor
Pool
I
remember
breaking
up
with
a
cuddly
RCAF
WD
sergeant
because
I
couldnt
see
a
successful
marital
union
of
a
tem
temporary
¬
porary
sergeant
paid
her
and
an
acting
sergeant
unpaid
me
I
ran
still
taste
the
salt
of
her
tears
as
she
admitted
that
she
was
about
to
crown
her
stripes
with
all
that
this
meant
in
the
way
of
precedence
at
the
mess

table
Today
women
are
chafing
to
sacrifice
marriage
to
officers

marching
up

Hill
and
down

skirmishing
for

from

it
may
be
extremely
unwise
of
President

to
create
a

to
execute

ripe
for

am
delighted
to
know
that

spend
two
weeks
touring
Japan
Each
student
is
paying
at
least
half
his
own
way
and
most
of
the
rest
has
been
earned
by
hard
work
on
the
part
of
the
group
as
a
whole
We
have
held
Demo
Demolition
¬
lition
Derbies
a
car

a

concerts
bake

We
have
catered
for
or
provided

for
so
many
local
events
that
we
are
now
excellent
short

cooks
and
waitresses
Weve
col
collected

lected
garbage
and
won
talent
shows
Weve
made
a
point
of
earning
our

but
we
have

donations
and
of

we
also
receive
the

As
a
