position of analyzing the economy and other conditions and lions to a climate a government of action That was one of several MP Frank Philbrook mode during a recent year end Interview with this paper There was a move towards more decisive leadership as witnessed by the Inflation program Thais really just started and it still has to evolve as we experience it Strong stand The postal strike was another area where the government look a strong stand in spite of the fact it was hurting everyone It remarkable the support the government got especially from small businessmen who wire hurting financially There a long term pro blem that will continue in the essential services as long as have both the right to collective bargaining and a virtual monopoly on the vice II nous situation and we have lo find an alternate to strike This will be ficult because labor looks at Ihe strike as its pro tection explains the Canadian labor Relations Council is working to bring business labor and govern ment together That agencj I have the answer what has become one of the ihorniest problems facing the it ion According lo Philbrook the postal strike was not any the strike to end all strikes He sees the situation is one where parliament is on Iht horns of a dilemma It is no desire to interfere with fret collective ing In any sector of the and it doesnt want to become a labor relations board passing rulings on pules nut the country at the same lime can continue to be bogged down with such strikes More action Looking over the year Philbrook points to govern ment action in a number of fields Including housing energy a new competition bill a move to form a trading link with the European community moves to control government spend a move to boost the defense department as ex of good ition According to Philbrook the country will hit its target of housing starts in and has set a target of I over the next four years The thrust of the govern ment Involvement is to en courage lenders to put money into low cost housing age builders to build low cost housing and then persuade municipalities lo accept it says the federal government is making money to assist in the ly business servicing land and providing incentives for low cost housing in a variety of ways The new competition bill will guard against misleading advertising and try to assure competition in the face of big power interests exist in the free market system Tht pipeline from Sarnia to Montreal will assist pro viding for one national price for fuel Progress is being in the government effort to develop energy he added Efforts to develop alternate sources of energy like solar energy are still regarded by as being a bit futuristic Plulhrook noted that i had diversified its trading partners and will continue diversification as it seeks greater export markets in Africa Asia and the Caribbean among other places New emphasis The MP noted there was a move underfoot to change the emphasis on foreign aid to foreign trade In other words rather than making gifts of food or money the emphasis will be on assisting under developed countries to de velop resources andtakeparl in world trade This will take the stigma away from foreign aid It is often something that is re sented by both the country receiving aid and by Canadians he said Second open house A second round of open houses to offer tills residents
