PM OUTLINES TRANSPORTATION POLICY Prime Minister Trudeau last week outlined in Cornwall, plans to improve inter-city and rail transportation. He proposed to improve inter-city service by the introduc- tion of a "super-bus" between Canada's medium-sized centres. These buses will have fair and, reasonable fares and wil provide better termiinal anîd on-board comfort and service. "ON MAKING MINORITY GOVERNMENT WORK" NDP.leader David Lewis is eager to reassure voters that another minority pvernnent will flot necessarily mean another early election. He said it would be the duty of members of Par- liament to make il work "flot for 18 months, but perhaps for two, three, tour years." A Toronto Globe and Mail editorial of June 18, condemrns the NDP - "It forced an election, flot on an issue that was con- trary to the principles or stated aims of the NDP, but on a budget that had concedéd a great deal - perhaps too much - to NDP thinking" The editorial goes on to say that the NDP pledge is hardly reassuring - "The average Canadian did flot want this election, and particuîa.rly fie did flot want it at this lime of year. Tens of thousands of' Canadians will be disfnanchised by the timinig of the election....", "Ail t"-s the New Dernucrats knew when they voted to force an election which - if Mr. Lewis saw his duty then as he secs it for ail members of Parliamrent now - could as weil have been held off until the autumn or la 1er."
