Telephone: (416) 655-3346 M 26, J 2, 76 WHITBY FREE PRESS, WEDNESDAY, MAY 26, 1976, PAGE 9 Labor confrontation predicted The "marriage" of the New Democratic Party's political arm and the labor movement since the 1974 federal election could lead to a serious confrontation, former Whitby Mayor Des Newman told the members of the Whitby Lions Club last week. Mr. Newman said he could see the NDP attempting to co-ordinate the English and French Canadian labor movements and politicize them. "I am not anti-union", said Mr. Newman, "but I can see, so to speak, the captive labor group is being politicized into the political reality". He expressed concern about the recent Canadian Labor Congress manifesto,and stated that "you pit labor against management in any industrial society and you get warfare". Mr. Newman pointed out that the NDP has never been able to get into Quebec as a political party, but the labor movement is. very strong in Quebec. If the two elements join and become politicized, a very serious confrontation could develop." he said. In a wide ranging speech which covered a number of topics related to Canada's economic situation, Mr. Newman cited three reasons why Canada is facing economic difficulties in 11)76. The Diefenbaker and Pearson governments began to produce a broad range of social prograns such as medicare, unemployment insurance and educational programs, for which the federal government matched the provincial costs dollar for dollar, he said. The present health cut- backs in Ontario are happen- ing, he said because the federal government is "putting an end to these open-ended programs, and the economy could not sustain this type of -expenditure". Mr. Newman warned that Canadians will continue to see more and more govern- ment restraints on spending, not only in health care, but across the board. One of the main themes of Mr. Newman's address, was that there was no provincial or national strategy to relate to the municipalities. Another cause of the pre- sent economic problems he said, was the federal housing programs of past years which were set up "with no co-ordination with the muni- cipalities". This he called "a vast waste of dollars" which put the whole housing system out of balance. "Sixty per cent of the people in Metro Toronto are no longer capable of buying or owning their own homes", said Mr. Newman. Another cause of the present economic troubles, he said was the federal government spending in excess of $20 billion in the last 10 years on public assistance. "As individuals, we are beginning to feel the lack of co-ordination of federal, provincial and municipal programs", said Mr. Newman, "The municipalities are spending more than 25 per cent of all government spending in the country, but no regard is being given to the cities...Unless we have co-ordination of programs. there will be a conflict of programmingand an incredible waste of dollars". Mr. Newman said he generally supports the federal governnent's wage and price control programs, but pointed out it is a negative progrars that causes unemployment. "We need a comparable positive program for job production", he said. Mr. Newman predicted that Canada is heading for a nine per cent unemploy- ment rate from the present level of 7.4 per cent. "I see no clear positive indication we have bottolned out of this economic situation", he said. "We have to return very soon to the. major develop- ment of a home economy". he said, stating that this meant industry local to Canada and also local or residential industry in the community. Mr. Newman expressed concern about government spending and bureaucracy, stating that 40 per cent of Canada's gross national pro- duct is spent on government a figure surpassed last year only by Sweden. He also said he considered the bureaucracy in the Durham Regional Government is 33 per cent too . large and "installs a cost factor we cannot get out without hurting a lot of people". Commenting on objections to immigration, Mr. Newman said in 10 years Canada will require a flood of immigration to meet the needs of the work force because of the declining birth rate in this country. He pointed out that the Ontario birth rate is presently lower than it was during the Depression of the 1930s when it was 15.4 persons per 1000. Mr. Newman closed his speech by challenging the service clubs to become the thinkers and the leaders in comnunities to understand what is happening, and offer leadership.
