Ellie Barrie Examiner Published by Canadian Newspapers Company Limited 16 Bayfield Street Barrie Ontario Robb PublisherGeneral Manager Walls Editor Emeritus 4The Barrie Examiner Henshaw Managing Editor Tuesday Nov 23 I976 Canadians must think about future of nation Here it is Tuesday week and day after the Quebec election and Canada is still here Hordes of redtoqued French Canadians have not taken to the barricades the Bronfman estates in Montreal have not been festooned with red flags the revolution in Quebec of 1976 is as quiet as the revolution of the 605 We have been listening and reading with greater and greater disbelief to some of the pronoun cements in the media from various pundits Toronto radiotype has decided Levesque and his Parti Quebecois are commie finks which makes us wonder where the erstwhile broad caster has been since 1960 former defence minister reduced in his dotage to scribbling for Toronto tab writes briefly of civil war We know where he has been for the past 15 years and wish more than ever he had not been there Levesque says he will ask Quebecers in two years or maybe three to decide at the polls whether they want separate nation Those not ignorant of Canadian history will recognize one thingLevesque has gone farther than any other Canadian separatist few of whom have been from Quebec Let us assume Quebec does vote for separation Thre are those who would have us believe once the vote is counted separation will be fact But Levesque will have to get separation bill through his legislature and or his cabinet The federal government would have two options open negotiate with Quebec in the hope of keeping Canada unified under different set of rules which is what Trudeau has been talking about lately or taking separation to the Supreme Court of Canada to have the court decide whether Quebec can legally separate The answer would probably be no Whatever the answer the question will probably then go to the judicial committee of the Privy Council in England The Privy Councils answer would probably be No Quebec cannot separate That will bring Quebec back to square one wanting to separate but unable legally to do anything about it The federal government will probably negotiate and the thing Canadians have to worry about then is not Levesque but the federal government and Trudeau Trudeaus history in power has been one of extremes he is either likely to call in the troops if Quebec votes to separate or say fine Quebec go ahead Neither is the right response If Canadians feel as we do at The Examiner then Canada is worth holding together and Canada without Quebec is not Canada We feel strongly that it is going to mean negotiation and compromise and serious rethinking of the struc ture of this country The Maritime provinces Alberta and British Columbia will play at least as large part in the debate as Quebec and the next 100 years of this nation is going to be settled in the next five Talk of civil war stupid unin formed ignorant talk will ac complish nothing If all people of this nation are determined to keep this im possibility we call nation together then we are going to have to think Canadians have unique op portunity to make their own future and that future is not served by the hysterical natterings of those who are talking proof that little lear ning is dangerous thing DOWN MEMORY LANE 25 YEARS AGO IN

Washington to settle serious problems that had arisen with the United States Sir John Macdonald was included on the British team to do some nego tiating for Canada The story of that c0nference must be told at another time but the result was very unsatis factory for Canada The five members of the British delega tion were So c0ncerned about their problems with the US that they neglected to deal with Canadian claims These in cluded reparations for Fenian raids on Canada financed by US sympathizers US fishing in Canadian waters and use of the St Lawrence River and ownership of San Juan Island south of Vancouver Island Macdonald tried to introduce the Canadian claims but had little influence as the junior member of the British delega tion Furthermore the Ameri cans had been told by the Brit ish ambassador to Washington before the conference began that Britain had no desire to retain Canada So they were confident that they could deal with Canada on their own terms later Finally it was agreed not by Macdonald that the US could fish in Canadian waters for 12 years for cash payment to be arbitrated The US also re ceived the right to use the St Lawrence River for navi ation in perpetuity Owners ip of San Juan Island was also to be arbitrated On Nov 23 1877 six years af ter the conference Canada was awarded $55 million for fishing rights The German kaiser was asked to arbitrate the own ership of San Juan Island and awarded it to the although it had been settled originally by the Hudsons Bay Company Canada obviously needed to control her own foreign rela tions but Macdonald was afraid that Britain would abandon Canada especially during Gladstones regime IN IIEQRPRETING THE NEWS UN suddenly alive with Mid ByGEORGEKITCHEN UNITED NATIONS tCP The Middle East after months of stalemate is suddenly alive with intriguing suggestions for settlement of the Arablsracli impasse None of them bear promise of early solution to the deep rooted problems dividing the Arabs and the Israelis but diplomats find them en couraging because they provide sense of movement rather than continued inaction What makes them interesting is that they come largely from the Arabs who have crusaded for more than quarter century on the promise that the only way to solvc Middle East problems was to drive the Israelis into the sea and restore old Palestine One of the most significant of these developments was statement by the foreign affairs spokesman for the Palestine Liberation Organization PLO that the PLO is prepared to ac cept Palestinian state in the Gaza Strip and the West Batik of the Jordan River These are vast tracts of Egyptian and Jor danian territory which Israel seized in the 1967 war and now holds under military occupa tion The new PLO position ob viously was advanced as groun East ideas dwork for resolution which Arab and Third World delegates are about to in troduce in the General Assem bly It calls for the creation of West BankGaza state with Israel turning the territories over to the UN which in turn would pass them along to the PLO The PLO then would establish an independent Palestinian entity Meanwhile in Cairo Presi dent Anwar Sadat has called on the United States to take the in itiative for Middle East peace telling visiting US congres sional delegation that Presidcn telcct Jimmy Carter should step forward once he takes of fice with an American proposal for an Arablsraeli settlement And in the General Assem bly Jordanian delegate Ilazem Nuseibch rose during debate on the Palestinian problem and told the Israeli they have the option of real peace provid ing the inalienable rights of the Palestinians are restored and promised that this does not as you claim mean the dis mantlingof Israel The Soviet Union and its sat ellites
