12 the examiner Wednesday July 979 Government ponders refugee problem OTTAWA CPI Politicians are seeing signs of antirefugee sentiment amidst fresh wave of grassroots humanitarianism as the government ponders what to do about the Southeast Asian exodus Immigration Minister Ron Atkey says he is worried alout possible backlash among some groups of Canadians if the government allows too many of the refugees into the country The governmentsponsored quota now is 8000 this year Members of Parliament say telephone calls and letters from constituents are over whelmingly in favor of making room for more refugees But they report receiving protests from minority of voters whom they describe as either racist or fearful that the economy cannot support more newcomers Robert Kaplan Toronto Lib eral MP who has been running oneman crusade advocating 100000 Southeast Asian refugees to Canada this year is highly critical of Atkeys position New Democratic Party MPs discussed negative reaction from constituents at caucus meeting last week but opted to brush it aside and publicly call for lifting the quota to 30000 Kaplan says proof that Cana dian jobs will not be jeopardv ized by larger refugee flow lies in the call by Dennis Mc lermott president of the Canadian Labor Congress for humanitarian aid and an in creased quota McDermott has urged all un ion affiliates and members to do something for the refugees llis officials said labor plan to help the refugees will be an nounced later this week and may include an umbrella spon sorship agreement Kaplan said Atkey could counter the threat of backlash by campaigning with Me Dermott to convince doubtful Canadians that refugees will fill jobs Canadians wont take and will bol stir the economy by creating new demand for housing and other consumer goods Metal rod helps back TORONTO ICP Nola Pin ncy 14yearold from the Vir gin Islands was in good condi tion in Toronto hospital Tues day after undergoing corrective surgery of the spine Dr
