april 1968 the month mr trudeau took power since then there has been 100 per cent inflation in canada with a real growth of only 55 per cent monetarists such as milton friedman tell us if governments create or print money faster than the nations real growth it ends up in inflation our past ten years proved their point since april 1968 ottawa has increased our money supply by 156 per cent that increase just equals the countrys real economic growth of 55 per cent plus 100 per cent inflation whether government likes to admit it or not they are the ones who manufacture inflation by printing too much money in relation to the nations real wealth as the economic council of canada has pointed out the federal government is not a neutral participant in the inflationary process if the rate of expansion in the money supply outruns the rate of expansion of purchaseable goods and services for any length of time inflation is inevitable then the council adds from our examination it is clear that the federal govern ment has been the principal benefactor from the rising inflation of recent years strange indeed that government in turn blames labor business or foreign conditions for our high prices stranger still that they claim we need wage and price controls to combat in flation now they even- ask that wage earners should abide by six per cent wage increases when the inflation generated in ottawa will be seven to eight per cent this year such a government decree will result in the average worker losing 300 of buying power in coming months all to accommodate a bloated federal bureaucracy federal spending since the beginning of 1968 has increased 4fe times to the present 45 billion which is 2000 for every man woman and child in the country compared to less than s00 in 1968 i it is not only spending that has increased in ottawa so has the cabinet when mr trudea took over he had a cabinet of 21 now it is 34 there are also 26 parliamentary secret aries to the ministers for a total complement of 60 it is a far cry from the day of prime minister bennett when a wag said as mr bennett walked down the street talking to himself dont interrupt him he is holding a cabinet meeting president carters cabinet is 14 in number the british get by with half our size of cabinet ottawa columist stewart macleod joked last week since the cabinet is mushrooming out of control and is already unwieldy why not invite all 141 liberal mps to join think of all the problems this would eliminate for the prime minister macleod continued he would no longer have to worry about geographic representation he wouldnt have to bear the responsibility for bum appointments and he could have a minister responsible for everything that moves in the country and most im portant it would remove the stigma from those few remaining backbenchers who somehow never make it into cabinet no longer would they hear those dreaded words how come you never got into cabinet macleod went on if the prime minister would just take this advice he could have a 141member cabinet do away with those time consuming caucus meetings boost morale immeasurably and confound the op position which wouldnt have enough critics to go around then whenever a segment of society complained to ottawa trudeau would merely appoint a new minister to show interest in the problem and ottawa would become a fun place again joe blow minister of state for dry cleaning said today or how about mail order minister molly mp trudeau could have a ball dont laugh macleod the pm might do it yet -w- bksi r- produce youll
