rhmurphylid sales st service phoue 159 stouffville d like to say this to all canadians n under a liberal government canadians have added every year to the national strength and national unity of canada we have had the greatest expansion of social welfare in our history we have increased our employment our production and our national income every year we have had the greatest expansion of our primary and secondary industries truly an industrial revolution because of the outstanding contribution of the members of our navy army and air force we have been able to do our full share to prevent and to stop communist aggression we have reduced the national debt every year and in the last two years reaped the reward in lower tax rates do we want all that to be continued do you really think its time for a change for a change to a parliament of regional groups a handful of social crediters from the far west a few socialists from the prairies a few more conservatives from ontario or the maritimes and some socalled independents from quebec in such a parliament without the leadership and responsibility of a united national party how could the government help being weak and insecure do we want a weak and divided government to deal with the formidable problems of the next few years i ask you is it really time for a change we believe most canadians want a government which encourages enterprise promotes trade and fosters the exploration and develop ment of our resources and you know it as well as we do that requires balanced budgets paying off debts in prosperous times and a tax structure which while fair to all is adequate to meet these demands for a greater canada vote liberal national liberal federation of canada in ontario riding vote for john lay in north york vote for
