raise the issue at UNsponsored twoweek conference of recourse proce dures for victims of racial dis crimination The 38yearold Zimbabwe Rhodesianborn investigator said representatives of 36 coun tries will be told of the federal governments refusal to let the human rights commission sift through policy directives memorandums and regulations that are suspected of containing raciallybiased instructions to immigration officers End justifies means impression of course OTTAWA CP Courses given RCMP Security Service officers as late as 1972 left the clear impression that the end justifies the means royal commission into RCMP wrongdoing has been told ln 1970 induction course given at Ottawa headquarters students were told that any evi dence they obtained unlawfully is admissible in court The information was part of pile of documentation tabled late last week in response to re quests by Mr Justice David McDonald in charge of fed eral inquiry into illegal RCMP wrongdoings The documentation provides responses to questions Mc Donald has asked Parliament itself still pro motes this idea Members two years ago repealed wiretap law provision that made evi dence inadmissible where it was gained illegally The jusnfication Ol this is that evidence is evidence no matter how it is gained and if police break the law in gaining it they can be prosecuted later The fact of such prosecutions are rare The result may be the con clusion that an RCMP officer came to in assessing the effect of the 1970 courses that the law could clearly be interpreted to imply that the end justifies the means In were 1972 course students asked whether it was against the law to refuse an ac cused pcrsons request to call lawyer The answer No it was not illegal was based on supporting court cases Our legal branch advises now that there are numerous in cidents in case law where the opposite is cited where cases of this nature were thrown out theofficer said As late as 1972 Mounties were being taught that an ar rested person had no right to call lawyer Rescue planes possible but not yet official OTTAWA CP Defence Minister Allan McKinnon said Sunday he does not object to sending

McKinnon said the military 707flect is being used to rotate personnel stationed at Canadian Farces bases in Germany but we can make planes available if that is the decision The immigration depart ment under the defeated Liberal government and now under the Progressive Con servatives has refused for about year to let the com mission examine its documents and staff for evidence of racism The Liberals took the matter to court hoping to fend off the investigation for good But the matter was not resolved and Conservative Immigration Minister Ron Atkey said recently he plans to pick up where the Liberals left off Miwande said the majority of about 40 complaints of racial discrimination the commission plans to investigate were made against the immigration department all kinds of atrocious
