B8 Newm a rktU Aurora Wednesday January Report from MPBILL SCOTT i Victoria The Speech from the Throne on Dec opened the Second Session of the Thirty Second Parliament of Canada Speculation for the past few weeks over the speech content generally used to outline the direction the Government intends to take in a new Session has run rampant What was known was that the proposed Canada Health Act would be high on their priority list Also with unemployment remaining the problem it is job creation measures were expected Some measures to assist high interest longterm mortgage holders were hoped for as well In general it was expected to be designed to improve the image of the governing Liberal Party at the expense of a much higher deficit Of course anything announced in the Throne Speech must later appear in legislation and be passed by the House of Commons before it becomes a reality When the Speech was delivered it was somewhatof an anticlimax All of the above were pari of the text but few details of the proposals were included The programs announced spanned all sectors of our society It was divided into five points as follows I to seek fresh approaches to world peace 2 to encourage

provide to develop new partnerships among business labour government and other groups so that together we will build a better future to preserve Medicare increase pensions for the elderly improve public safely extend native rights and further protect the freedom of individuals and 5 to reinforce Canadas identity through enhanced recognition of our cultural heritage and increased support for our creativeartists by new broadcasting telecommunications and copyright policies AJ firs glance at least the creation of a new one billion dollar Youth Opportunity Fund and the emphsis on job creation funding for youth appear welcome at a time when the youth unemployment rale is 185 per cent The- new Minister of State for Youth has a huge task on his her hands if this rate is to be reduced As expected and requested by all Members of Parliament the Canada Works Program will be allocated additional fun ding One new program in this area is the National Voluntary Service provide initiatives to the voluntary sector to hire Canadians The other is a conservation corp Environment 2000 to employ people to carry out reforestation and national park development These hold a promise of being of
