Friday, March 8, 1968 Hon . Gordon L. Bennett : That's not the topic for Debate Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker: You should stick to the Speech from the Throne, 1968. Keith S. Harrington : Pardon me, Mr. Speaker , pardon me, Mr. Speaker , but I have always understood and I understand by this that I have the latitude to speak about anything that I wish to in here, and I am only speaking on what should now be government policy and isn't! That's what I am speaking on (Applause) It should now be government policy. Hon . Gordon L. Bennett : Really, Mr. Speaker , he is out of order. Several Members: Order, order, order, Mr. Speaker. Some Member: Mr. Speaker , we want a ruling on this thing. Hon . Alexander B. Campbell : Mr. Speaker , there is no ruling; it is out of order. Walter R. Shaw : You are out of order. Keith S. Harrington : I think pre-school education is a good thing. "The total land¬ ings of fisheries have increased 347c last year. My Government has taken steps to alleviate the financial hardships of those affected." And nothing was done for the fishermen who were very hard stricken last year with low catches in Number 8. That's exactly true. "Cold storage facilities will be made more readily available to our fishing industry." I am wondering, Mr. Minister of Industry and Fisheries, if he could answer that question for me? Hon . Cecil A. Miller : You know it all. Keith S. Harrington : I am glad that you recognize that I know it all. (Laughter) Because we don't get any answers from over there. "My Government is encouraged by the progress with its negotiations with the Government of Canada for the establishment, expansion and improvement of parks within the Province." That's one thing they did, they have a park, not a park but a golf course, down in Kings County. Walter R. Shaw : They are raising hay. Keith S. Harrington : Number fifty, it said last year, and this is an important thing, it should be attended to. In August, 1966, it says about the plight of the Canadian National Railway employees that disrupted our communications with Port Borden and , and which the government of that day was unable to solve. And it says "the Director of Transportation was successful in setting up, at Wood Is ¬ lands, to handle traffic, and consultations with all parties concerned have been held, and will continue to be held until a satisfactory solution to the problem relating to continued operation of the ferries at Borden is reached." And it still remains the same today as it did at that time, and if anything should happen tomorrow our transportation facilities across the Strait would be cut off entirely. Now it goes on to say about this famous Medicare too. Medicare, always postponing it. Which one now, is it? Hon . Gordon L. Bennett : 1967 speech or 1968? Some Member : 1966. Keith S. Harrington : 1966, 1967 and 1968 and it may continue for a long time. M. Alban Farmer : Can't take it. Hon . Gordon L. Bennett : 1966 speech, 1965 speech. Keith S. Harrington : And they bring in their report of course, which advises that it is not the most practical thing to have it implemented, and how convenient it is for them, how convenient it is. —215—
