lower and middle income families can afford new housing. To fight pollutio they suggest replacement of‘the automobile, r cycling gases and oils used to heat huge ci buildings, stringent pollution controls, and elimination of the dumping of raw industrial and human wastes in our lakes and rivers. n addition, they suggest the development 0 alternative insecticides to replace those that damage our environment.

Politically, Action Canada seeks to offer Canada an alternative party, especially in re- gards to the Liberals. Emphasis is on the defeat of Trudeau’s government. This is to be achieved by fielding candidates against Liberal M.P.’s or by supporting non-Liberal candidates who endorse Action Canada’s programs and policies.

tion Canad will hold its first-biennial

ppiicies. This convention will i “’ that all party members will I only the delegates. This is to be

accomplished by sending coded telephone num- bers to party members, and then having them 7 telephone their vote to the Regional Office. There it will be tabulated and sent on to the convention floor, where it will be fed into a computer which will record the total vote. In this way, individual members will vote directly for what they want. An acquaintance of Paul Hellyer, Mike McCafferty was employed last spring to set

up Action Councils for the party in the Maritimes. Currently,he is doing volunteer work for tthe party, attempting to bring it up to electoral status in the Fredericton area. He is a member of the NB. Provincial Advisory Council, as well as local representative of the party. He has plans for increasing local enrol- ment, among them the bringing of a guest speaker to the campus. He is highly optimistic as to the party’s future, and believes sincerely that Action Canada offers the best solutions

to our current economic and social problems.
