Students Singing In The Rain Over C-33

OTTAWA (CUP) - Their faces were streaked with red, blue and green.

They were hordes of scream- ing students. They were tooting blowhorns, kazoos and a bevvy of assorted noisemakers, but they weren’t at a football game.

They were, in fact, on Parlia- ment Hill in Ottawa to protest Bill C-33 last Thursday. The noon-hour rally took place on the steps of a chilly, rain-soaked na- tional capitol before the Cana- dian Federation of Students’ lob- bying effort.

Ink from ”Kill the Bill” and other anti-Tory placards had dribbled onto their bearer’s faces.

In between speeches by stu- dent leaders from across Canada the students chanted ”Hey hey, ho ho education cutbacks have got to go,” and ” We want Brian,” as the rain poured down.

Rally organizers didn’t get anything like the 2000 students from Carleton and the University of Ottawa they had planned, but at least 500 showed up.

Bill C-33 will cut federal pay- ments to the provinces for health care and post-secondary educa- tion.

The bill will reduce the growth rate for the payments to the under the Established Pro- grams Financing program (EPF), by one per cent per year. It would be in effect for 1990/91.

Finance Michael Wilson told parliament in April that the reduced growth

rate would cut $200 million in 1991 alone from the payment pro- gram, which will transfer $34 bil- lion to the provinces this year.

Because the EPF represents 23 per cent of all federal spend- ing, Wilson argued, it had to be cut back as part of the conserva- tive deficit-cutting program.

Canadian Federation of Stu- - dents (CFS) researcher Mike Old said C-33 will mean $900 mil-

lion less in federal payments

for post-secondary education be- tween 1991 and 1995.

Ministry of finance officials say although federal spending will be reduced, it will not fall be- low the rate of inflation, and ex- tra payments to poorer provinces will continue.

But C-33 is not the first cut-— back in federal transfer payments. In 1984, the liberal government limited growth in transfer pay- ments as part of it’s ‘6 and 5’ re- straint program.

The Conservatives’ C-96, in- troduced in 1986, reduced the growth rate by two per cent.

Old says between C-96 and C- 33, the total loss to post- sec- ondary education funding will be $6.8 billion by 1995.

”You have to wonder what the feds are doing when Mulroney makes these comments about how education and research are meant to be priorities, and then they turn around and announce these cutbacks,” Canadian Federation of Students chair Jane Arnold said.
