While Commission

(In February 9, 1985, the Re. port oi the Royal Commission on ﬁnancial Arrangements between the Dominion and the Maritime Provinces was transmitted to the Rlaht Honourable R. B. Bennett. Prime Minister of Canada,

This Commission consisted of three members. the Bisht l-lon. curable Sir Thomas White. Chair. man. Honourable J. A. Mathieson and Mr. E. W. Nesbltt.

The Honourable Chief Justice Matrlieson did not concur in the recommendations of the Commis- sion Report. end filed a Memoran- ldum of Dissent which read as fol- ows:

"Unless c romlle had been resorted to an the smaller pm- vinoes had been provided for so as to relieve them from the ne- cessity oi facing immediate and even approximate. taxation. we would tcdsy be a strinil of die- iuiitcd provinces without con~ federation." . It is a fact difficult to explain that by detrrees this fundamental principle has been departed from in practice.

The Report areatiy minimises. lf it does not quite repudiate. the relevance of the question of “Fis- cal Need". when it says the pm- vincial premiers "endeavored to show that their respective Pro- vinces have fulfilled the condition of this test, namely. that the func- tions which the Provinces were dlscharuins were necessary. that such functions were bcin econo- mically osrrled out and t at each Province had exhausted available sources of revenue." The Report ob ects to the acceptance of such ev dence as s justification for such financial assistance as mllht be required to meet these needs. The objection is upon this Iround. namely, "The Government of Dominion; wouldmllsve to! sit ftp judgmen upon cues on as o whether the provincial administra- tions have, or have not. been econ- omical: whether or not a Provin~ cial Government had exhausted all available sources of rwcnlw; and whether all e function tvhich it was exercisinu were ne- cessary in the degree to

The evidence produced before this Commission snowed from ear- 1y days a total absence oi equality in the treatment of the different Provinces in Canada. both in re- gard to money grants by way of subsidy and in the slits of vast areas of Dominion lands to some Provinces without any uniform plans and without any compensa- tion to Provinces that did not share in the partition of the com- mon property.
