OF CANADA
-Strong opposition was taken in the House of Cpmmons last week, W. Chester 5. McLure (Pro.-Con.. Queen's) to I state- ment by the Hon. Mr. Chevrier. Minister of Transport. that the promised carferry "shuttle; ser- "vice" for Prince Edward island this year would have to be on a paying basis. otherwise it would not be continued. Mr. McLu.re's remarks on this subject, to which the Minister made no reply, are quoted as follows in Hansard of -May 5th: ,
Mr. McLure: "On April 20 a question was asked by the mem- ber for Prince about the dual ferry system. or as it is called the shuttle service, during the tourist season. I was astonished at the reply giv- en by the Minister. After grant- ing the request for this shuttle sys- tem for I couple of months". he stated: 1 am instructing the Cana- dian National Railways to maintain records to establish the next fi- nancial results of the operation of the second ferry this year, and if the operating costs are not offset by additional revenues it is distinctly understood that the double service will not be authorized in l95l.'
Terms Not Implemented
"The Minister has no right to make a statement of that kind. If he were to read the terms of Con- federation under which Prince Ed- ward island went into this union in 1873, he would find that the Government is bound to give us that service. Neither he nor any other minister can say that if the service does not pay it will not be continued. The same thing could be said about the car ferry. yet the government of Prince Edward Is- land, in 1873 pledged themselves to give that transportation service.
"As 1 have said many times on the floor of this House, there never has been I full implementation of those terms of Confederation. The only attempt at implementation was the e blishment of the car ferry opera ing between Borden and Tormentlne by the govern- ment of R. L Borden.
"When I hear the Minister mak- ing statements of this type, that a second car ferry will not be op- erated in 1951 if it does not prove to be a paying proposition. 1 can tell him right now that if he tries to live up to that statement he will be subjected to a barrage that will make him think a second time be- fore he makes such a statement.
Mr. Dunning Quoted -.
"I want to say this. and it has been said many times before. that men are on record with regard to our tranmortation question. I have an article here in which the Hon. Charles A. Dunning, while he was Minister of Railways and also I representative of Queen's Couhty, made a statement at I public meeting in Charlottetown. He said this: The only proper and satisfactory, solution to give this Island the service it is entitled to according to the terms of Con- federation of 1873 is an auxiliary service.'
t'I'hat means two boats. Remem- ber this service cannot appear against us as a deficit as it now does, but I shall deal with that later. This article continues: 'It is the essence of the Canadian partnership that the ferry rates as well as the service to and from the Province should be such as to re- lleve it, in so far as possible, of the disadvantages of its island posi- tion. Anything short of this makes for insularltyf
"The Minister said. in his reply to the member for Prince. that he is instructing the Canadian Na- tlonal Railways. Instructions
National Railways. who are the su-bcontractors in this case just as they are the subcontmctors in operating the Abegweit, that they are to give us the service not to yield a profit but to fulfil the terms of union. That service can be nothing less than a daily ser- vice. satisfactory to the Province. and it should be supplied at the lowest possible cost. not to exceed the cost of operating this ferry as a bridge.
Free Transportation "In addition to that. according to the terms of Confederation, we are -intitled to free transportation for

Scores Transport Minister On Car Ferry Statement
all our products. We have not fought for it, but we will never be satisfied, nor will the Province of Prince Edward Island have the terms of Confederation fulfilled. until there is a government in power that will live up to those obligations. Year after year when these estimates are being passed. one finds a reference to a deficit in the operation of the.ferry sys- tern.
”I have spoken about this time and time again on previous oc- casions. It is not a deficit. It may be a deficit to Government operation, but let us contrast it with the canals in Ontario and in Quebec. How much money is spent annually on canals? This year I think for the operating of the canals there is provided the sum of 38 million. How much pro- fit do these canals bring in to the government?
"I understand there is no charge whatsoever for freight moving on those canals. I am not urging that there should be. But it is a service that the government of the Dominion of Canada promised and they are carrying it out in this re- spect.
"Like A Sore Thumb"
"Yet when it comes to the Prov- ince of Prince Edward Island, what do they do? As to the car ferry. we never see I statement showing whether it is I loss or a profit. We are obliged to take the word of the subcontractors. That deficit stands out like a sore thumb. it should be put in there, just the same as is done with reference to canals; it should go in there as a ferry ser- vice and not as a deficit; it looks to the rest of the provinces as if Prince Edward Island was getting a handout year by year on this deficit.
”I am not going to labour this point much further. I still hope that mine of these men in the offices, if the Minister refuses to take it up himself, will see that it is a service and that the deficit can be charged back to the consolidated revenue fund. as it should be. the same as the deficit on the .canals and canal systems.
"I might also mention that we have.every proof to show that our Province has been discriminated against by all the different prov- inces. As we come along to the different items. I am going to deal with some oil those then. At the present time I just wish to bring this matter to the attention of the Minister. and I hope he will give my request some favourable consideration. I hope he will be able to see the difference between a deficit and a service."
Senator Barbour. speaks on Margarine
OTTAWA. May 9 -(CP) -An Ontario Senator who published a newspaper in Kingston Ont., said tonight he has found little public demand for elimination of the eight-per-cent sales tax on mar- garine.
Senator W. Rupert Davies, a Liberal who publishes the Kingston Whig-Standard. said that even if the tax was removed he was not so sure the consumer would get the benefit... The question of col- orlng was more important since it made the product more attract- ive on the dinner table. . Senator Davies spoke on a mot- ion by Senator W. E. Euler (L- ontarlo) that the senate go on xr:ecof'd favoring the removal of the ax.
The motion was criticized and supported by other senators en- tering the debate.
Senator G. H. Barbour (D- Prince Edward island) said that if the tax was removed only the big margarine pm- duoers would benefit. He would be content to leave the matter of the eight-per-cent sales tax in the hands of Finance Min- ktcr Abbott.
As for the coloring of margarine. dairy producers would not oppose the move if margarine manufact- urers oolored the butter substitute green and not yellow. Why did margarine have to be colored yel- low?
senator Barbour said he would Object to anything that would hinder the dairy industry and the farmer. who was the backbone of
Canadian industry. .
