(THE BILL ESSENTIALLY OB-

| | |

JECTIONABLE. Mr. Martin—Mr. Speaker, I shal] not de‘ain the House for any length of time

with the few observations I have to make on thie bill, It is true that we bad a some- what similar measure before the House last session, end som? discussion upon it. Ii is true, also, that the Goverument made a great deal of noi-e about the Francbise Act, and we were Jed to beheve we would have a bill not exactly of the mongrel ‘haracter of th emeasure now before the House. No doubt there were some seriou; otjections to the old franchise laws it was perbaps cumbersome and ex- pensive, but at the same time there was a great deal in that Act which commended itself to the better judgment of our people. It was a Bil! that applied to the whole Dominion and gave uniform franchise to all, in accordance with the principal laid down in the British North America Act.

In

thie Bill now submitted to us by the Gov

ernment, will commend itself to the elect- orsof this Dominion. We will h«ve in this Parliament under this Bill one franchise for Quebec, another for Ontario, auuthie: for New Brunswick, and so on, and in the ca‘e of the province in which [ bave the

hoseur to represent a constituency, I do not think thia Bill is applicable at all. In the first place, we have notin the province @f Prince Edward

True in that

Inland any system of registration. there was a system of regi#tration province over twenty years ago, and according to section &, subsection s er this Bill, if an election for the Dominion House wereto be held there cow the lists that would be used would be the liste prepared over twenty years ago. Bertion 5, Subsection “c” saya :

(c.) The voters’ fists shall be those prepared for the several polling divisions eo e«tablished and which on the day next preceding the day fixed for the nouii-ation of candidates for such Domin- ion election were in force or were last in force ander the Jaws ef that province for the purpose of provis- cial elections,

Now, if an election were held in briace Edwar Island onder this Bill, as it stands, the liste to be used would be lists that were prepared previous to the year 1879 because the Registration Act ina foree in Prince Edwardiftsland bad been repealed in that vear, aud if there was a revision at all, ic must have taken place in eome vear before 1879. [I think that is a very serious oversight in the Bill, so far as it affect- the provinee from which have the honour to come. I do not know by what means the Goverument propose to overcome that diffiiulty. They may get their triends in the loral government of Prince Edward Island to introdace a Registration Aci; but the province for its own purposes es very well withonta Registration Aci,and Pdonot think it would be fair for this Honee or this Geov- erament to impose upon that province the burden and expense of preparing @ eyatem of registration and voters’ lists for the purpose of holding Dominio® elections. That is one insuperable objection whic! will cause me towcte against thie Bill. Thie Bill proposes a retrograde step. Under the old Franchise “Act ve

had a uniform franchise from one end of the Dowminioa to the other; but now we adopt ‘ystem of franchises which may holi in « province to-day, but which may be changed entire'y at the next session of the legislature; and the effect of the operation of the bill will be that the can- didates for this Perbiament wl! not keow

It mav_ require a little more machioery in the Bill than it bas at pres- ent, but it is not an impossible task. This would give usiformity. Perhaps the vb jection may be raised that the Federal Parliament cannot compel the local gov~ ernments to perform that work; but under the provisions of this Bill the Federal Par- liament compels tne local government to do something very nearly a kin to it, be- cause J fiad that section 8 reads as follows:

and giving

such new voters’ fists the provisions of the laws of the province regulating the pre-

aration and revision and briaging into force of the provincial voters’ [istsin such cares shall, as far as posseble, be observed and followed.

lt is bere laid down, that, when the voters’ liste for tue proyloces are more than a year old, the provinces will be com- peiled to make up new lists, The bill im- poses on the provinees new iabour, and [ do not eee why, in order tu have auiformity, we should pot im- pose ou (hem iby fartber ta-k of having the iists for the proviacial legixia ure snd for the House of Commons prepared at she same piace. If that will not prove ruffie!~ ent, I would commend to the hon. Solicitor Generai ihe advisability of baving both the provinciai and Dowsnion lists prepared by joint officers appoiwted by the Dominiou and jocal yovernneuts, ihis would, to some extent, releve the great trouble anu expense tu the electors in attending to more than one Thore rvisionus for the local Levgisiata‘e aud the Dominioa — could be proceeded with simultane - 4 ously and if this would = reqnire more machinery, it would, as regards; gen-ral utility aod practical purposes, re-; move thedefeets of tbis Bill aud a great deal of the labour and expenditure imposed | on candidates boih fur the local legislatures and the Duminieo Parliament.

Ido sot intend to proceed at any great length in furthee discussing this Bul. The; great objection to it is, that it 16 not euch & measure as Lhe constitatiod of this coun- try requires. Canada, we are told, bas late~ ly become a nation, Ide net kiow what has made Canada a nation, but lL am sure, that the introduction of this mongrel fr-« chise i- things warreda would eotitle Canada to be called a nauau. { might proceed aud di-cu-s some of the other clauses, bat, as thev will come «ap again in committee, T shall wait autll tha stave is reached. Tie objections to the B if are, in my vpinion, insuperable; and, unct they are eliminated, L.cannot support it.
