Speaking in the House oi’ Oom- mons on Feb. t, Mr. John H. Myers, Conservative. (Queens) voiced the views or Prince Edward Island fish- ermen during the debate on a rea- olution introduced by Hon. P.

Veniot (Gloucester) to establish re- frigerator plants at important cen- KNI All h) QIW CUR-Bid tiun t0 tllfl hut method of distribution of the bait required by ‘deep-sea fishermen of the Atlantic coast. crpeci those in the Northumberl ‘ Straits. the Bale dc Oheleur and Gulf of "St. Lawrence.

Mr. Myers said:

"Mr. Spesker—"

An‘ hon. MEMBER: “Another fisherman."

Mr. MYERS: ‘fYcs. another fish- erman." I was just going to remark that some hon. memlurs may think it rather peculiar that a farmer. one who is always proud to declare himself a farmer, should rise cu this occasion to say a few words with reference to the resolution‘ now before the house. I wish however to remind hon. msrnbc oi what to. my mind are two very import- ant facts. The first is that on tlw Atlantic seaboard, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick do not wholly com- prise the maritime provinces. I come from Prince Edward Island, the smallest lvrovince it is true of the threqlnrtldidnotrnclpitfltwas made by a higher power than I, andthereaeonitwesmade so small u that it wasmade so sued- Anc | ‘r reason I have for raisins my voice on behalf of the resolu- tion moved by the hon. member for Gloucester (w. Veniot) is the feel that fully twenty-five per cent of the people in the riding or queens, which I have the honor to represent, earn their living on the sea.

SIIPOIQI IEOLURON

I can assure the house first I am moat heartily in accord with the resolution. I was lust glancing over lt and at first I tholllht 1 would comnemi it for the modesty ci its contents. I notice in the first place it acknowledges, as the hon. mem- ber for North W (Mr- Eeaps) has so very nicely pointed out, that wivate initiative is not sumcient to cone with the present needs of the fishing industry. I quite readily admit that. As to the last graph. I commend the hon. for Gloucester for his mod- esty. a quality that he rarely dis- plays in the house. ne says he is willing to leave the dimensions and theeosteisushclaniatethesvcd Ju t of the Department of Fisheries, but I feel rather inclined to agree with the hon. member for South Oape Breton (Mr. MacDon- ald) and the hon. member for Dig- by-Annapclis (w. Short) that this resolution does not go f" envlllh-

oovaamltrrr ASSISTANCE

"I am quite in earnest when I rise to speck on a motion of this kind. This merit had lime s. i008 way to aid the farmers of the dom- inion, both east and west. in cal’??- ing on the operations of agricul- ture. We have been bonused with reference to the price of wheat; we have been assisted on many occas- ions to secure seed and feed. and the federal government is operat- ing at great expense to this coun- cry but. 1 believe. very wisely. e1- pcrimental farms in every province. The government is giving a great deal of assistance to the farmers with reference to live stock. On two occasions in rny province the fed- vernment sent down inspec- mrg (mm the department here who tested all our cattle for tuberculcsil. and I understand a similar test ll to bs made during the coming year. I am not saying that the far- mers of Canada are receiving any too much attention. This is 800d. It is true that farming is the basic in- dustry of the dominion. yet at the same time I am quite in earnest when I say that similar or at least suitable assistance should be Elven to the fishermen on our sea coast who earn their living in such a haaardmls manner.

I heart- "y elree with what has been said w the hm. member for Antigonlsh- G/uvaborough that a. number of smaller plants suitable for this work widely scattered along the shores of the Maritime Provinces. would serve the fishermen best at ‘much lower cost.

Small Plants Preferable

"Suppose for instance a larile bait collecting and storing plant were established at some centre to serve a-great mileage cf sea coast: you can ace the expense the fishermen would be put tc to get the bait from that plant to their little ports and stages along the shores where they want to use it. It does not matter whether it be shipped by train or motor truck or whether they have to go for it themselves in their gaso- line boats; gasoline costs money. and when they have to go e num- ber of miles icr it you can see how it adds to the cost of their opera- tions. So I heartily agree that a number of smaller plants would mm the needs of the fishermen better than a few larger ones.

I agree with everything that has been said. especially by the hon. ‘ for Dig‘? ‘ “ (Mr. Short), with regard yo the desira- bility of the government or the De- pertinent of Fisheries spending some money to advertise the fish of the Maritime Provinces, and Brit- ish Columbia as well. in the central parts of Oanwdm.

Mr. Myers: “Well, that I shall not enter into, but—"

Mr. Duff: "And Maritime brains."

Mr. Myers: "Oh. I was just com- in‘ to that-something that is uni- versally so‘ highly valued and that can be obtained only by eating fish out oi the Atlantic ocean. So I am in hearty accord with every move that may be made to advertise our fish not only through central Can- ada. but in every part of the world.‘

The Smelt Fishery

"One more thing I wish to say. The hon. member for Antigonish- Guysborough made some observa- tions about the selling of fish. The hon. member for blcrthunrberlmd (Mr. MoDade) said something for which the hon. member for Antig- onish-Guysborough took him to teak. Well. that is part of the game. While I am not a smelt fisherman. yet I live right by a river where smelts are caught in great quantities and I have often talked with the fishermen. It is true. as the hon. member for Antigouish-Ouysbor- ough said. thlt they sell this fish very readily hemlelves. I have seen our men peck the finest srnelts in nice clean white boxes, iced, every- thing done as well as it could la: done. and then ship them on con- signment tothe Boston market and often fit good returns. But many times t y get back scarcely enough to pay the cxpemel. and I have seen a bill come back for the ex- press Ind duty and conailhlnent charges. That has happened time again. It seems to me a great pity that such an industry, carried on by the best and hardieat of our race, could not by some cooperative means, whether under the mar - ing act or by cooperation amofll

Instance For Ihrm laborer

“I have just one other thought in mind. We are doing a great deal for the labouring men and for the farmers, but I think I srn correct when I say that the unemployment insurance bill does not provide for fishermen. well, I suppose we must creep before we walk. The unem- ployment insurance messru-e is a new departure. I have no doubt it isrlghtaodIintendtogiveit my hearty support. but if it works well for the labouring man who is

Donaaea For Equipment

"I was nearly forgetting one other thllili I wish to 10in with the hon. me ‘ far Antlgcnish-Gorysbor- oush. in the wish that assistanm

regard to their equipment. This equipment and their fishing boats cost money. It is true that in Nova Scotia. they use larger boats than we have in Prince Edward Island, yet a fisharmanu boat, engine, traps gear and equipment 0d all kinds, rim into a good deal oi money. I have seen men in Prince Edward Island set out in the spring of the year with a splendid mipment of lobster traps. each costing in the neighbourhood of $2.50. I have see them start out with from one hun- dred to three hund “ traps. and perharps they would not be in the water more than a dsy or two be- fore every trap would be ashore. smashed into a hopeless wreck, and the fishermen would have to do all the work again and go to a greet deal of additional expense. so I would recommend to the depart- ment and to the government that they take steps to bonus our fish- ermen~ in the construction and re- pair of their boats and equipment."
