» Tie Guardian, sor, chars Feb. 8, 1962. OTTAWA JOTTINGS Common Market Issue Sparks House Exchange By Mrs. Margaret Macdonald , (M.LP. + ) The end of each brings the problem of choosing out- standing features to report. It is natural that a country as geographically as . & federal government with as many departments. and 265 varied individuals give un- limited opportunity for com- ment. This is even more clear when sensitivities are exaggerated in e session. . always, there are good hes and poor speeches in the House of Commons. Several cabinet ministers. have been particularily outstanding and have raised their reputation as our best speakers. - Hon. Donald Fleming, minis- ter of finance, dealt thoroughly with the Common Market. Hon Davie Fulton, minister of jus- tice, gave a broad coverage of government accomplishment, complimenting his fellow minis- ters on their efforts and results. Hon. Gordon Churchill, minis- ter of veterans affairs, made a rousing ‘‘off the cuff’ speech in defence of Canada’s position in _ world affairs. * \ Much of the Common Market talks have’ been premature and accordingly confused and founded. It was timely that Mr. Fleming early in the éssion, ld speak on this“FEveryone ofnizes that nada’s econ- omy will be affeCted by the steps taken by Great Britain and the United Sfates, but the fact re- that these steps have not ma been taken and it is useless Z to insist on Canadian govern- ZA a Es faith inte tiited tine fo ment decisions, not only before the facts are known, but before there are any facts. So far the government has been doing all it can do in assessing the vari- ous alternatives. Mr. Fleming spoke forcefully en this point: ‘The Leader of the Oppositionand some news- papers were saying long ago that the United Kingdom was going into the Common Market. They were saying this even before the U.K. had decided to negotiate. Their statement has been con- tradicted by the United King- dom government itself, and [ think they know their own busi- ness better than the leader of the Opposition knows it for them. We are, of course, fully aware of the possibility of the United Kingdom joining the ‘Common Market and our plan- ning takes this possibility into account. In the present stage, current interest is concentrated an the terms which are under negotiation.” The minister further express- dom: “If the United Kingdom’ were ‘to center the Common Market without taking steps to protect Commonwealth, including Can- adian interests, the results could be Very grave for Canada and for the Commonwealth. Our trade, both in agriculture and industry, could suffer enormous losses and dislocation. In the course of our discus- sions, with the United Kingdom ~we have. received assurances that “hey will safeguard the vital interests of the Commonwealth er they will not go into the Com- mon Market. We value those as- surances and we appreciate them. We recognize the difficul- ties which confront the United Kingdom and the heavy respon- sibilities which. they bear in these negotiation?.” - From time to time as issues appear,-I am grasping and ab- acter of certain cabinet minis- ters. ee One that may not be frequent- ly enough mentioned in newspa- per articles generally is the hard working minister of jus- | tice, Hon. Davie Fulton. Davie, his mother’s family name and -not a nickname. com. | es from a political family. His father was successively provin- cial secretary, attorney general, and minister of lands and works in the provincial. government of Sir Richard McBride, 1901- | 1909, and was elected as MP for Cariboo, British Columbia, in 1917-1921 as a- Conseryative unionist, His grandfather, A.F.B. Davie and his great uncle Theo- dore Davie were premiers of British Columbia, the latter be- » ing appointed Chief Justice of British Columbia in 1896. Davie is a Rhodes Scholar and attended St. John's.College, Ox- ford in 1937-1939, and then serv- ed during the war in the Cana- dian Army Overseas as com- pany commander with the Sea- forth Highlanders of Canada and as D.A.A.G.
