      in
      teaching
      in
      order
      to
     
     
      show
      his
      sympathy
      for
      the
     
     
      plight
      of
      UPEI's
      undergradu-
     
     
      ates.
      While
      striving
      to
      do
      the
     
     
      same,
      Keith
      Milligan,
      who
     
     
      went
      on
      at
      length
      about
      how
     
     
      easy
      it
      was
      for
      his
      generation
     
     
      after
      university,
      merely
      suc-

      ceeded
      in
      depressing
      everyone.
     
     
      Wayne
      Cheverie
      chose
      a
      dif-
     
     
      ferent
      tactic,
      deciding
      to
      pro-
     
     
      mote
      his
      experience
      in
      dealing
     
     
      with
      Ottawa
      by
      attaching
      him-
     
     
      self
      to
      the
      semi-recent
     
     
      Charlottetown
      Accord
      (that
      the
     
     
      Charlottetown
      Accord
      went
     
     
      down
      in
      bitter
      defeat
      at
      the
     
     
      hands
      of
      the
      Canadian
      popu-

      seemed
      to
      be
      beside
      the
     
     
      point).
     
    

    
     
      The
      bright
      point
      during
     
     
      the
      introductions
      came
      when
     
     
      Danny
      Mullin
      took
      the
      stage.
     
     
      With
      well-timed
      wit,
      and
      even
     
     
      better
      brevity,
      he
      quickly
      won
     
     
      over
      his
      audience.
      After
      a
     
     
      brief
      personal
      history,
      he
      ac-
     
     
      knowledged
      that
      few
      were
      in
     
     
      the
      Pit
      to
      listen
      to
      a
      speech
     
     
      about
      him;
      but
      were
      in
      fact
     
     
      there
      to
      listen
      to
      his
      ideas
      and
     
     
      stands
      on
      various
      student
      is-
     
     
      sues.
      So
      that
      is
      exactly
      what
     
     
      he
      did;
      and
      in
      doing
      so,
      became
     
     
      the
      only
      candidate
      to
      suggest
     
     
      the
      existence
      of
      a
      platform.

      Just
      Answer
      the
      Question
     
     
      A
      Brief
      Summary
      of
      the
      Liberal
      Leadership
      Debate
     
    
   
   
    
     
      The
      introductions
      were
     
     
      followed
      by
      several
      questions
     
     
      from
      the
      audience.
      Two
      in
     
     
      particular
      dealt
      with
      issues
      fac-
     
     
      ing
      our
      student
      body.
      The
      first
     
     
      concerned
      the
      projected
      har-
     
     
      monization
      of
      the
      PST
      and
     
     
      GST,
      an
      what
      effect
      it
      will
     
     
      have
      on
      the
      cost
      of
      books.
      Mr.
     
     
      Cheverie,
      who
      was
      very
      con-
     
     
      cerned
      with
      the
      issue,
      pointed
     
     
      out
      that
      although
      he
      does
      in
     
     
      fact
      have
      an
      idea,
      he
      was
      not
     
     
      ready
      to
      reveal
      it.
      "Tex"
      said
     
     
      he
      would
      follow
      the
      will
      of
     
     
      Islanders,
      whatever
      that
      may
     
     
      be.
      Mr.
      Milligan
      opposed
      the
     
     
      harmonization
      while
      Mr.
     
     
      Mullin,
      tothe
      applause
      of
      many
     
     
      students,
      stated
      he
      flat
      out
      op-
     
     
      posed
      taxes
      on
      books,
      period.

      The
      most
      eye-opening
     
     
      question
      was
      one
      that
      con-
     
     
      cerned
      a
      recent
      tuition
      freeze
     
     
      in
      British
      Columbia.
      When
     
     
      the
      candidates
      were
      asked
      if
      a
     
     
      similar
      occurrence
      could
      hap-
     
     
      pen
      at
      UPEI,
      Mr.
      Cheverie,
     
     
      who
      was
      very
      concerned
      with
     
     
      the
      issue,
      denied
      that
      increased
     
     
      tuition
      had
      anything
      to
      do
      with
     
     
      the
      provincial
      government.
      He
     
     
      asserted
      that
      no
      cuts
      had
      been
     
     
      made
      in
      the
      funding
      to
      post-
     
     
      secondary
      education
      at
      the
      pro-
     
     
      vincial
      level;
      but
      that
      "sugges-
     
    
   
   
    
     
      tions"
      had
      merely
      been
      offered
     
     
      about
      balancing
      the
      budget.
     
     
      Mostof
      the
      candidates
      avoided
     
     
      the
      issue
      altogether,
      except
      for
     
     
      Keith
      Milligan.

      Mr.
      Milligan
      was
      backed
      into
     
     
      a
      corner
      by
      a
      member
      of
      the
     
     
      audience.
      One
      student
      inter-
     
     
      rupted
      his
      speech
      by
      shouting
     
     
      out
      the
      question
      "So
      are
      you
     
     
      going
      to

      answer,
