THE CANADIAN ECONOMY

EFFECT OF INCOME TAX CHANGES ON ECONOMIC PROBLEMS

NDP

John R. Rodriguez

New Democratic Party

Mr. John Rodriguez (Nickel Belt):

Mr. Speaker, I rise on a matter of urgent and pressing necessity under the provisions of Standing Order 43. In view of the dramatic rise in unemployment, and in view of the principle inherent in the statement by the Minister of Finance (Mr. Turner) that the Syncrude project was exempted from the 1974 budget measures because it was unfair to change the rules in the middle of the game, I move, seconded by the hon. member for Sault Ste. Marie (Mr. Symes):

That the Minister of Finance be instructed to appear immediately before the Standing Committee on Finance, Trade and Economic Affairs to explain what further plans he has to limit his capacity to amend the income tax law and to frustrate its uniform application, and what effect such limitations and the resultant revenue loss will have on the minister's ability to deal with such economic problems as the disastrously high unemployment rate.

OLYMPIC GAMES

SUGGESTION FEDERAL GOVERNMENT ASSUME PART OF DEFICIT-REQUEST FOR UNANIMOUS CONSENT TO MOVE MOTION UNDER S.O. 43

SC

Armand Caouette

Social Credit

Mr. Armand Caouette (Villeneuve):

Mr. Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order 43, I seek the unanimous consent of the House to move an important and very urgent motion.

Since the 1976 Olympic Games which will be held in Montreal, the metropolis of Canada, and which will serve to put not only the province of Quebec but also the whole of Canada in the forefront of the world, may very likely result in a deficit of several hundred million, a deficit which should be assumed by all Canadians, I move, seconded by the hon. member for Richmond (Mr. Beaudoin):

That this House consider the possibility for the federal government of making sure that all deficits incurred for the 1976 Olympic Games and consistent with sound administration will be shared equally by all Canadians, since the whole of Canada will eventually benefit from the publicity and the international prestige of the Olympic Games.
