society. Those who can af- ford it least are being shaf- ted while the corporations have learned to make even greater profits,” Reid said. I consider a potential Con- servative cabinet composed of men like Robert Stanfield, George Hees. Duff Roblin, General Jean-Guy Allard and Stephen Roman." said NDPer Reid. AGONIZING PROBLEMS He sees the election as being in the midst of serious agonizing problems includ- ing inflation, a housing cri- sis. high integest rates. Pa- rents face an anxious and in- secure future for themselves and their children while senior citizens remain in genteel poverty. At the same time the corporations gather higher and higher profits. “It would seem there is‘ an unfair distribution of burdens and rewards in this n . .I wonder how this prime minister and the men around him can represent my interests. your interests. or the interests of most people in this riding. The same question applies when "The task of sensitizing the two old parties is a tough one. When you look at the names in the Liberal front benches. you associate the faces of John Turner, C. M. ‘Bud' Drury, Otto Lang, Pierre Elliott Tru- deau. Do these men of pro- perty and standing really understand our problems and anxieties when we tally a grocery bill, buy shoes for our children, receive den- tists’ statements? Do they even share our burdens in tough times? a good clear picture of the character of the riding." said Reid. “This is the second time in just two years that I have been given the privilege and responsibility of being the New Democratic Party’s can- didate in York North. As in 1972 the dealsion to run is a difficult one to make. But it was made in the light of more information than I have had ever before. This time we know who our oppo- sition is. This time we have The main theme struck in the speeches of candidate Reid and guest speaker Mac- Donald seemed to be that the party believes the Cana- dian people want a fresh new government with a fresh new outlook, without ties to the status quo and the pri- vileged interests and corpo- rate eli-te, Since the Conser- vatives and Liberals are stalemated in a struggle for the same position, the party hopes the disatisfied voters will swing to a really diffe- rent party with fresh ideas and leaders. Reid was nominated by his campaign manager, Harold Kapaln 01‘ 49 Weathentone Crescent, Willowdale, an executive member of the York Mills (Provincial) NDP Association. The meeting was chaired by Roy Clifton of 105 Woodlane, Richmond Hill, past president and long time executive member of the York Centre (Provin- ciall NDP Association. a former provincial candidate. TEACHES 1N MARKHA-M For several years a high school teacher at Richmond Hill, candidate Reid is now a teacher at Markham‘s Wil- liam Armstrong Public School, 7 Major Buttons Drive. He plans to continue teaching during the cam- paign and now resides at 171 Fairlawn Avenue, N o M h 3 York. The federal riding of North York includes most of the York Region provincial riding of York Centre and the North York Riding of York Mills. The N'DP's nomination con- vention was held without public fanfare at the Rich- mond Hill High School cafe- teria with only party mem- bers notified by mail. There was a small turnout of about 30 members and campaign workers with nobody offer- ing to compete with Reid for the nomination. “This time we know York North can be won for the New Democratic Party,” said York History Teacher Jim Reid, 31, Wednesday of last week as he accepted the NDP‘s federal election no- mination and came out fight- ing for another try at a seat in the House of Com- mons. The party's National Pre- sident Donald MacDonald MLA York South, was on hand to bolster up the cour- age of the NDP standard bearer who ran third in the 1972 when he gathered 11,111 supporting votes.

He said Trudeau has used up two images already. first the swinger and then the philo- sopher. The people won’t be fooled again, even if he comes up with another im- age which is apparently go- ing to be of someone more fighting. "I‘m suggesting the equally balanced sides in the electo- rate to consider the NDP as a real alternative and to even give them pow- er. “We’re not just asking for more NDPs.” said the for- mer provincial party leader. “When the fundamental economic crunch .came, they rthe Liberals) wouldn‘t chal- lenge the power structure of which they are an integral part." said Mac Donald, ad- ding that the Conservative opposition is in the same po- sition as the Liberals and only the NDP is free to do what needs doing in Canada in the present situation National NDP President MacDonald said the Liberals deliberately and calculatedly brought in a budget the NDP couldn't support to cause an early election. “And so, if you beneve in ' can at 10:30 am sunday. the Value of this promise { Roger and Pam RaWhngS of and if you believe in the the Evangelical School for virtue of our cause.
