Action on* the Franchise
Editor, The New Canadian:
The disenfranchising
measure
was like a kick below the belt.
Even after two years and more of
being pushed around, we still have
enough good faith in the basic
well meaning intentions of the
Mackenzie King government to
feel this about this kind of legisla
tion, and refuse to accept it as a
matter of course. I think we are
paying the Liberal Government
great tribute when we send wires
of protest, for we think it will
have some influence upon them
and help them to come back to the
road of righteous action.
A campaign to get the section
removed might be entirely in or
der but it advocates a negative
measure. More good is usually’ at
tained in calling for positive activity. We might put our efforts behind a movement to have legislation introduced which will restrict
the franchise to members of the
Liberal Party, and if that proves
successful have a second law pas
sed which will have only a Liberal
candidate nominated so that all
the Canadian citizens who picked
the right ancestors and who belong
to the right political party will
have the privilege to vote the
right way.

HELLO THERE! . . . The twoand-a-half years since Pearl Har
bour have been chaotic, haven’t
they ? For many, the times are
still unsettling; for some, the upheavals are not as violent as they
were, and life begins to mark a
calmer pattern. But, what drastic
changes, you and I have seen!
Once upon a time, from my
front porch I could see the trees
of Central Park in the distance, to
wards the south, and the slopes of
Burnaby to the east. Today I see
only the houses across the narrow
street, still unpaved and dusty.
Once I had but to raise my eyes
to the unchanging line of moun
tains framed within the window of
my pantry, but now my kitchen
window looks out on a tiny square
of a backyard, and the impersonal
back of a house- on another street.
The sky is flat, unrelieved, except
for a pair of poplars braced
against the wanton breezes. Some
times, when I gaze out on this
limited view, my mind’s imagina
tion etches above the visible and
sagging rooftops those remember
ed guardians of the Narrows . . .
the Lions. Because I knew them
once, they are with me always.
I have also, in my little gardenplot, a tiny spruce, barely five in
ches high. This spruce came from
Sandon, and after I had trans
planted it in the heat of last sum
mer, its survival worried me all
the following winter. This spring
it brought forth beautiful new

and rocky promontories rising

The neighbours accentuate the
change from the old life in B. C.
to this. They are as different as
the scenery is different. The born
and bred Ontarian is reserved. He
is chary of speech or friendliness
toward strangers. Even after one
has broken through his reserve,
and has become familiar enough
to exchange views on the temper
amental weather, he remains aloof.
I haven’t decided whether this
trait stems from a consciousness
of superiority or a guard against
timidity. Nevertheless, it is a
characteristic the Ontarian admits
himself.

On the other hand, those im
migrants from the British Isles
are totally different. They are
cheerful, and they share their
cheer with friendly words and
deeds in a surprising assortment
of dialects from Belfast to the
Tweed, from Devonshire to Stokeon-Trent . . . and native London
ers. My ears listen to the Irish
brogue, the Scottish burr, and the
broader speech of the south, the
delightful Cockney. As if these
weren’t enough, ' I met a Negress
from El Paso, Texas, who had the
most fascinating, drawl, soft and
leisurely; a Jamaican with a de
cided British accent; and East In
dian from Mysore whose English
has a quaint and musical accen
tuation. And, being close to the
Yankees I hear often the twang of
Americans. .Altogether, this varied
mixture of accents is going to do
things to my own speech and I
often -wonder what I sound like
now.
Here, too, there are definite
class distinctions between rich and
poor, between educated and not,
between Anglo-Saxon and ‘for
eigner”
A foreigner is anyone
who is not a born-and-bred AngloSaxon Ontarian.

they go right into the long list of

war may have something to do
with this neglect of education,
which fact, I think, is going to pay
bad dividends. This lack of school
ing is reflected in their vague and
blind sort of thinking. Instead of
questioning they accept.

EDUCATION! THE MEDIUM
OF REAL LIVING
The recent socialist upheaval
may be an indication of coming
changes, may be an indication of
new vigour within the industrial
citizenry. Whatever the trend, we
certainly need to discard mosseaten traditions that are kept only
for tradition’s sake, and which
hinder progress during this transition from era to era. Certainty,
the sooner we improve education
systems so that they fit the needs
of the people rather than merely
decorate the surface, the quicker
will the parents and the youth
realize that without education, life
remains on the level of mere exis
tence, that through education life
becomes real living. My goodness!

westerners daring to question the
long-established civilization of the
eastern provinces! Perhaps . . . but
age will show its wrinkles and
stiffening arteries! Too bad Ponce
de Leon never found the Elixer
of life.
. . and if we thought that we
might start a new life in these
provinces east of the Rockies, we
have been hampered by the ordersin-councils affecting only the Jap
anese Canadian. A particularly un
pleasant reminder of the past is
the new amendment to the Elec
tions Act; namely: Clause 5 of
Bill 135. I hesitate to even guess
at the purpose behind that clause,
but its meaning is clear. Once
again we are to be throttled from
taking part in the voice of Canada.
This time we are to be thoroughly
disfranchised throughout Canada,
not just in B. C.
